Treatment for chronic Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)

Posted by cummings3 @cummings3, Jan 23, 2017

My son has been suffering with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) for over a year. I have taken him to an immunologist and infectious disease doctor with no answers. He is always tired and never feels well. He has relapsed with Mono twice in the last 10 months.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Infectious Diseases Support Group.

I just looked up S.O.T. therapy, it looks interesting and will call Florida Integrative Medical Center in Sarasota and ask about it. Have you heard of Trudose PRP IV therapy?

I haven't. I'm looking to try vitamin c Iv therapy next week. It's shown some effectiveness. I'm hopeful it will help

I've read good things about IV vitamin c therapy also. Have you tried S.O.T, I've been researching it and it looks really promising? Message boards are a great source of info, thanks for posting S.O.T.

I haven't tried s.o.t simply cuz it's unaffordable for me. If I wake up rich tomorrow I'll pursue it. But I really hope it works and it helps a lot of people. People don't seem to realize that ebv/mono is a real life changer. I've been a strong guy my hole life. My immune system beat h1n1 and covid twice. But mono just seems to be the one my system can't control as well. I really hope it can soon though. I'm only 29. I got a lot of life still to live and I wanna live it healthy if I can

Hello @cummings3,

I'm sorry to hear about your son's diagnosis, but I'm so glad you chose to come to the Connect community to seek support and get some answers.

For now, I'd like to introduce you to @jenchaney727, @suesiegel, @arriba, @aman_23_23, @copiela, @jatl, @cheryldotson, who have all discussed Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), and I sincerely hope they will return with some more insight.

Here is some more information from Mayo Clinic: http://mayocl.in/2iYRh3v

@cummings3, chronic fatigue is one of the symptoms of this condition; could you tell us a little more about your son? How old is he? What other symptoms does he have?

Hello,
My son is 21 he has been battling EBV for two years. I have taking him to all types of doctors including holistic. He is on many supplements. He even eats very clean and believes it helped a lot. He has chronic fatigue every day. Initially it started with heart palpitations so I took him to a cardiologist. From there we learned he had EBV.

I have found that this site gives a lot of information on how to supplement for combating the effects of EBV. You might want to give this a try if you are not already getting the help you need, or the results you would like.
