HI, I just added AL complex to the mix of my treatment plan, and I am currently up to taking 5 drops a day.

Ive read that some people can't even get out of bed after just using 1 drop.....

The fact that it has had no effect on me has me wondering - is this a good or bad sign???

I'm not sure of too many people on here using it. I think one person got back to 90% and another got somewhat better and then stopped and started herxing again after starting it back up.

Are you feeling any improvement after using? Maybe its too soon to tell. I would do a few weeks and then decide.

If you aren't herxing then one ideas is that its definitely something you could use as maintenance after you stop treating completely with ABX.

I don't think it's good or bad I just think that 5 drops may not be enough.

For example, I just started Artemisia Annua for Babs. Someone on here posted to start off slow because she herxed bad after 1 drop.

I'm up to 10 drops with no herxing at all.

It all depends on the person.

Same thing with Samento/Banderol. Some people herx at 1 drop each. I've never herxed on them and take full dropper fulls.

I started taking it about a month ago. My LLMD wanted to see how I did on it, before he started antibiotics, which I will start this coming Monday.

I started VERY SLOW, only adding a drop each day, starting at 1 drop. I'm at 8 drops a day now. I herxed at about 4 drops. Flu like, pain in legs, extreme fatigue.

Overall, I do feel a difference. Definitely not substantial enough to do just the A-L, but my brain fog
seems a little better, my "lead leg" is not as bad.

My LLMD wants me to continue with it, along with my new protocol of Zithromax (500 mg BID) and pulse with Flagyl.
