Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 Hi, When i first went on the mepron and zithromac combo I was floored for over a week. The doc says it is a herx reaction which means it is working. I am curious to see how it works with the cholestyramine I have now added. Well, I did cook, cut and freeeze 10 dozen ears of corn today in addition to numerous up and dow nthe stairs trips, now I am going to bake some banana bread and a peach pie so something is working in me either that or i have inhabited another persons body while sleeping last night. I have learned the worse meds makes you feel the better it is working! What happened to the days when meds fixed you quick!

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2001 Report Share Posted August 9, 2001 Dyana, Thanks. That's not really what I wanted to hear. I hurt and I'm sick to my stomach. Sometimes I feel like I'm gonna die.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2001 Report Share Posted August 9, 2001 Glen, Thanks for letting me know how good of a job it does. Garbage was the only nice word that I could think of. The pain is causing only no-so-nice words come to mind. Thanks.

Also Potatoe chips were recommended - I have no problem with either. In fact, now OFF the M. but still on Ceftin I still like my egg and chips (not in the same meal of course!!) like perhaps it is a habit??

I was told and have read the standard treatment for babesia is Mepron and Zithromax in combination together. I was on that treatmeant for 3 mos. The only bad side affect I had was violent dizzy spells that would put me in bed.. Other than that I was fine...Hope this helps..

I am hesitant to take it. Does anyone have > any experience with it? Any side effects? I am > currently on IV Claforan 6 gms a day Kim, Mepron is the standard treatment for Babesia...sometimes used with other drugs, but most often used alone. I do not know of anythng else successful in killing babesia on its own. Claforan wont do it. I was on Mepron for about 2 months as my LLMD supected babesia even though my test came back negative. I had no side effects....nothing! Didn't bother me at all...cept for the kinda nasty banana taste it had. But that was realy no big deal. Besides, i was getting severe sweats several times a day AND night. At the peak almost every two hours i would break out in severe sweats, and anytime i exerted myself. Also right on thru the night - every 1 - 2 hours would wake up soaking wet. In a mattter of minutes i would be drenched, and have to change my clothes into dry stuff. Plus an awfull feeling thru body and the skin while i was sweating. Babesia is a blood parasite...lives in the red blood cells, much as Malaria does..and malaria also produces severe drenching sweats. I would of taken the Mepron even with side effects, as nothing i ever experienced, side effect wise, was more awful then those sweats!! The severe sweats is what made my LLMD think babesia even tough test was negative at the time (we know how test can go). I would not hesitate if i were you....if you dont have the sweats yet...dont wait for them to start to convince you to take it! Skip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
