In conjunction with Dr.Lerner we decided to visit a wholistic doc that combines natural and conventional medicine. He is in Flint, MI and his name is Dr.Conley. His initial evaluation with me was over 3 hours. I have a number of tests to get done in the next month and we will have a phone consultation with him in 5 weeks to go over the results and move forward if I chose to do so. Below are my notes from the meeting.
Note: He gave me the option of staying on valtrex or going off it to see what happens. It is a drug that he commonly prescribes but he wants to see if it will help relieve my nausea. His goal is to build up my immune system and when it is strong, begin to remove the prescription antivirals.
