Can only take Alinia for 2 days, then I'm off for 2 weeks. Most folks take it for 3 days. Does anybody know if 2 days can accomplish anything? Or am I wasting my time?
Thanks

why do you take for only 2 days? what happens?

my feeling is that if u can't only take for 2 days and then it's not tolerable-then it's clearly doing something.

Sounds like it's doing something. The critters create lots of neurotoxins when they eliminate and when they die. This can cause fatigue and other symptoms.

Are you using binders?

The only binder I can tolerate is Welchol.

So I guess I can put up with the fatigue if it has a positive outcome in the end.

I guess I was just wondering about the life cycle of parasites and only treating them for 2 days instead of the traditional 3 days.

I'm doing Alinia for 14 days on, currently it's day 10, and we just went over full moon-

It's not fun, I'm tired a lot tho, anyway. Keep the bowels moving, maybe add some drainage remedies, Epsom salt baths-

I don't have a job to show up to, but 3 kids who don't let me rest, so, I get the fatigue and how difficult it is to live with.

I'm not sure just 2 days is enough. I'm also doing some parasite herbals with it.

My LLMD said Alinia also hits Lyme.
