How about taking your meds for 28 days straight. Then stop for two full days, drink only distilled water, eat lots of fiber, and healthy...
This will flush out your system/toxins and also give the germs time to come out again, and then you begin to blast them again!
Am I dreaming too much here?
Thanks,

Yes, sounds like a bit of a dream.
Water will not get the toxins out. You need to do something to bind them like chlorella or other binding agents...

Borrelia toxin is insoluble in water

Water is still very key to move -anything-. Ingest all the toxin binders you can and you still need water to move these. I am on prunes, pumpkin seeds, psyllium, celery, and more. And without at least 2qt.s water a day it won't budge. Digestive muscles, see Ann's post about nueropathy.

I am a huge proponent of drinking pure water. My point is that it will not likely increase the amount of borrelia toxins, neurotoxins, metals, etc. that need to be bound and removed. They just get recirculated over and over.... That is why we need binding agents.

That's a good thinking.
To induce dominant Bb form to abx sensitive form or induce Bbs out of their hinding places.
Without abx and under favorite condition (somebody suggested usig suger, don't remember who), they'll be on party, them Bang, heavy abx, wipe out them all.

Rob-
When I was on IV, it was pulsed, ie 5 days on and 2 off. The idea being to let the body and gallbladder get somewhat back to normal.
There are a few people here that have posted various pulses routines their doctors have prescribed.
Once when I travelled and didn't take enough pills along, I couldn't count very well for a while, I had to go a few days without abx. My llmd said a few days was ok, but no more. I would discuss pulsing with your doctor before you do it.
Now, many years into treatment our llmd is pulsing our current med. He has no data to suggest that the best schedule is so we are trying different numbers of days on and off.
The idea of de-toxing on the days off works for me. We do extra water, exercise, heat and suppliments when off drugs. Water and fiber are the original detox methods. With the amount of environmental and dead keet toxins in our systems it is looking like humans need extra help to keep toxin levels low.

I know some of us have this on and off routine, so I was just curious...

Hey Rob
This type of stategy of 28 on and 2 days off is called pusling.
It works for some and not for others.
My LLMD has been pulsing me for years. It depends on the thinkin of the different LLMD'S and the person's individual needs.
I personally trhink it has been vauluable for me in allowing my body to "re-group". In many ways. not just for "dumping toxins but to allow my stomach to heal,clear my mind,allow me a mental break,work on de-yeastifying.
I have able to tolerate it well. But, some people relaspe qucikly and this statagy doesn't work for them.
take care dana
Make sure to talk over evrything first with your LLMD.

It sounds like your drugs just aren't strong enough. You should have seen a change by now.
