2 weeks on acyclovir/Aidan

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

We decided to trial acyclovir for my ten year old HF son two weeks

ago, mostly because a friend who's son has exact profile (regressive

ASD, gut,viral issues) uses acyclovir and her son is pretty much

recovered. We have been on LDN since last July with excellent results,

but still seeing signs of viral cycling ie; red spots on upper lip

followed by dark red spots on butt, gut inflammation, and behavioral

deterioration. Aidan has had a history of wierd viral rashes, HSP, and

bacterial overload. He also has a positive ANA, and does best on

antibiotics such as cefzil or amox.

The first week on acyclovir we saw pimpley spots on his chin and some

spots on his legs. Language has absolutely taken off in a big way

nearly from the beginning! His bowels are moving more regularly as

well. This morning when I took him in to school, he walked up to a

young woman in a wheel chair and asked her if her legs hurt, then held

her hands and told her everything would be okay. I was nearly sobbing

it was so damn sweet! Just thought I'd share in case anyone with an

older child is hesitating to try.

Best,
