As I am taking 12 weeks of abx I am wondering what to expect, how will I know im getting better versus just another period of improvement before another flare? Can you des ribe your path yo improvement, what made you realize you were better? What got better first? Were there set backs along the way or continuous improvement? I think im seeing slight improvement aftrr 3 weeks abx but afraid to be confident the changes are due to abx and not just a normal improvement in symps.

Roxie my heart goes out to you! I was on antibiotics for 5 months and saw slight improvements very slowly. I feel like the abx kept me from sliding back but what really helped what hydrogen peroxide, UVBI, and vitamin C IVs. After each IV I first herxed terribly and then I felt slight improvement. Then I had a horrendous reaction to Azithromycin that pushed me into long term medical leave. I could not do abx anymore so I started silver which really helped me. At that time I decided I was going to Sponaugle and wanted to get ahead so I read up on some blogs that they were doing colonics 2x week. I swear that's what put me back on my feet. I was literally crawling around my house before I started those. I have been doing them 2x week for 3.5 months and have seen continuous improvement. I also did 10 IVs of EDTA and 5 weeks at Sponaugle.

I am not well but I am much better. I am still to write more on my blog but my life has been so crazy I have not been able to do it. I know that it will be ups and downs until all the mold, heavy metals, toxins, etc. are out of my body and until my immune system has taken over and holds all the critters inside at bay. As long as I have more bugs to kill there will be toxins that will produce symptoms. Good luck on your journey! I highly recommend you get tested for mold, HLA, and MTHFR. God bless!

Hello Roxie!, Hang in there!! Ive been on abx for about 15 months now. If I look back to this time last year I'm about 70% better!! Its not something I would notice as I went along but when I look back, its amazing!! I have always treated myself with low doses of abx as well as other supplements. I realized slow and steady works best for me! Go easy on yourself as you heal, it takes time, and for everybody its different but you will heal!! smilewinkgrin

It's most common to experience some flares, but overall improvement as you heal. It would not be possible to know if your improvements that you are seeing now will 'hold' until you go further with your treatment and see what happens.

Do you keep a symptom journal? It helps a lot as you can look back and see slight improvements and/or see an overall 'trend' of improvement that you might not otherwise see.
