Hello everyone, need some wisdom! I have pretty intense intermittant pain on both sides of my ribs deep though like my liver and spleen? I am taking 1000 mg a day of zith with a teaspoon of mepron per day. I am not really taking any supplements except yeast defense, probiotics, garlic, and iron (anemic now ?) I need something to support liver I guess? anyone else had this and found a solution? Always concerned about liver due to my toxic body. Any help would be grately appreciated.
Take care,
mimi

HI. You absolutely should be taking something to help protect your liver. Get Milk Thistle capsules 300 mg. and take one in the a.m. and one in the p.m. I order my supplements from www.vitacost.com. Great prices and service.

Thank you both for the replies

I will buy the milk thistle today. Carol it started yesterday so no not yet. I am wondering if it is a herx? I have been on this abx for about 45 days now.
Thanks again,
mimi

I will agree that it is common. My son had rib pain for a lil bit. He hasn't had any lately but he did.

groovy and briteeyes, Thanks for your replies. Groovy if someone could bring up the old post I would appreciate it my search function does not work. But I think it is from all of the toxins in my body from the abx. not sure but maybe
Thanks again,
mimi
