Thank you for the imput, tickbite666. Much appreciated!...
Would you hold off on the Igenex test for 2 more weeks?...
Thank you, tickbite666. I have been doing the astragalus as well as did the andrographis and moistened bentonite clay on top of the bite for 24 hrs. Also, doing homeopathic ledum 200c but still......
So after treating for 4 mos from the original bite when I got sick, I found another embedded tick on me Sat. I had stopped the combo abx Weds per LLMD in preparation to take the Igenex this week. I...
You're made of hardier stuff than me! I've already had bad reactions from azithro and rifampin. I don't know how you do it for so long. 3 mos in and my body feels totally toxic. ...
Thanks everyone for the feedback. Interesting about Dr J's protocol. I wish I could find more online about it. I've been on these for 3 months and my body is starting to feel like 'enough already'....
Just an update: the LLMD txted back that I should stop the azithromycin but continue with the others until I see her....
The heart issues started this past week. It got to the point that my chest would hurt for the next day or so after an episode along with a sick, weak feeling for the rest of the day. My next follow...
Oh wow, thank you so much for pointing this out regarding heart issues from azithromycin and macrolides. This is the first I've heard or seen it mentioned anywhere. I had assumed the doxy was the...
That makes complete sense. Do most people wean by reducing the frequency/how many times per day the meds are taken (twice to once, for example) or by reducing dosage?...
Thanks, everyone, for the feedback. Do you actually have to wean off the meds little by little and not stop altogether cold turkey?...
Hi everyone, Thanks for the replies. I haven't been tested as my LLMD said since I was symptomatic from the start, it would be very pricey, and the only thing that would really change is if it was...
Hi everyone, I've been on combined abx for the past three months after finding an engorged tick on me in early Nov. I got on abx the next day after becoming quickly symptomatic. After 3 months on...
Thank you both for the replies. It's a bit better today but still nowhere near where I was before taking it. Hopefully it passes. The thing that worries me is I've read a number of people mentioning...
Hi everyone, I've been on abx (doxy 100 mg 2x daily first two weeks then doubled it and added azithromycin, flagyl to it for the other 7) for the past 9 weeks after finding an engorged tick. Off and...
No, not taking any meds....
Hi everyone, Does anyone have problems with their eyes? Even looking at someone while in conversation my eyes start to get incredibly tired, strained. I have to keep looking away and blinking b/c it...
Did anyone ever get an explanation from the doc on what was going on in the body that was actually causing it?...
NextAdventure, no, I'm not taking an Rx medications at all, only supplements like magnesium, malic acid, ribose, etc. I don't think it's anxiety as it never goes away and is accompanied by increased...
Thanks everyone for the feedback. For me it's always there and that's what kind of worries me a bit. I did check out the Fibro 101 list of symptoms but didn't see this mentioned. Did see the...
Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and was recently dxed with FMS. I have read up on it since then but one thing I rarely see mentioned is inner tremors, inner shaking or vibrating. It's almost like...
