The LLMD has prescribed Mepron and I am having reservation.
It was what I needed on the ART testing.
I need a little positive support here.
Can you pass on your experiences?

I think Mepron helped my cognitive problems which is my worst symptom. It helps me to think.

cozy..maybe I'm still here because of it..but I couldn't say it's done anything....
most likely has I just can't tell.
The symptoms and herx's and just crude/...run together so much..
I am starting to notice more events happening in a cycyle.....so look out full moon is here
some swear by it..At first I was told to look for changes around 6 month's with it...well that's come and gone by at least 3-4

When I started taking it felt horrible on day 3-7 but after that I felt than I had in many months. Fatigue in my body lifted and 3 of the joints that had been bothering me stopped.
Of all the drugs I've been on I found the biggest change and improvement on Mepron.

Thanks for the input. I am going to hope I am one of the lucky ones it helps.
The prescription is only for 21 days.
A friend who take Mepron says she skimps a bit on each dose so she can be covered for the full month.
She does this because her insurance will only cover that amount per month.
Any other solutions or options with this drug?

I've been on it over a year. Not done yet. I have to increase dosage by adding Malarone a few months back. I think it has been a big help, but I am still highly symptomatic. Parasites are next.
