http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25511729 Drugs like acyclovir kill viruses only when they are in the active phase. The viruses lay dormant and activate over and over again. Research at Duke University may lead to a treatment to cause all the viruses to activate all at once, and kill them once and for all. A drug called antagomir would cause a cold sore to erupt, but then all copies of the virus could be eradicated once and for all. Getting rid of something like shingles would likely be trickier.

Hello everyone. hope everyones making progress on there treatment.  Its been a long journey for me and It seems to be getting better since I started the Wheldon protocol. I have to say It is very tiring and exuasting. Its seems like all I do is take supplementsi and antibioticsi all the time in between trying to live a normal life. I miss my old self that woke up every morning without worrying about how im going to feel that day thats for sure. Im sure after I am through with the protocol I can start to live a pretty good healthy life. Sometimes I cant believe this happened to me. Sometimes it feels as though im living a dream and its not real but I am very thankful to God that I found you guys. Everyone here has been my backbone of support.

If it possible to have cpni for a long time and not know it. maybe have antigeni or something like that. and is it possible to not know you have it for a long time and still spread it to others.

Sorry- I've deleted the text here. Not only did it contain advertising left from your cut and paste, but I was concerned that naive readers would see the treatment described by Dr. Mirkin as one recommended here.  It would be more appropriate to publish the link so people can go see for themselves, but it wouldn't be confused with the treatment recommended on this site. If you add the link in a comment, I can edit it into the original post.

Some shocking news. My first cousin is in the hospital and seems to be suffering from a cpni or lyme infection. She has been sick for the last couple of months (fatigue, swelling joints and back, flu like symptoms etc.) and now its so bad she is on a IV in the hospital. I just got off the phone with her mom (my aunt). and she said they put her on doxyi, Methotrexate, and some other drugs I forgot to write down.  I told her she needs to tell her doctor the reason that the doxy isnt working is becuase she need to stack it on the zithromax. I explained the protocol and gave her this website. I also said she needs to get tested for cpn, myco, and lyme.

Hello, I hope everyone is having success with there protocolsi. I just had a couple of questions if anyone could answer. Is there a gene to test for the suseptability of a person to get cpni?  I have read stories of people having cpn for 3-6 months and they got better. Some doctors call it Rieters syndrome. Anyone else have a doctor tell them they had Rieters? Also I know the Docs say 3-5 years is how long you should stay on the protocol? Should there be no symptoms left in order to go of the protocol COMPLETELY! and what if you feel fine after 1 year of the protocol?

I have been monitored for microscopic blood in my urine since early 2000. The doctor I was treating with back home always seemed to believe it was due to celiac/gluten intolerance as we could never find anything conclusive.... hmmm.. cpni???

I am now out of state with a urologist who has been treating me for 4 years.  Every time I have had an appointment there has been blood in my urine.  

 I just came from a visit with her (my urologist).... all has been tested (cystoscopy, kidney x-rays, urine cytology). Today, I pushed her for a "what are we going to do or conclude" about this?  The only confirmation that we have is that:

1) there are no cancerous or squamous cells; (which is great)  and,

Since my sickness due to cpn 8 months ago ive been having a lot of groin pain. The urologist cannot find anything. I did some research and they say this is called non bacterial prostitis. Its kind of ironic becuase I did some further reading and it said some doctors think its caused by the chlamydia bacteria. Has anyone else had a lot of groin pain with cpn.

A few interesting Articles :

Right now I am in excruciating pain and have been for nearly three weeks. I was diagnosed with Lyme in 2002 after being incredibly ill since 1999. I first had swollen lymphs, followed by pnuemonia that would not respond to abxi of any kind, eventually dropping out of school and beginning the travels through so many doctors and specialists I cannot begin again to even repeat.

 

At this time I have heart problems and brain problems that showed up on cardiology and mri.cats.

 

Addendum to my blog.  It's day 21 post pulse. I am depressed and sick and tired of being sick and tired.  I guess it's finally hit.  I only took 1- 250 mg of Tindamax for 2 days.  Nothing really happened until now.  I was experiencing pelvic/gut pain but kept writing it off to the pulse.  so I then went the route of gyn and  urologist which has led me to:

1) I have a bladder infection  -- was prescribed Nitrofurantoin 100 mg BID. 

2) Per gyn - I  have BV and gyn wants me to use Clindesse -- I have not administered it yet as I am concerned I'll be on antibiotic overload and could possibly cause another pulse or yeasst.  I have no idea how it would interact with CPNi.

I’m not much of a blogger. My generation grew up with email and have been slow to adopt the new forms of electronic communication. But I am so grateful to this community, its founders and ‘old-timers’, and all of you that daily support and inform members of this site, that I think it’s about time I start to tell my own story. There is something very important about telling our stories to each other, knowing there are listeners who have been through their own ordeals and understand.

 

I have psoriasis and have been on many immuno suppressive meds to treat this. I have no doubt psoriasis will heal with the CAPi. Dr Stratton commented to me on that as well.

At the moment, I'm considering asking my dermatologist to rx me the CAP abxi but I feel I would need to give him some valid science so he would feel this be in his realm of treating me.

Does anyone know where I can find any research articles or literature in regards to CPni involvement in psoriasis? TIA

 

Sxs – fatigue 4, allergy/cold sxs 8, diarrhea 7, nausea 4, fluish 4, itchy eyes 7

I’m not sure if this is an iodine or NACi reaction or true allergy or cold. It came on rather suddenly yesterday afternoon after I spray painted some patio furniture so I thought at first it was more of a reaction of detox but it seemed to get worse as the day wore on yesterday rather than better.
