Nelly,

I recently started full time doxy and ocassionally pulse

clarithromycin (from my personal dwindling stash). When I pulse, I

notice a deep penetrating,rotating, boring pain in an area where I

had an absess on my left maxillary ostium, and pulsating pain at

other less infected areas. It seems this combination really gets to

work on the bugs (doxy and zith didn't???). Could you find a link so

I can take the info to my doc?

Thanks,

soon, so I'll be very prudent.

was not able to continue due to extreme reactions (mainly

excrutiating headaches-actually they should be called something else-

also increase of inflammation everywhere to the point where I

thought it was dangerous) or to worrying drops in blood parameters

(severe neutropenia with the penicillins and the cephalosporins) or

to very mediocre to nil effects (clarythromycine even with plaquenil

which made me catatonic).

99 but one week a month just wasn't enough for my level of infection

which I am sure was massive), and it seems that a combo of 2 abx

(macrolide and cycline at average levels each) is what is needed as

per Stratton/Wheldon on a continuous basis, the short bursts of

imidazoles once a month seem to be tolerable and might lead to a

gradual erosion of the bacterial load without too much of a payoff.
