Rrrr, you, my friend, amaze me. Back in 2011, you were reporting the good results you were seeing when taking this medication. I had learned that the antiviral properties of Aldactone were discovered only last year (March 2016). You were seeing its benefits SIX YEARS AGO!!! Amazing!
It was about five days before I was sure I was feeling better. In fact, I snapped out of it so hard, I was suspicious. But it seems to be an enduring effect. I'll do my best to continue to report my progress; therapeutic effects, side effects, and test results.
I started at a high dose, 200mg/day (100mg x2 daily), to get my system primed. I've had to cut back to about 50mg/day (25mg x2). When I took it on an empty stomach, I got sick to my stomach so I now take it with food.
Brain fog cleared, and my energy levels are much better. The unexplained fevers have stopped. I no longer sleep all weekend. It's still too soon to know if this is placebo effect, so I'm going to continue to take it and be very mindful of how I'm feeling.
Eventually, I'll get my antibodies retested. Jan. 2017, I tested at EBV EA IgG 38.3 (ref. 8.9),EBV VCA IgG >600.0 (ref. 17.9), EBV NA IgG 403.0 (ref. 17.9), EBV VCA IgM <36 (ref. 35.9), HHV6 IgG 10.00 (ref. 0.99).
Thanks for the link. I'm always wanting to learn what I can.
