I guess my kind of living is finally getting to me. I sleep for like, 4 hours, 5 at the best and I know that my immune system is gone! So, no wonder a simple cold lasted for almost two weeks! Now I have to deal with eye infection. Is ganciclovir effective for CMV retinitis? Did anyone use it before?

Unfortunately, I had to and I have to admit it was the same reason. And even though it helped, I think that because I have changed my way of living, the problems was gone completely. Anyway, this drug is used to stop the reproduction of CMV virus but it is not a mild drug, there are some side effects to look out for (low WBC, anemia, low sperm production…). So you see, changing life habits is really something you must do, immediately!!!
