Re: Lyme, epstein barr, cytomegalovirus Which one?

[Guest guest]

I don't fully understand about the IGg, IGm, etc. but, this has been my

experience:

I was dxed with Lyme, Babesiosis, and HGE in 9/00. Last year my test results

revealed that I had active EBV, CMV, HHV-6 and Parvovirus 19. I had had

arthritic pain from the Lyme and some fatigue but it was nothing like the

fatigue and weakness I experienced with all the viruses. After about 5

months of being debilitated last year, I found information on the 'net about

transfer factors for viruses. With my LLMD's blessing, I tried Immune Care

64 which has transfer factors for EBV, CMV, and HHV-6. Within about 3 weeks

I felt much better. I have continued on this and was able to function,

work, etc. for about 10 months. Now I seem to have a reactivated virus or a

different virus but it is much milder than what I experienced last year.

Right now I'm not sure what happened.

I have been going to a nutrition clinic and I did recently lose lean weight

which has previously been associated with becoming ill.

My understanding has been that the Lyme attacked my immune system so badly

that I was vulnerable to other diseases. The loss of lean weight lowers

immunity so maybe that's what happened recently. I am taking my regular

meds, more immune boosters, and picking up the protein.

You might have Lyme, EBV, CMV, perhaps other viruses or diseases.

I bought the transfer factor products from www.immunitytoday.com and no, I

have no financial interests in the company. The products can be expensive

but Immune Care 64 was the only thing that helped me. I did try anti-viral

med and it seemed to do nothing.

I hope you'll feel better soon.

[ ] Lyme, epstein barr, cytomegalovirus Which one?

I just got the results from the latest test on epstein barr, and the

cytomgalovirus, along with some of the virus like HH6 and HSP.

I did recently have a positive western blot for lyme.

I have felt so bad for a long time but only in Dec had the western

blot.

These other tests for EBV, CMV ect I have done about three other

times. They are always elevated and when I did them it was from

different labs and a year of more in between.

How would I know what makes me feel to rotten?

Its mostly the all over weakness and flue like feeling and

sleepy/spacy.

I have my first appt with a LLD in a couple of weeks and I hate to go

and then be told its these virus and not the lyme.

What has anyone else experienced?

On some of these tests my titers will be extremely high but to the

IGG

and then sometimes they are IGM.

The western blot was 10bands in both IGG and IGM but only cdc postive

in

IGG.

Can having elevated IGG tests make you feel bad if it is a past

infection but and not active?

I don't understand this.

Thanks

Suzanne,

Do you think that these virsus made you feel worse than the lyme?

I know about transfer factor but not the one you mentioned.

I do appreciate you letting me know. I have bougght the one from the

buyers club CFIDS. They have different ones and it was hard to know

what to get. It seems there is a different one for each virus.

I have taken all those herpes meds and they didn't do anything.

Do you think these of the lyme would have caused the excessive

sleepiness.

I think you responded to my question about that.

Thanks,

Sandy
