Mono is EBV - Ebstein Bar Virus...HHV4 - which is VERY common for the public to be carrying...however, healthy people who are exposed to it - are generally able to suppress it - i.e. its dormant... Our Buddie Lyme - is notorious for weakening our immune systems so much that HHV4, HHV5, HHV6 are reactivated...especially 4 & 6...also steroid treatments can reactivate them too... Once reactivated, yes these viruses can cause much more serious issues then when we first came in contact with them...which was as babies and small children... HHV6 & 7 cause "sixth disease" in small children...one of the 6 classic illnesses (rash related) - Anywho - these are viruses that all can be reactivated due to a variety of reasons honestly... just read through an article from NASA in which they are looking to avoid space flight from reactivating such viruses as EBV... OK so now what? Right?? One good treatment for combatting some of these reactivated viruses is Olive Leaf Extract and even Oil of Oregano... these are natural abx and immune support products - which can help beat back the viruses and they are good for treating Lyme as well... Hang in there sweetie - you will be alright Christine edited; used quotes to enlarge text for neuro lyme patients like me. bettyg, iowa leader  Post edited by: Bettyg, at: 09/11/2010 02:34 AM [b]Group Leader Disclaimer[/b]
First and foremost - I am NOT a doctor, anything I share is based on experience & research. I strongly encourage you to discuss any and all information that I share with a health care provider.

"I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road...
And I just can't keep living this way
So starting today, I'm breaking out of this cage
I'm standing up, Imma face my demons
I'm manning up, Imma hold my ground
I've had enough, now I'm so fed up
Time to put my life back together right now" Eminem Not Afraid |
