Afternoon,

Finally done with babs treatment. My llmd is trying me on A-Bart to see how I do.

She said its very strong and prepare for a herx.

How many of you have tried A-Bart and what were your results?

Janice

There have been several of us on here that have tried A-Bart. I had dismissed it as being less than effective after 6 weeks of treatment, however, after stopping it 2 months ago, I have been steadily improving. Not sure what is causing that but A-Bart may have contributed.

Started Taking this about a month ago. After working up to five drops 2x per day I came down with the first cold i have had in over a year and a half. Other than that no real noticable differences yet.

I started a week ago and am up to 6 drops 2x /day. (I'm ramping quickly.)

I have to say..the first 2 days I noticed a flare in my foot / calf pain and almost no twitching of my calves (which is incredible for me.)

Today, after 6 drops, I notice I'm slightly on edge / nervous / anxious. So I'd say it is hitting it.

My goal is to incrase by 1 drop 2x / day each day, so that I will be up to 20 drops 2x / day by June 1 (when I start my next pulse of Factive.)

All in all I am plesantly pleased thus far. I haven't had this little twitching since coming down with lyme & co.
