Hi All,
I have been off line for awhile. I am back...I think. In the meantime...
I went off all anbx for three months to try and straighten out my system. I am now on penicillin to see what happens.
I have been having a horrible time of it. All I am capable of is resting and working. No life to have but I have to pay my way in this wacky world.
I need a social life. Badly.
Anyway, hello to old and new. I send all the healing light of your choice.
Any feedback on Pen. greatly appreciated.
Blessings,
Marblenose [bonk]

Hi Marble,

I was just reading the old mepron buddies post with you in it! Was wondering about you.

Hope your system is clear! Are you getting the shots? Good for you!

Hey there nose,

I had my best results initially with amicillin way back...however symptoms returned after six months and taken off abx.

I also had some of my better days about four weeks into IM shots not too long ago...but that was discontinued also too soon IMO.

The oral variety...hmmm don't really know sorry.
I would hazard a guess though that tetracycline orally would be better.

However you know we are all different.

See what happens and hope it's a good thing. I would'nt expect too too much right away with the penni...give it a month or two anyway.

What dose and how often are you taking this?

Hi lymie tony z,
I am on 1,000 mg 3x a day. My LLMD and I went thru my whole chart from last year and looked at what I took, what worked, how much relief I got. Talk about sad. 1-2 good months the whole year not together of course.
So we are starting on Pen to see what happens LLMD said to expect IV again later in the year. LLMD also said worse case scenario is 4-5 good months...best case healing.
I vote for that one.
How's by you?
Blessings,
