Guest guest Posted August 20, 2005 Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 Penny, et al- Some help on flagyl pulses: 1. Both Stratton and Wheldon urge slow and gradual-- one tablet the first time, one a day for a few days the second, etc. Work up at your own rate. I actually found for the first round that I felt so much better using one flagyl a day for two days, that I did this once a week for a month. Then the effect built up and I began to stretch out to the recommended every three weeks. 2.After about two months, I build up a reaction to Flagyl where I got sick and nauseated even with one dose. I switched to Tinidazole and tolerate it much better. 3. One key I've found is that the endotoxic reaction builds up at about the second or third day now and I feel very sick, crappy all over, neurotoxic. I've found doing the Vitamin C flush does wonders for clearing this. You have to wait until the morning abx doses are absorbed so you don't waste them. Then one rounded teaspoon Buffered C powder (I use Allergy Research) every 15 minutes until bowel tolerance (ie evvacuation). My first time took up to 20 grams (yes grams), but it takes less now. Teitelbaum's site has instructions on the Vitamin C Flush somewhere. I think the effect is not just as a laxative, although this probably flushes out the endotoxin in the bowel our liver has processed, but a direct usage by the body to handle the oxidative stress of the bacterial endotoxin. It also helps less joint ache!
