Words of Advice
I honestly thought I would never be the woman I use to be, and the mother I always knew I could be. Thanks to Dr. Pompy sending me to Dr. Lerner I am now my old self and the best mother I could have ever imagined. When my symptoms started I was ALMOST 21. I am now 24 years old.

A lot of doctors do not recognize Epstein Barr and CFS as something so serious and most don’t even know that there is a treatment for them. I am living proof that Epstein Barr and CFS can be cured. I want the world to know that in some people with run down immune systems it will not go away!

I suggest if you have any of these symptoms and they do not go away you have your PCP or any doctor run a simple blood test for Epstein Barr, it can really change your life!
