Giant Cell Arteritis?
I have been suffering from various health issues the last 4 months. I have Horner's syndrome, which is really noticeable on occasion, which started at the first time as some very bad headaches. I also got Lyme recently as well. I seem to have possibly found the cause of my anisocoria now though. I already went to a few general practice MDs and to a neurologist when I was in the US, and none of them really helped. The neurologist had an MRI done, and said nothing of note was visible, and maybe that I just have neuralgia and congenital horner's syndrome.
I am starting to worry it may be Giant Cell Arteritis, as I have a very sensitive right temple, and it has been since my anisocoria first started to occur (at that point I was having very bad headaches and other symptoms). I have felt a lot of pulsating, heat, and sensitivity in what seems to be the artery in the right temple, and doing DT seemed to worsen it. I am going to get a biopsy & blood test done here in China once I can find a decent hospital here, but in the meantime I am wondering if there are any good supplements for Arteritis? I found Hawthorne berry and fish oil could be helpful online, so I am trying those for now. I am also taking 10g liposomal C per day right now along with colloidal silver and copper for the Lyme and possible vascular health issues.

Based on a successful treatment using antivirals (varicella-zoster virus (VZV) for GCA, would give butylated hydroxytoluene a shot.
BHT
Safe and more effective than acyclovir
