My first CD-57 test came back at 13! My LLMD would like me to take Research Nutritionals Multi Transfer Factor. He really belives in it.
I have read past posts and almost no one reports a positive result - several don't knows and numerous people it made sick.
Would welcome thoughts and experiences. I need to decide if I want to take it or just continue with my abx treatment.
Thanks, Kathy

Hi!
I was also recommended Transfer Factor, same brand as you. I've been taking it now for about a month. I like it myself. Hasn't made me sick or anything. I think I did herx from it initially but only for a day or so and since then I haven't noticed anything bad from it.
I don't know if it's helping or not though. I haven't had my CD57 tested for a long time. Last time I had it checked it was 9 (that was nearly 5 months ago and was not on TF at that time). My white blood cell count is also very low and I've been wondering if TF will help with that. I had some blood tests recently and will be interested to see the results.
Not sure if it will actually show anything.
I can say that my hubby just recently had a cold and still has the cough and all that, but somehow I got lucky enough not to catch it. Thank goodness. Maybe the TF helped with that or the gobs of vitamin C and other supps I take.
