Re: Re: IV antibiotics.....

[Guest guest]

My dr and i chose to do long term abx - shots twice a week for about 3 years -

she said IV patients seem to get better than relaps - she believes in a slow -

long treatment - It worked for me.

I was recently diagnosed, and am speaking with my doc tomorrow about

the possiblitity of IV abx. I don't want to pursue it, though, it the

minuses outweigh the pluses...

If you had it to do over again, would you go the IV abx route?

Thanks,

What are the minuses about IV abx? I have been on them for nearly 10 weeks and

never ever felt better!

Other than the yeast issues..haha...that's easy enough to fix up though...

Dear carolyn:

Can you relate more specifics about your experience. it sounds very

promising as I was on IV rocephin for 2 months and have seemed to

relapse after a month of no abx.

thanks

So does chemotherapy, but I'd rather take my chances with abx than

chemotherapy.

Some people do have continuing yeast problems that are not easy to resolve

and there is danger of infection where the needle is inserted. But I'm no

expert on the dangers -- since I decided to avoid IVs due due to the possible

side effects and expense and because I heard that some people are on them for

very long periods with no benefit or they have a benefit, but they relapse

later.

So, after 2 years of oral antibiotics didn't help, I decided instead to try

the Marshall Protocol, which uses immune modulation and low pulsed doses of

oral antibiotics. A number of people who failed with IV antibiotics are now

improving on the Marshall Protocol (see recent issue of Lyme Times and

_http://members.aol.com/SynergyHN/transcript_

(http://members.aol.com/SynergyHN/transcript) for overviews). I am happy

with my progress, but I recommend the MP

be studied carefully and also that one does it very slowly and cautiously,

since the Herxing can be so powerful.
