One of the most common infection connections with Hashimoto’s disease is the Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV). EBV is actually a herpes virus that most people contract when they are young causing mononucleosis aka “The Kissing Disease” which results in swollen lymph nodes and fatigue. Normally, your body fights it off and your immune system controls it for life just like chicken pox for example. However, people with Hashimoto’s disease have been shown to have a genetic deficiency in the immune cells (CD8+) that control this virus. The virus then reactivates inside the thyroid gland inducing autoimmunity via molecular mimicry. As long as the EBV is active, the autoimmunity will persist. I find a significant number of patients with Hashimoto’s disease have reactivated EBV which is identified through a simple blood test. I use the activity of the EBV as a guide to balancing the immune system and reducing the attack on the thyroid gland." from: http://hypothyroidmom.com/hashimotos-disease-the-infection-connection/ http://www.thyroidpharmacist.com/blog/infections-and-hashimotos If hashimoto is indeed an inefection based malady, consider: http://www.secondnaturecare.com/blog/an-unexpected-bonus-ozone-therapy-second-nature-care "One of the most common causes for decreased resting oxygen utilization is low thyroid function. When you treat low oxygen utilization with I.V. ozone therapy you improve thyroid function. Everyone with a thyroid condition should be getting I.V. ozone therapy. When your thyroid is working well you feel happier. After one I.V. ozone with ozone inhalation treatment for a raging Epstein-Barr infection last Saturday the patient called me on Sunday to report that she is 98% better. I told her that she needed to continue treatment and we'll recheck her chronic active infection titers after 10 treatments. I don't just want to roll her disease back; I want to erradicate it." doug
