Does anyone actually feel better on malarone?
Or is it one of those things where you don't feel better until you stop taking it?
Been on it 4 weeks-haven't had 1 good day-no herxing, just tired, nauseous-the thought of eating makes me ill, needing occasionally to breathe harder, chest pressure and feel weak.
Not sure I'm gonna last months on it!

I've been on Malarone close to 3 months and I have yet to see an improvement. How many pills are you on? I'm on only 1 pill a day and I suspect that it isn't enough.
I still have sweats, fevers, chills, air hunger, headaches, severe fatigue, the works!
I'm going to talk with my Dr. next week about maybe doubling my dose to see if that helps any.

When I weighed about 100 lbs. I took four malarone a day.
I never took one pill a day.
Babesia was my hardest illness to get on top of.
