my babs titers just won't budge! 7, 8 months - still at 128! all the other stuff is dying off and I feel lots better, but this is ridiculous.

what if I self med and just buy it? what will happen?

I am on mepron and ketek and plaquenil. also diflucan, acidophilus.

thanks!

Titers do not tell all, however, usually they drop as infection clears.

I will say, though another essential element in my treatment was garlic- as much as you can manage- it's not easy to eat. You may want to take it in pills, but I swear, chomping it down raw with lots of chewing seemed best....It may be best to take it at the same time as the artimesia, as I did, but I don't know that for sure.

Also with 'mepron' (pure atovaquone), you should be on azithromycin, too. (that's what I've known many LLMD's to prescribe).

There's an atovaquone combi called 'malarone' that I was on, as well as the artimesia/artimisinin/garlic. Instead of azithromycin, it has an element called "proguinil" (not plaquinil) that I never managed to find out much about.

artemisinin cannot be prescribed. its an herb, not a rx med

yeah, I know, not an Rx. but I still don't want to just take it.
