Hi Brawndo78,

As your probably aware we dont seem to get feedback on ebv/mono. One board member did post advice, and suggested anti-virals as treatment. Living in the UK I haven't been aware of our doctors prescribing these as treatment. The general consensus among them is let it take it's course.

Having done a bit of research and reading threads, i can't wait a long time to get my life back on track. I have been affected with this mono infection for around 6 months. I am a 52 yr. old female in good health until this came along. I wonderd if there was any natural anti-viral medications? Lo-and-behold i received an email back from a homeopathic doctor. The medication is called sambucol - black elderberry extract. I self-medicated myself on the winter dosage for a week. Along with high strentgh echinacea drops as advised, after one week, i feel a significent improvement in my situation. My lymph glands have not ached for the first time in months. I have been active for two days on the go. Very tired at bedtime, but hey-ho, i can deal with that. I want to drink more water. The upside is i'm not as hungry. I did have a few days were i had extremely bad diahorrea. This (iv'e been told is the virus dying off and leaving my system). I shall carry on taking the extract for a couple of weeks.

Maybe this may help you. Take care.
