Hey everyone! [woohoo]

Started Bicillin LA 1.2 mil shots, every other day,
5 weeks ago. This is about the worst I feel since
starting meds. My walking is bad, and I seem drunk alot.

Anyways, about the cranberry.
Before the Bicillin, several weeks ago, I drank some pure cranberry juice (not the sugary stuff). Within a half an hour I felt floaty, puffy, and dizzy, kinda like the flu. Within a day or two I felt much better, like I beat some bugs up.

Today, I tried my Moms cranberry pills, and within 30 minutes, that flu like feeling hit my whole body. Can barely fuction.

I'm convinced the cranberry is doing something very good to create a reaction like that.
I have seen that cranberry is anti-viral, ant-parasite, anti-fungal.

If I feel much better tomorrow or the next day, I'll post a follow-up.

Will

Current meds:
Bicillin LA 1.2 mil, 16 times a month
Mepron 2 twice a day
Zithromax 500 mg a day
Methyl B12 shots twice a week

Recently my Dr, upped my Quercetin to 6 x 250mg a day. and added Alka Seltzer Gold for "Kill-Off" clean-up.

Well then.. you've stumped the chump here... yes... ME!

Lyme loves the bladder. Could you be stirring up Lyme there too?

Very interesting.

Could you be allergic to cranberry?

Hmmmmmmm....

Do lettuce no how it goes... and I hope you feel better soon!

Thanks!
What I meant, was that it does make me feel much better the next day, as if it cleared out bugs and toxins. I thought cranberry cleaned the blood too?
Makes sense since I have Babs too.

Also, several weeks ago my walking got much better
for 3-4 days, then went downhill again. Always baffled me. Then yesterday, I realized that was likely the week I was using Lemons in my drinking water the whole week until I was out.
Now my Dr. want me to try Alka Seltzer Gold to bring ph to Alkaline, just like the Lemons do.

OMG - Bicillin LA every other day???

One shot a week made me feel drunk...2 shots is "normal" - why so many shots?

Azithro is a kick rear drug too with a half life of almost 70 hours.

I'd call my LLMD and let him know this is making you feel "drunk"...I can't believe you are tolerating this protocol.. wow, will wonders never cease.
