Some people believe that too much l-arginine will stimulate latent viruses.

I'd cut back on that and see if there is any change at all.

Here is a food chart for foods high in arginine, you might want to avoid for a while...see if anything there you crave and eat too much of, etc.

I think the Lysine is a potential thing to try. It is pretty benign and shouldn't have any negative effects of any kind.


So far I have not found much on long term use of Avapro.

Were you tested for Lyme disease? Neuro effects from that can be very puzzling.
Hi mrs. D
Read about the l-arginine somewhere. Will stop it as havnt seen any results from anything so far and it has been a while. Am ordering from Iherb and will order the lysine and give it a try. Forgot but also take omega 3's. Never been tested for Lyme. Will ask next time I go. Dont think we are in any kind of lyme area, dont ever recall any ticks, and read it is hard to really get an
accurate reading. Guess we'll just have to see what happens. So far ONLY burning...no numbness, weakness, autonomic problems so guess I am blessed.
