My LLMD just put me on it. I'll stay on it for at least a full month and then reassess...

Regular liver checks are advisable but if those tests look good you should be OK to continue.

Is it doing anything for you, Cane?

Helps with some neuro-symptoms...

and generally speaking keeps Lyme at bay.

And obviously treats yeast.

It's not bad/great

I've been on it for a year. 200 mg. 4xper week.

Have had no problem While it is very expensive I

have never had any problems w/yeast and have had

no adverse side fx. I always take milk thistle

and my liver function is good so I am grateful

to be able to take it. I have had so many bad

side FX w/many of ABX but never Diflucan.

it's safe if you are taking the appropriate measures.

And nothing has helped me more than Diflucan, so far. Levaquin is in second place as far as impact. I saw a dramatic decrease in neuro sx after only a few days on Fluconazole. Now the way I see it is that my neuro sx were being caused by yeast/fungus or that diflucan has an impact on Lyme/Coinfs that isn't really understood. Either way.... [Smile]
