Anyone Else Had Any Luck With Antivirals?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question ๐Ÿ’ญ

I started using Famciclovir in May and it improved my energy immediately. Anyone else notice anything like this?

I've been loosely following this for awhile.

It's very interesting, as this herpies virus is in virtually the majority of the public.

And it sounds logical, especially since so many millions have FM and/or CFS.

Very cool to hear it helped you so quickly.

How did you and your doctor get ahold of the exact dosages they use? And are you still on these meds?

I just read the article- thank you. The 3rd trial of the drug will be done this year- this is very interesting! I think you have to be part of the study to get this? Wouldn't it be great if it works?? ๐Ÿ’• You mentioned you have more energy but how is it working for pain? Or are you on pain meds still? This sounds hopeful & thank you for sharing ๐ŸŒน

It stems from the idea below. My doctor and I decided to give it a try and it seems to help me quite a bit.

Interesting that a dr would prescribe a drug for fibro that is used for shingles, cold sores and herpes. The most common side effect is fatigue. That is a long time to be on it too and can cause serious liver problems๐Ÿ’•
