Re: Insurance won't cover Valtrex, natural antivirals?

February 3, 2011

LDN is next on our list of things to try. But since we just started with AC

chelation we want to give it a fair trial before we add to many new things at

once. I want to make sure I know what is working or not. His DAN has very good

experiences with LDN and also thinks we should try it once we establish if he is

a responder to chelation.

I love the idea of a cream as opposed to wiping of the pills and crushing them

then hounding my son for a half an hour to drink his juice

our new insurance began refusing to cover Valtrex. At $5 a pill 3x a day we

cannot afford to pay out of pocket for it since we have been paying out of

pocket for so many other interventions. So we decided to see how he does off of

it. So far a little more stimmy but no regressions yet.

people have had success with. We are looking into Virastop, OLE or Lysine. My

son was the kind of kid who was sick all the time last year and since starting

Valtrex his immune system has really gotten much stronger and now he rarely gets

sick and fights off viruses much faster. Which natural antivirals can help keep

his immune system strong? We are already on Vitamin C, Zinc and Colostrum. Also,

can I go off rx antifungals and switch to natural antifungals as well?
