Guest guest Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 C Pneumonia is the bug that is being targeted in my treatment.Yes, I have read some things implicating C Pneu with asthma. I believe it as I didn't develop asthma until I was 43 and there is no history of asthma in my family. I have bugs others too but I'm hoping eradicating this one will take a big load off my immune system.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 I used Cipro but it was a rough ride. But it worked. (mostly).

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 I can't use Cipro. Have strong neuro reaction to it.Knowing what I know from reading this forum I may have been having a neuro herx. But don't want to take a chance with it again. Marie My understanding is that if it is chronic you need to use the Flagyl as well because that kills it in the cryptic stage. --- Colourbleu <colourbleu@...> wrote: > I used Cipro but it was a rough ride. > But it worked.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 I do still have some pockets that are localised, but still active. I tried Flaygl but had a really bad attack of candida. I am watching you closely... I might try again one day. > > I can't use Cipro. Have strong neuro reaction to > it.Knowing what I know from reading this forum I may > have been having a neuro herx.
