Guest guest Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Hi Penny: Not sure if you've already posted this...but what are you currently taking that's making you feel so good: zithro? Penicillin V or G Diflucan? Are you doing glutathione? I'm still trying to find the right proto. I'm currently on zithro and lots of supplements....feeling a tad better, but still have a LONG way to go. Especially with fatigue. I'm seeing my llmd and cfs docs tomorrow...would love to be able to discuss what you're doing w/them.
