The Kissing Killer

Passed tenderly from one's lips to the next.  Kissing: a natural, intimate, joy in life is actually sucking the life out many of us. We don't think kissing could kill us or debilitate us or destroy our lives as we know it, but it can and it dose.  We can't imagine the risks of kissing; of robbing us of our lives, our essence, our ability to exist, but it can and boy, it does.
Mono is called the kissing disease.  What a sweet name wrapped in cruelty.  Epstein Barr Virus was discovered in 1964: it's the nasty virus that causes mono.  An astounding 90-95% of the world's population is infected with this virus and it's robbing millions infected from their lives. People who were once strong, productive, and active are taken over by this virus.  It takes and average of 10 doctors and 20 years to be diagnosed appropriately. 20 years is a lifetime for some. More likely than not patients will either be diagnosed some or all of these misdiagnoses that delay treatment and damage lives, decapitate careers and rip apart marriages: depression, anxiety, or one of the most crushing misdiagnosis: you are a lazy, glutunous person who is too sensitive and stresses out too much . 

Here is the message many patients hear: You caused this.  You eat too much, exercise too little and you don't deflect stress enough.  You work too much, you think too much, you are causing your so-called problems that aren't evident on labs therefore, they don't exist, so my must be making it up or you are depressed, yes, you must be depressed: here is an anti-depressant. After a 6 week follow up: how do you feel, ok, not any change really except now on top of my fatigue  I have sexual side-effects.  Yes, that can happen.  Ok, good.  See you in a year. End of story and too common of a story.

Or another one: let's try phentermine.  What's phentermine?  It's a drug that will help you lose weight and should definitely give you energy.  Ok. Here's what you don't know: it's just like speed, acts similar to amphetamines and can be addictive.  It causes heart damage.  It causes stroke.  It's addictive. 

Yet an even a deeper cut: your doctors, friends, family and even the owner of the store you used to shop thinks you are a malingerer, a fake, a fraud, a liar.
The damage these insults cause goes so very deep, and are so very hurtful, so very insulting and it happens day in and day out to literally millions of sufferers.

These people do not want to fail. They do not want to hurt. They do not want to miss out on joy, on love on passion, on life. They miss it terribly.  They desperately want to get better and will do anything to do just that but are so often misdirected, ignored, misdirected and God forbid, but are even taken advantage of by some very expensive medical procedure that aren't approved for treating EBV.  These people need to be taken seriously and they need alternative medical intervention first and foremost and also appropriate lab work to a. rule out other infections b. check their thyroid thoroughly c. treat thyroid sub-clinically if enough signs are present to warrant.  d. check for auto-immune disease

These patients should be referred out to an acupuncturist and master herbalist  who have EXPERIENCE treating EBV to boost their immunity, reduce stress, aid metabolic syndrome, reduce inflammation and pain, improve sleep, fight infections including: viruses, bacteria and to kill parasites if found.

Acupuncture can bring your IgG numbers down in Epstein Barr, even though those numbers are considered indicative of an old infection.  Acupuncture modulates the immune system enabling you to attack the virus and reduce it's ability to replicate.  Very few forms of medicine have the ability to do this especially with no adverse reaction from the patient.

 Here is a testimonial found on Acupuncture.com
Epstein Barr / Acute Leukopenia
By Lori Mazzoli
"I was suffering from acute Leukopenia and Epstein Barr Virus. My white blood cells were disappearing rapidly week after week and I was too exhausted to live. My doctors were baffled and could not figure out what was causing this or what to do about it. I was finally told to just stay at home in bed until my doctor could figure it out because my immune system was too weak to be around people. After six weeks of treatment with acupuncture and prescribed herbal treatments, my WBC has returned to normal and my viral load is way down. Acupuncture did in six weeks what medical doctors couldn't do in three years of hospitals, drugs and tests. My entire way of thinking about my health and my family's health has changed forever."

Even more impressive is another study that shows 80% effectiveness in treating chronic fatigue, a component of Epstein Barr Virus that is unavoidable by nearly every person who suffers from this virus.  

Acufinder includes Epstein Barr Virus as one of the many immunological problems acupuncture treats well.  

In addition to acupuncture, personally prescribed herbal medicines is critical to killing the epstein barr virus, reducing it's ability to replicate, and potentiates the immune system to fight.  One of the gravest mistakes a patient can make is self medicating, even with herbal medicine.  Often times, reading one herb (extremely ineffective form of herbal medicine) or even a combination of herbal medicine  not only doesn't help a patient enough to show any noticeable difference, but may make the condition worse. 
In addition, you need a skilled, master herbalist, like those found at  Eagle Acupuncture who can formulate complex, intricate and sophisticated combinations of herbal medicine to both attack the virus but even more importantly, strengthen the constitution and immune system of the patient fighting the virus.  If an herbalist, or naturopath or self prescribing patient (very dangerous, never do this) attacks too strongly, the adverse reactions may be counter-productive and weaken the patient, preventing them to either a. be compliant and stay on the herbal medicine long enough to work effectively or b. weaken them so they can't fight the viruses, bacteria and potentially parasites.  Liken it to the chemotherapy effect.  If too strong, or too much, it can kill the patient before killing the cancer.  We don't want to do this and we don't want patients suffering side-effects that keep them from healing.
