Guest guest Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Thanks for your responses so far. Found some interesting comments on amoxy in high doses for Lyme's. http://www.geocities.com/HotSprings/Oasis/6455/doxy-amox.txt This guy notes that, while doxy is bacteriastatic (in the Wheldon protocal it's being used exactly for that reason to drive the Cpn into it's non-replicating anaerobic form where it is killed by the flagyl pulses), amoxy is bacteriacidal. So what I may be getting is a direct, big kill of Cpn, just need to do it enough to get to the relief phase. He also notes that the interference by doxy is that, since amoxy kills the bacteria during replication, if doxy is limiting replication the amoxy has less of that phase to work in. His experience is that this is not as much of a concern as is said. I can attest to that! Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Jim: Yes- from what I've read of him - I was very impressed with his thinking. That's why after you get the load down to a managable number, serial high dose changing abx classes ( or combo's rotated correctly) is very effective, at hunting down, damaging, then killing the ones that managed to get away with monotherapy... The you have to alkalize the cell vacuole - and really get the rest of them.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Jim, I thought those dental studies were interesting in pointing out that certain abx effectiveness against organisms were increased dramatically when flagyl was added in. Perhaps the increased in effectiveness is why people are benefitting so much from flagyl? penny > Thanks for your responses so far. > > Found some interesting comments on amoxy in high doses > for Lyme's. > http://www.geocities.com/HotSprings/Oasis/6455/doxy-amox.txt > This guy notes that, while doxy is bacteriastatic (in > the Wheldon protocal it's being used exactly for that > reason to drive the Cpn into it's non-replicating > anaerobic form where it is killed by the flagyl > pulses), amoxy is bacteriacidal.
