Can you tell me the brands and doses of the lysine,monolaurin, and astra-itis you use. How often did you take them to get ebv under control? And then what was your maintenance dose. How often are you doing Vit C IVs. And how much B 12 are you taking. How were you diagnosed?

Lysine is very common, and I'm not brand specific as long as I get it from a good soure that I trust (compound pharmacy?) Twice a day forever. It may have been more to start with. Sorry - it's been 15 years since originally put on protocol. 500mgs is what I've always taken, but now that it is available in 1000mgs I may take that.
Astra-Isitis is harder to find. Health Concerns is the only brand I've ever used, and may be the only one available. I THINK it was two capsules three times a day. It's fairly expensive.
Monolaurin is coconut based. Ecological Formulas is the brand I've always
used. 600mgs twice a day.
They work together. It's kind of an all or nothing deal, except maybe for
the lysine which I take even if in remission.
---I'm so many years into this, it doesn't seem to work like it used to if I
have a flare. I'm not a doctor, but my take is that the virus drills down
ever deeper with each flare, and it gets harder to get back into remission.
The protocol for the IVs is B-12 (dose ?) with 50 grams/units (?) of vit C twice
a week for six weeks to force into remission. Expensive! I feel SO much
better when I have the IVs. There is also some success with ozone drip but
I don't tolerate that well. I also cannot do hyperbaric oxygen because of sinus issues, but it is said to help with EBV and is not terribly expensive.
Many naturopathic doctors have them.
My EBV was in remission for many years until I got COVID, and then long haul covid. The NIH sites have quite a bit of information about the connection between Covid and EBV. Nothing readily available, and seemingly unknown to doctors. I find that many good (not all) naturopaths are light years ahead of traditional medicine when it comes to EBV.
I am now just beginning to respond to some of the really off the wall
treatments referred to from the 'HealthRising' web site. NOT recommending
anything mentioned there. Just throwing it out for those who like me are
so into this that we need to reach further. The site is run by well respected
researchers and doctors trying to get to the bottom of this mess. I even went so far as sign up for a trial, and signed my sister up for the control group.
I wish you luck and fortitude in your search for help.
