Hi Yaka,
My husband had been on an anti-viral med after chemo treatment but still got a life threatening infection. After 2 weeks of 24/7 IV's of antibiotics in the hospital and twice a day IV's for 2 weeks at home they got rid of the infection. When we asked for refills for the same anti-viral med our oncologist told us she would never put a patient back on the same anti-viral med after it allowed an infection. She changed to a different one and the infection never came back.
I wish you the best.
God Bless,
Sally
