Guest guest Posted August 16, 2000 Report Share Posted August 16, 2000 I'm wondering if our situation is unique; hopefully some might be willing to share their experiences. 1. Our son tests positive for HH6. We've tried both antivirals suggested (Valtrex and famvir) and our son definitely responded to both. He ultimately became nothing short of a violent, angry child. I went through 4 weeks of " die off " with one of the drugs, and two weeks on another. He only became worse with time. He became so bad that he was threatened with removal from school. We now have to have a full time personal aid with him because of his behavior on these drugs (which he is off, but I guess the school is still concerned). Has anyone else had a HH6 positive kid who could not take antivirals? If so, what did you do? 2. Our son also tested very positive for yeast. After 4 months straight on nizoral, I can a CDSA through Great Smokies with him still taking the Nizoral; it still came back positive! In addition, he had been getting 1 culturelle a day; he cam back with NO acidophillus at all. We're scheduled to speak with Dr. Goldberg in another couple of weeks, but I guess I just need to hear from someone on whether this is typical or atypical. It is clear he can not handle the antivirals; since the nizoral doesn't seem to be helping, I'm wondering why I should keep him on something which is so hard on the liver. Are we just a " non-responder " to the protocol? Thanks for any input. ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
