There is no way to tell what the survival rate is for any specific illness, as there are many forms of each one, as well as the general health of each patient. And there are treatments being developed or improved every year to treat previously incurable conditions. One of our member mentors, @merpreb, is a 27 year survivor of lung cancer.

You have not mentioned when you were diagnosed and what your current symptoms are. Do you have Chronic Active Epstein-Barr Virus (CAEPV) or intermittent recurring EBV? Are you under the care of a doctor for this?

I don’t know that.

I encourage you to research ozone therapy.
I just recently started with a functional medicine doctor after exhausting efforts with my MD.
I am only on my second treatment but I am very hopeful that this will cure not only EBV in my system but also my my hyper parathyroidism that I have been diagnosed with.
It is not FDA approved, but many functional medicine practices, offer it here in the US and is highly offered in the Europe.
One of my girlfriends has Lyme disease and has been getting ozone therapy as well as chelation therapy. Apparently it’s a two year process to rid the body of Lyme disease but her last bloodwork showed and the EBVirus is gone from her system. She’s been at both therapies for eight months now and her last bloodwork showed EBV antibodies were completely gone.
I am only on my second treatment, but extremely hopeful that this will cure my auto immune disease and EBV

I hope this helps.
Our journeys are frustrated by a medical system that is in the pockets of the pharmaceutical companies. In my opinion the whole system wants to keep us sick so that we are dependent on their medication’s until we die.

Best of luck and good health
