Anyone doing this combo? How long, and how have you done on it.
It really does work synergistically. It's kicking my daughter's hiney.

I had tingling of hands, something coarsing my blood, shortness of breath and slight heart palps. This started about an hour after I took it and it subsided in 30 min. As I increased I did not feel anything major.
By day 3 of full dose, I had severe eye twitching, vibrations, and blurriness. It always occurred the morning after the day I took it. I stopped and started a few times to make this discovery. Others have verified the same phenomena.
No major continued herxing for me, but I don't herx on most meds.

My daughter is on 10mg Doxy. Had to have it formulated.
She is having symptoms she hasn't had in seven years. She feels like a sword is going through her from front to back.
Pain has really increased.
Not sure she is going to work up beyond this. But, it is amazing how powerful this combo is.
Thanks for your input.

I began doxy about two weeks ago. I take 100mg twice a day. I take 12 mg stromectol twice a week. This keeps me close to symptom free.
My eyes are dry - have been since getting infected. I am also getting headaches which are relieved by imitatex. Otherwise I feel well.
I am on the low fat vegan(ish) diet, LDN and methyl cycle mutation supplements.
10 mg doxy is extremely low as 400mg is what you usually take for lyme. Your daughter must be very sensitive. Does she take stromectol every day? I did for awhile but cannot tolerate it every day now. It increased my eye irritation and headaches.

She takes 12mg stromectol every day. It took her one year to work up to that dose.
The doctor hesitated adding one more abx. But, she insisted. She is taking a year to really work on this disease. She had been trying to go to school. But, the stress wasn't helping.

Thanks Kelmo. I hope she overcomes this soon so she can get back to her life and school. My son has type one diabetes so I know how hard it is on them to go to school while managing an illness.

I have had so many problems with ABX and hate them, but still wonder if it would work if I took 100 mg daily with the ivermectin ? Anyone trying it ?
