2 days ago I started Mepron --2 tsp a day-- Biaxin XL-- 2 500 a day--
I woke up this morning and actually feel perty good--
I got a medium head ache about three hours after taking first doses and it lasted till this morning
I also got WB results (Igenx) Test said I was somewhat positive for Lyme
Babs test came back mostily negitive--
There is Zero doubt in my mind that I have Lyme and or Babs--
I had a perfect lyme bruse 20 years ago on back of my leg and have been very sick ever sence -- with almost every symptom on the list--
A little over 2 years ago I saw a TV show on Lyme and found a DOC who would give me Doxi
Then I found this site and I upped my dose to 500 to 600mg aday.
I have been on doxi for about 27 months--Ouch
The doxi has made a huge differance but it has been up and down-- and I never felt good.
I am still taking Doxi and am planning to take it for awhile longer ---
Sure would be nice if this Good Feeling lasted awhile-- ---Jay---

Mepron does wonders. Love mepron. I'm on my 15th week.
Thank God for mepron.

YEAH! I AGREE MEPPY IS GROOOVY!
So happy for you but I have a coment, I am not a doctor but for what I read we suppose to take the mepron with zithro or ketek; anyone knows by sure????? or maybe the biaxin does the same job than zithro or ketek, don't know??????
Please check with the LLMD, YOU DON'T WANT TO WASTE THE PRECIOUS YELLOW PAINT, isn't cheap!!!
I took mepron with zithro for 6 months and then mepron with ketek for 3 months; now I am on malarone.
Take care, Lymster in WA

Hi All I have been feelin perty good all day--I even did some of the dishes--Ouch
I sure hear you on mepron being expencive --Im going to have to sale my house perty soon to be able to afford it But I would rather be sleeping under the stars feeling good than being sick--
This time I was Very Lucky and a nice woman gave me the mepron thru my doctor because she did not need it any more--
Biaxin is high dollar too.
What ever it is that is working-- I sure can feel it so far.--Jay--

Yup, back on the Mepron myself. Tried Malarone and had a bad reaction to it - too bad. It was easy to take and a tiny bit less expensive. Had to switch back to Mepron. The stuff is so gross but so helpful.
Hang in there. Enjoy your good days.

GREAT 4 YOU!!
THe mepron WIPED OUT my daughters migranes within a week and nixed her chills/sweats.
kicks butt but we do kid about the poster paint. She doesnt mind taking it tho because it has changed her life. pattiecake

Biaxin and zithromax are both in the macrolide class of antibiotics, so maybe they both work with mepron. The reason zith + mepron is touted is that it was the combination used in a study that compared clindamycin + quinine combo with this one. Don't think anyone has studied the alternative macrolides.
