Guest guest Posted May 21, 2001 Report Share Posted May 21, 2001 Hey guys...almost among the living again <g> thanks everyone for their suggestions. I 'll give my question 1st and an update if anyone is interested... As I have mentioned I am trying the " basic Chaney " protocol except for the B12 which I get the script for tomorrow, and Kutapressin. My dr had not had great results with it, but I wondered if anyone had, and felt it was worth pushing for. I do have a positive PCR for EBV (in addition to my Lyme). Anyhow, my progress... I have cut down drastically on Immunocal. Right now I am at 1 1/2 teaspoon once a day. Despite cutting back on this, and some of my vitamins, I was in terrible shape by midweek last week. Had not been out of apt for over 2 weeks (and I live alone), unbearable pain- up to 60mg oxycontin bid with still break through pain, exhaustion (I didn't cook, clean), and suicidally depressed. A couple days I just sat and cryed.... So, made appt with Psychiatrist for later this week, and decided to restart IV antibiotics. Felt I had nothing to lose....So did 500mg of Iv Zithromax- felt AWFUL: extreme nauseau, fatigue to point of falling asleep while infusing...just horrible, horrible for about 2-3 hours. And then....whomp...all of a sudden I felt fine....no depression,no malaise, reduced fatigue, reduced pain. I swear to heavens, it was like someone had switched a toggle in my brain. Unbelieveable....no it didn't last permanently...by about 20 hours later feeling pretty punky again, so infused another 500mg of Zithro. Same as day before, felt awful, and then in a couple hours...whomp...and I felt fine again. Better than at least 2 months. Ran around and did cleaning frenzy for about 4 hours until I ran out of steam. First cleaning in two months. SO, decided to stop it fot 2 days...felt okay, but slow slide down. Restarted Zithro and done 500mg once a day for last 4 days. Not quite as dramatic, butMUCH better than I was, especially depression. Continuing with rest of chaney protocol...SO tomorrow will talk to Dr to see if I can figure out some schedule to pulse Zithro without getting sick from it, but where it will help me. One thing it did do....reconfirm that Lyme is still a big problem for me... Oh, and another thing I'm gonna try...a local goat farmer has agreed to give me the colustrom from the last set of her breeding goats for the season. Real colostrum, and from animals I am almost certain have been exposed to Lyme carrying ticks. This could be very interesting...So will see what happens. Will follow with raw goat's milk- Yuck... Thanks again for all the ideas...we'll see.... tansy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
