CMV (cytomegalo virus), is a virus which belongs to the herpes virus family. It is found in all socioeconomic classes. This family of viruses include the herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 varicella-zoster virus (the virus which causes chicken pox)and the Epstein-Barr virus (which causes mononucleosis). All of these viruses can remain in the body for a long period of time without becoming infectious, and causing illness. The CMV virus is transmitted via bodily fluids (urine, saliva, blood, tears, semen, and rarely via breast milk). This virus is transmitted from individuals who are already infected with the virus. It may also be transmitted in utero, via transplanted organs and sometimes through blood transfusions. There may be no symptoms or signs exhibiting that an individual has been exposed.

Why should pregnant women be concerned?

Since most women have no symptoms when they are infected with CMV there is great concern that many pregnant women may not know that they have this disease. This puts their developing baby at a risk for developing congenital CMV disease. If developing babies are infected by their mothers at birth they may be born with an enlarged liver and spleen, have jaundice and may even die. However, treatment is available to help these infants survive. But still, they may have complications within their first years of life such as deafness, blindness, and mild retardation. Infected infants who are born without symptoms at birth may also have mild to moderate degrees of hearing and vision problems. If an infant is infected during delivery from vaginal secretions or later in infancy via breast milk this may result in mild or no illness at all in the infant.

I got clinically diagnosed with herpes (type 2) about 3 years ago, when I was still attending college and had a dumb one-night stand. I realize a lot of people say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a mistake that one time and all of a sudden I felt like I was going to have to live with the implications for the rest of my life. The worst part was feeling I could never date other men again. In the end, who wants to go out with a girl who has sores around her private parts? But since a friend shared this video https://tr.im/O6lYf everything changed.

Not only was I able to clear away all traces of the herpes virus from my body in less than 21 days, but I was also able to start dating again. I even met the guy of my dreams and I'm so blessed to write that just last week, in front of everybody in a busy restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!! This system gave me back the chance to be happy and experience true love again. Now I hope that I can help others by sharing this story.
