So after the symptoms came back today I remembered what cured twice said. Take 1 minocycline and 1 tinidazole. So I did just that, I only took 1 of each. And it worked! I had a mini herx and been very close to symptom free ever since.

I am considering taking a leap of faith and doing the cured twice a protocol called "cured of Lyme in 60 days". He took just 1 minocycline and 1 tinidazole every other day. But he only took one. And he drank celestial seasonings red zinger tea with wild cherry bark extract which I am doing right now.

Should I take the leap of faith? Both doctors said it probably wouldn't work. One said that wouldn't work in 99% of people and the other said he doesn't think much esspecially the comment of just 1 pill.

But I don't know I tried the one pill today and it worked. I think Lyme truly plays by different rules.

LP, did you take them together or separate? I am considering trying it myself, but the tinidazole scarces the **** out of me! Like you, I.ve been doing the wild cherry bark and tea, also some pinella too. Are you gonna do it for 45 days or the one pill thing? thnx

Yes I tried the 1 pill of each today and it worked. Before I did non stop 1 gram of tinidazole each day and it was just too much made me feel toxic. I feel better off the tinidazole but my symptoms came back just 24 hours later! Frustrating, but the good news is I took the 1 mino 1 tind dose and it worked! Had a mini brain herx and symptoms have been gone since!

LP, will you continue with the mino and tind or wait to feel symptoms again?
Posted 6/22/2014 3:58 AM (GMT 0)
The mino and tind are excellent I will continue with them. They work hand in hand with each other.

The thing is Lyme goes into hiding and only comes out when it senses no threats. So apparently that is the rationale behind waiting. And when it comes out of hiding you get symptoms again. Then it reproduces again and you hit it with the abx.

I don't know if it works or not... It's like taking a leap of faith like anything else with this disease. But my first dose I took worked for it though. I took just 1 mino, 1 tind, and I also took 1 Plaquenil and 1 septra DS, but the septra DS is for bartonella.

It worked the first time I tried though, for 1 day.

So you will wait to feel symptoms again before dosing?
Posted 6/22/2014 4:09 AM (GMT 0)
Yes I think I will feel symptoms again. Then dose which will suppress the symptoms. I believe it will be less and less over time and if it is, then you take them every second day. Symptoms or no symptoms have to take them every second day.

Do you have the mino, tind, red zinger tea, wild cherry bark, and pinella?
Posted 6/22/2014 4:10 AM (GMT 0)
Also the red zinger tea, and wild cherry bark you have to take every single day. I am enjoying it right now and am mostly symptom free.
Posted 6/22/2014 4:12 AM (GMT 0)
Interesting, at least its way less tind than you've done in the past! Are you getting past the "toxic" feeling? I thought you were going to lay off that for a while?
Posted 6/22/2014 4:17 AM (GMT 0)
Yes I'm already off that toxic feeling! I feel much better. 1 gram each day is too much I think. It gives a certain toxic feeling in the body, and I can feel it kind of damage the nerves a bit. I read it's reversible damage though. I hope that's right!

So shae, do you have all the abx for doing this?
Posted 6/22/2014 4:19 AM (GMT 0)
Yes, I have all the stuff. But just doing the wild cherry bark, red zinger and pinella right now. Also, a few drops of iodine too. Just waiting to take that "leap of faith"! If you don't mind, you can be the guniea pig first! :) Please keep us posted!
Posted 6/22/2014 4:22 AM (GMT 0)
BTW, how much wild cherry, zinger, and pinella are you doing a day? thnx
Posted 6/22/2014 4:24 AM (GMT 0)
Lol me first? Well I have been taking tinidazole for months now. And I'm still scared of it!!! But I'm more scared of the Lyme.

so you have it but haven't taken it yet?

What about the minocycline? Have you tried that?
Posted 6/22/2014 4:25 AM (GMT 0)
Wild cherry bark drops... I am taking 1 full dropper mixed with the celestial seasonings red zinger tea. Having a cup right now as I type this actually.

Pinella I usually have 2 droppers before bed.

How about you? How are your symptoms by the way?
Posted 6/22/2014 4:34 AM (GMT 0)
I haven't taken the plunge yet w/ the abx. I have all the symptoms, including the neck pain which was getting quite bad recently. Its actually feeling much better now. Sounds strange, but I think the iodine may have helped. I was doing that first then added the drops afew weeks ago.
Posted 6/22/2014 4:38 AM (GMT 0)
I.m enjoying a red zinger right now myself, w/ 10 drops of pinella! I.ve been doing the wild cherry at least 2 times a day(on empty stomach), and then the pinella at least once or twice and the tea at least once. Think I need a red zinger IV!
Posted 6/22/2014 4:53 AM (GMT 0)
lol red zinger IV! Careful though, too much I believe is toxic though. It releases a cyanide kind of molecule. Most of our cells can detox it into a harmless thiocyanate. According to our fellow cured twice.

Wow. So you got the abx but not started them yet. Did you get them through an LLMD?

What kinds of symptoms do you have?

I think minocycline is relatively safe. I'm not scared of that one.
Posted 6/22/2014 5:09 AM (GMT 0)
I have the usual, joint pain, neck pain, "brain fog". I do not have an llmd at the moment, but am looking into one right now. Unfortunately, I will have to travel for a "good one". I'm not worried bout the mino, its the tini that concerns me. And would like to be under the supervision of an llmd for that one. I have done doxy, prescribed by a GP, had the usual sun sensitivity, metallic taste in mouth, etc. But I know I need more than that.

Ya... But you know for tinidazole... They are going to prescribe it as 1 gram a day.

I hate to say but even under the supervision of an LLMD it becomes a problem over time.

How did you get the tind?

I think I'm not going back on full 1 gram dosage of tinidazole. I have like 80 pills left though so I think that should be enough for the 1 pill every second day.

I just don't know is that dosage high enough to work? 100 mg of mino and 250 mg of tind. I guess take on an empty stomach and exercise after makes it absorbed 13 times more effectively. I just don't know it seems to be working though.

Maybe I need to implement the exercise too.
