I'm working my way up to five pills x 2 then three days off and then back on. This is for Babs. I will also be adding Samento soon.

Just wondered what the typical protocol is.

I'm using Allergy Research Group 200 mg.

thanks

I took 2-3 pills per day, everyday, ALONG WITH ZITHROMAX so the babs would not become resistant.

Good question. It says to take before meals - but so far I forget and take during.

So far I'm just doing Art. for Babs and then some Samento but I'm just getting started with this Dr. Waiting on tests, etc.

My LLMD had me pulse Zhangs Art2 from Hepapro 10 days a month, then 20 days off. I had to build up from Zhangs regular Art because this stuff was so strong.

I eventually added malarone, and my ECP dropped from 31 to 11. LLMD wants it below 10 before I stop. ECP from Lab Corps is an indirect test for Babesia.

My stamina did increase from this protocol, but the neurolyme is still there. Am treating Lyme with Flagyl and ceftin.

Good news CherylSue. So glad you are getting better!
Hope everyone wins the battle with babs.
My ECP is 10 so supposedly I am done treating after 2 years. No babs symptoms really at this time.
My boys aren't so lucky.

CherylSue can you explain ECP. What is it and why does it show levels of Babs. I'm seeing my doc soon and he may not be up on it, so I'll have to explain it.

What is normal range for ECP?

Ktdommer, what did you treat with. Do you feel that the bags is gone?

I'd be interested to know about the ECP, as well.

Thanks for the replies.

mojo, my lyme doc said to take it on an empty stomach. So, I hope you are taking it before meals as the instructions tell you to do.
