Jinx, I have also heard that EBV is an oppurtunistic infection and that it doesn't hurt you unless you are already compromised. While that may be true it can cause a lot of problems and should absolutely be dealt with. I can tell you from personal experience that EBV can make you feel really bad and getting rid of it can make you feel better.

Here are some links to the prodct I used:

I can't reccommend these internet stores because I've never used them but this is the product I used.

Another thing that helped get rid of the EBV was hydrogrn peroxide. I bought food grade hydrogen peroxide put 10 drops in a glass of water and drank it. That really got rid of the EBV and made me feel a lot better. If you can't get a hold of the homeopathic I mentioned above you should try the peroxide.

I will certainly ask my ND for you. Antibiotics don't cross the BBB but they are usless at killing viruses anyways. As far as I'm concerned there isn't much homeopathic medicine can't do.
