He was treating for 22 months.

Talktel - Remission is two months with little or no symptoms. That is my LLMD's guide for getting off abx.

We were both sick at least 12 years before we were treated. Sometimes it is hard to go back and pinpoint the start of symptoms.

Finally, we are looking forward to getting back to our real healthy life with a few modifications. Being sick like this makes you change your priorities.

Fun is in the schedule for sure and working smart!

Faithful, what was your treatment? I think you said IVs pushed you over the edge to health whereas orals did not?
