My Doctor is actually helping me
I am only making this post because when chronic EBV was put on the table, I came to reddit and no one had answers from their medical professionals either. And I think my doctor is really helping.
I am currently being treated for what we believe is chronic EBV. I had a positive diagnosis as a child, have had a clean bill of health whilst exhausted and fatigued for 8 years. I am 32f and finally asked they test me for mono in May 2026 as a last ditch effort to get answers. I was very infected to say the least 😂
The medical doctors did and as of this week, still do not know what to do so back in May I went to see a naturopath in Hermiston, OR called Dr. Kris Petersen.
First three months he gave me two supplements:
Lauricidin - one scoop 3x a day. This supplement helps thin the lipid layer of the virus so the body can more effectively attack the virus.
N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC) by Designs for Health - one 2x a day. Basically helps slough all the viral die off out, a detoxer.
Over the months I would notice if i miss the Lauricidin, like it actually helps me get through the day, but the NAC didnt feel like it did much.
I just saw him last week again, we kept me on the Lauricidin, took me off the NAC, and he did a bunch of tests and then landed on Reishi Gano 161 by JHS Natural Products. I have been taking two 2x a day.
It is slow going because its mono, but the combination of reishi with the lauricidin has me feeling better than ive felt in years. The medical doctors told me they don't have anything for me and they don't think infectious disease will take me. They literally said, "there is so much we dont know, if youre having results with the naturopath, do that!"
I will of course update as we continue, but I wanted to give you guys some hope because its truly miserable to live with it. I only give the brand names of the supplements because he has high grade ones and Ive gotten sick from Amazon supplements before!
Any questions are welcome!
