I am sorry you have to dump your treatment and are back to the drawing board trying to come up with something else. I was exactly where you are a year ago because of Levequin. I also felt geared up ready to attack it head on, only to crash shortly after. Levaquin is very hard to tolerate and the side effects can be much more serious than what it is trying to kill. When you take herbs you have to do a LOT of them, not the recommended amounts, and you need to rotate them. I think everything loses it's effectiveness after awhile.
Milk thistle is excellent for your liver. I would continue it but try to find something natural to help with your pain. I hope you feel better soon.

Oh gosh cg!!! smhair
I am soooo sorry!!!
While I was reading this thread, I was thinking you might want to seriously check out a Homeo. route.

As far as the 'fatty liver' - my soon to be son-in-law was just dxed with this & he hasn't done anything that would put him in a high-risk category for it. rolleyes

What tx to follow is such a highly individual choice - this is part of what has confused me all along. How to know what might actually work??

Of course you will remain in my prayers ~

1bitten,

Hey hun. Yes, I'm glad he is on top of things too but it's so upsetting. I felt like I was doing good on Levaquin and I'm actually feeling better after a week. I wish my body would get straight.

Jenn,

Thanks for the info. I didn't know there was a difference. I thought Fluconazole was the generic for Diflucan?

Razzle,

Thank you for the info. I didn't know that about B-12. I will see what my doctor thinks about it.

The only thing I was on before my bloodwork was Diflucan, so I'm thinking it may have caused the elevation. I just started the Milk Thistle four days ago so it's not even enough time to tell if it's made any difference yet. I can tell you this though, that pressure I was having in my liver area seems to go away when I take the Milk Thistle.

My doctor wanted me to stop it but my supplement lady said it cannot hurt me....only help me.

I have not been checked for Ehrlichia/Anaplasma yet but it has been on my mind since I've been reading up on it. I hesitated asking the doctor about it because I thought it caused low RBC and mine are good. I guess it couldn't hurt to get checked.

Nefferdun and Traveler,

Thanks to both of you. I think I will take one step at a time and start with detoxing/cleansing my liver and kidneys first. Then, go from there.

Maybe an herbal protocol?

Hey Jackie,

Thanks so much. It looks like I may have to go back soon to review my bloodwork. I'm not sure yet when or if I'll be going. I'll let you know.

Good luck with your doctors apt.
