Guest guest Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 My son is a patient of Dr. G . He weighs 48 lbs. and takes Zovirax (5 times a day)... 400mg in the morning, 300mg three times in the middle of the day, 400mg at night. (This is another antiviral Dr. G. uses). (We split the pills).

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 1:10 is the normal range. This days she looks healthy, no cold sores, no stye, no FLU. This pair of months she is been fine, happy, enjoying the life. I guess it must be related to her improve in the virus. In my country we are in summer, so it also helps. For her HHV6 was in 320, 160,and 740 along the years. When she was in 740 we got a very bad moment for a few days, she got migraine, she cannot walk up the stairs, nor open the door. Then slowly thing got better. I realized that there were some foods that were not helping, as lemon, artichocke, lentils, she is very reactive, and for me was very difficult to find all the problematic foods; i guess finally the diet is fine; this is very important and helps a lot. Her improvements were not drastic, only once when we used for the first time Famvir, 15 days after she began talking, not as a regular girl, but there appeared language. It was in the begining, we got up and down, but in average always progress. Dr. G won´t wait for the virus to be down, he gives some other meds as the SSRI´s, tenex... and this helps in the meantime. I cannot say that with this virus in 10 she is a normal girl, but she is on her way. Improving slowly. So, the best thing that you are doing is to visit the doctor. > > > I want to share, my girl finally got HHV6 1:10. > > She was dealing with this for all her life. > > Once i thought she would always live with this. > > So, once again Dr. G was right. it is a matter of time and patience and follow all the recomendations as strictly as possible. > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Thank you so much for describing your daughter's improvements. It is just amazing that at a level of 740 she couldn't walk up the stairs. Poor baby. So glad you were able to get her help. What country do you live in? Thank you!
