Hi Lax,

We've struggled for years with that darn NK cell number. DD's numbers were 5 for the longest time. I seem to remember the NK count going up to 8 or 9 and felt, hey it's progress...

Until I had my own NK count checked and it was in the thousands, yep, THE THOUSANDS. Apparently I was at the beginning of a UTI and all cells were put on high alert. You'd think with Lyme and all the coinfections that all cells would be on high alert too, but I guess it doesn't work that way.

Haven't had any of our NK cell counts checked recently. Hoping that LDN and Immunotix will help boost the counts. I forget...are you on those or anything like them?

And curious too if you have high EBV titers? DD's titers are STILL very high despite prescription and natural anti-virals. I wonder if this has anything to do with the low NK counts.

Just think, in a few years we might very well have a PhD or MD degree with all this research we've been doing.
