Antivirals as ME/CFS or Long Covid treatments (e.g. valacyclovir, valgancyclovir, amantadine)

[Rick Sanchez]

That sounds truely fascinating and frustrating at the same time.

It`s bizarre. Even the MECFS clinic was like, we have never heard anything like it, and they must have had thousands of patients at this point.

The reason why they wanted to try it was because I described my MECFS fluctuating so wildly throughout all my time with MECFS. Just random fluctuations out of nowhere with flu like feeling, which was always accompanied by lots of phlegm when I was mild. So the guy at the clinic had some kind of herpes re-activation theory from birth (which I thought sounded very unserious). Definitely sounded like he wasn't even expecting any massive positive effect at all when he proscribed the drug.

Hope I can live long enough to get an answer!!
