I understand your frustration about finding the right supplements. I have not posted anything on this sight in a long time because I just find myself saying the same things over and over. It is really hard as a new comer to sift through the huge amount of information that everyone has posted. Here is a list of supplements that have helped me the most. Also... Exercise! You have to try your hardest to get out of bed and walk, or hike or do at home yoga, lift weights, what ever you can find that you enjoy doing. I feel so much better when I force myself to move. My symptoms are fatigue, severe brain fog, swollen lymph glands and a pain on my left chest that comes and goes. I first had Mono about 15 years ago so have been battling this since then, like most everyone in this blog. Here are supplements that help me a bit:
B12 / B6
L-Lysine
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Zinc
D3
C
Monolauren helps many, I am thinking about trying it again.
I hope this helps.

Yes, there are huge amounts of information, and i admit that I have never read through all thirty-something pages. It's just daunting. I was exercising and it was helping me, but suddenly the fatigue came back so heavy that any exercise at all made me fold like a house of cards. I can't understand it. I need to start over and just do a little bit and try to build back to where I was. Thank you for re-posting your supplements. I have tried most of them, but I will add the others. I have noticed that any stress at all sends me back to square one, so possibly there is a large mental component to this illness. Has anyone else noticed this?
