Guest guest Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Hi... hang in there... we have had great response with high HHV-6.

How long do I try Valtrex by itself before combining another antiviral treatment with it?

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 This may be the 2nd time I'm responding to your post. We don't know that the regression that we often see is actually connected to HHV-6. In fact, most of the typical cases of herpes virus treatment in NT people do not have regressions like we often see here. Additionally, approx. 25% of the families who see gains report they do not see a regression at all. That said, I would keep going and then recheck the titer counts. That will be the real test of how well your child's HHV6 count is being treated. - Stan > > > > what kinds of things do we suspect or know (i.e. supplements, > > vitamins, minerals) > > feed HHV-6. > > > > " My grandson tested high for HHV-6 in October and started > > on Valtrex.
