I am doing Cryptolepis twice a day - 40 drops and I have had awful neck upper neck head pain and pain in my quads. It is almost like I can't lift my head. Is this typical of hitting Bart? Thanks!

My daughter has used this off and on over the past 8 months. It has been very helpful for Babesia. I have not heard of it being used for Bart, but that doesn't mean it isn't so. It sounds like your Bart symptoms are coming out after knocking down babs.

I did. I think it is what kicked babs for me. That with mepron and artemisinin together after 5 months of artemisinin and lariam. It's been 6 months with no relapse so far.

I was told to start with 60 drops 3x/day, work up to max dose of 1 tsp 3x/ day. I haven't been good about remembering to take it 2-3x per day so I can't fairly say if it is helping at all.

I took it for some time, but it had no effect.
The symptoms you describe sound like Babs, so it looks like you are responding to it.

Taking that much sounds expensive. I have some sitting on the shelf. I will try it again. Are you supposed to pulse it?

I did 1/2 teaspoon three times a day or one teaspoon twice a day.

Thank you all... This is great information. I am taking 30 drops three times a day... I was told this by another board member that beat Babs this way. She has monitored herself via blood slides and no return.
