I talked to my LLMD and told him about the constant sweats even tho I stopped the mepron almost 2 weeks ago, the muscle weakness, debilitating fatigue, etc and he told me to d/c the zith also and start flagyl, very very slowly.

I know flagyl is a cyst buster and can be rough. Here are my questions - will the babesia become resistant? Should I add artemisinin at some point? How long will this newly opened bottle of mepron last?$$$$ Also, my main question is what do you think is his reasoning for this? I know he believes the turtle wins the race. I wondered if it would be better to just deal with the sx, even though my right hand is becoming very weak and the fatique is immobilizing.

What do you think?
