OK...I pulsed Mino, Flagyl (high dose) and Biaxin last week.

My left side weakness was remarkably better during the week. I haven't walked that well in a while. I was achy and tired but did really well.

By Friday night I was starting the downward spiral, yesterday stayed in pjs all day. Had massive headache, alternating chills and sweating. Taking burbur detox every 4 or so hours and drinking lemon water.

Starting to feel somewhat better tonight but now it feels like my left side weakness is back where it was before the pulse.

Is this normal? I think my problem is that I want instant results and constantly question my diagnosis.

I think most who did well on Flagyl did not pulse it. My daughter took it everyday for 2 months and made alot of progress on it.

Flagyl really helped me but it was tough going initially.

I did mino, high dose flagyl and biaxin for 4 months and made the first significant improvement since beginning treatment 2 years earlier.

I felt absolutely dreadful for the first two months and then began to experience periods of feeling better.

I found n acetyl cysteine and alpha lipoic acid helped.

I pulsed the flagyl at 5 days on 2 off, for the entire 4 months.

Thanks all. I am feeling better now.

I had a couple of really rough days but I am hoping it was herx die off. I've been able to work this week and take care of my kids.

Overall I believe I am better than before the pulse. Will pulse again next week and talk to my LLMD this week.

Pippi I might need to try the cysteine and lipoic acid.

Increase vitamins when you take flagyl You have to take high dose of B6 and also other vitamins to .Herx is a sign that your body is deficient in alot of nutrients that he neds every day to regenerate and detox, bild new cells.

when you cause die-off of anything with flagyl or anything else, you also release toxic metals. The shifting of problems is typical for that. You need to have metal detox agents on board and binders to help get rid of the loose debris and avoid reabsorption and redistribution and resettling in different or same body compartsments.

We are dealing with many toxins, i.e. mostly neurotoxins, that need to be addressed when on any killing meds.

If you have turned allergic to the releases and the body cannot regulate them, you
may want to pay attention/ look at the Allergie Immun test and get the errors corrected.

Take care.
