Hi
I am trying to decide how to move forward with my treatment. I am managing a lot of my symptoms through various treatments but can't seem to identify a treatment that works for symptoms such as sore throats, swollen glands, virus /flu like feeling. I am in a position where I can either:
1) Pay a private doctor to test for cytokines and specific viruses -parovirus 19, HSV 5/6. (Had most of the other viruses/testing) This particular hospital will provide treatment (immunivor) based on the results. The main disadvantage of this option is I would have to pay out £1000 for testing and then also £75 per month for treatment. I'm also sure I can get another type of anti viral if needs be.
2) just start a prescription of LDN. I can get this online via a private doctor but I don't have anyone to monitor me or speak to in relation to this. A big advantage of this is that it only costs £30 per month and apparently is tolerated well.
I just wanted to ask your advice on what to do as I am really struggling to know what would be best for my symptoms. I've been reading that although LDN is used for pain it can help regulate the immune system.
I also think that maybe the first option actually deals with the potential root of the illness rather just dealing with symptoms.
Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
