Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Al, This is a good question. My experience was that I relapsed off Zithromax in about 3 months. That would LOOK like an elastase inhibitor, but then the other side of that is that I was still infected with borrelia and probably babesia. We absolutely know I still had borrelia. So was the Zithromax keeping it under control but not killing it off? Who knows? I get sick of saying this, but until we have better tests how can you tell? a Hi , Antibiotics were found to have other effects. Dr. Goldstein had stated in the past that antibiotics have a Neuro-regulatory effect. Alan Coccheto of the NCF reported that beta lactam type antibiotics are Elastase Inhibititors and that why CFS patients were feeling better ONLY while taking them. So the question now is, are you feling better because the antiobiotics are killing off something or beacuse of Dr. G's " Neuroregulatory effect " or because of the Elastase inhibiting effect ?
