This sounds like a BIG drug combo. (big as in heavy duty and potentially pretty tough on the body) From what I read, it sounded like they had resolution in three months...?
Does anyone else have any more info on long term results.
Anyone have any insight on this for the stubborn cases?

Does anyone know if there are there herbs that Buhner or others have used for tuberculosis or persisters

I know Dr. Horowitz was doing a trial using Dapsone. But, I'm not familiar with the PZA being used as well (for TB, yes, but don't know if it's been added to lyme protocols)

Not sure about Buhner...and herbs for TB

I heard through receptionist at old LLMD's office that they were starting to use PZA...She didn't know much about it just that it was new in the arsenal.....

Was wondering if anyone here had new info,,?

Yes... Horowitz dapsone for " novel persisters". Did dapsone for 2 months this past summer. I believe it was my folate that tanked, llmd pulled me off. Did it help? I have no clue, and I spent summer under am umbrella
