Cure

[helen totilo]

I do not know if you will accept me as a member because it is not me who is suffering from CFIDS but my son. He has been sick now on and off for over a year and nothing seems to help. He has heard that there is a cure in progress in Belgium which is not on the market yet and very expensive. Do you know of this cure?:hug: :)

The drug you are talking about is most likely Ampligen.

Here is a link with a long explanation of where Ampligen is today:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=15357629&query_hl=1&itool=pubmed_docsum

There are many other links on the web you can find by plugging in that
word into the search: Ampligen

I would think that an infectious disease specialist could answer your question
as to the availability of Ampligen in this country, today. However, it is very
expensive, if it IS available.

this link:

is to the company that manufactures it.

Good luck!
