Dear Lloyd,
Thanks for your response and I will add the items you listed
to the program which I'm now taking...to my upcoming order.
Would you be so kind as to answer just a few more questions
and clarifications regarding recent your email.
I'm asking you these questions because I can't get a straight
answer from the doctor who only wants to prescribe interferon...
but says that since my viral load is so low (24,000) that
I can wait until after my daughter's wedding in December,
2004, since I'll probably get pretty sick from the treatment
but that there's no problem with waiting until next year
to begin treatment.
The Doctor also told me that some
patients with a low viral load (5% or so) actually rid themselves
of the HVC on their own??? Have you ever
heard that one?
have you found that your clients with low viral loads are
usually are pretty symptom free and do most remain at a
low level or do they fluctuate?
I probably have had this for nearly 30 years from a blood
transfusion after my
daughter was born in 1974.
by adding the Natcell
thymus and the absorbic
C and the Cats
Claw to the existing program which I am taking -- do
you think it's possible to bring the load down even further
or better yet -- have some of your
clients actually rid themselves of HCV with your program
altogether, the way that you've done???
you are free of the Hep C virus, as indicated in your books,
but do you still have to take the
complete program in order to keep clear of the Hep C virus
or can you stop taking the program at some point in time?
and, finally, you mentioned in your email that many people
are never the same after taking the interferon and that
viral load sky rockets even if it was 0 for a while -- I
guess what you're saying is that the interferon really doesn't
have any long-term lasting effect for most people but that
the herbs and vitamins in your program will give your body
the support it needs from natural sources to hold this virus
at bay let your body heal itself, the way nature intended,
right?
Again, thanks so much, in a world of confusion and contradictions,
it's always great to know that you can get some honest answers
from Lloyd.
Best regards,
P B
Suppose we all want to get rid of it completely the way
that you have been successful in doing.
My viral load is 24,000 -- if I can keep it at that level
or possibly lower with the aid of your programs -- do you
think I can keep it down and stay clear of any the usual
symptoms?
Thanks again and again and again for all your information
and support.
P B.
Hi Pat:
15
to 20 % of people with hep c have a spontaneous remission.
The spontaneous remission is not associated
with a person who has a low viral load. If you have
had hep c for 30 years, I would definitely not use interferon
as what I have seen is that symptoms come on and people
who were not sick are then sick, sicker that you want to
know.
Viral
load is not to be associated with symptoms, AST, ALT or
progression of disease. I have known
people who died from hep c with a viral load of 200.000
and I have people with no symptoms and a perfect ast and
alt with a viral load of 115.000.000, and everything in-between.
I do have some clients that have low viral load, no symptoms
and I think they will live out there lives with no problems
from hep c. It is the people who were talked into interferon
that are in a bad way. Some people's viral load stay
static, some fluctuate. It
is my experience with many thousands of people that if there
viral load goes up, it is because something caused it to
go up. It is rare that viral load goes up for
no reason as most doctors like to tell people.
I believe that the viral load can be brought to non-detected.
Because yours is low, I have found that this is not
a indication of it being easier than if it were high. Many
of my clients have become non-detected. It
is impossible to tell how many because so many never tell
me. Often I will be answering the phones and talk to people
who tell me that they are on a maintenance program because
the cleared months back and I am always surprised to hear
this because I think it would be something people would
tell me. Thinking about it, how often do people call there
doctor and tell them they are relieved of the problem they
went to see them about?
I
did not do much for 3 years after UCLA declared that I had
no sign of the virus. During that time I
was very broke and doing a lot of research writing my first
book. When I found that there is a definite link between
primary liver cancer and hepatitis c I began taking precautionary
measures. I think people should use good common sense
in diet and supplement with certain items that pertain to
there own situation. I take milk
thistle 400 mg 3 x day, lipoic
acid 300 mg 3 x day and selenium
400 mcg per day. I also drink about 2 quarts of milk
thistle seed tea a day. I do make the other
teas and drink a different one about every
week. Occasionally I will have some Natcell. If I could
afford it I would take it daily.
It
is a fact that most people who clear the virus on interferon
will relapse. Most
of these people are not followed by drug companies. They
do not follow them because it makes there statistics look
better.
Schering's
own study on my website says that the viral
load goes up three times higher than it was at base line
after relapse. I see it every day. It is heart break
for people who are lead to believe that giving up a year
of there life is going to be a victory. There are very few
that share that experience after interferon. Interferon
intron A, which is the active ingredient in Peg Intron is
a chemical synthetic of a natural substance created by the
immune system to fight disease. When a human is injected
with large amounts of this the immune system shuts down,
thinking it is producing too much interferon. This
leaves many gaps in the bodies defense system putting the
immune system to sleep. When one is determined to
be non-detected and then stops the interferon, the immune
system is sleeping and needs time to rebuild itself, a major
task in itself, the virus comes raging back and goes to
new heights. I have had numerous people who have done intron
A and in there last 3 months gone on my full program. This
has worked to stop the virus from coming back. It does not
work very successfully with peg intron. Peg intron has lowered
the success rate of my program as it takes far more time
to rebuild peoples bodies and organs after this unnecessary
serious abuse.
I think that if you have no symptoms now that as long as
you live well you will be great!
In good health
Lloyd
