I've been on it for Chronic Fatigue/Chlamydia pneumoniae. The only thing that's finally helping! I started the site to get the word out on Stratton's work at Vanderbilt. They are the only ones who were able to show that you need different antibiotics to get at the different life phases of Cpn, or it just reinfects.
There are a couple people on the site who have Cpn and mycoplasma co-infections and it is taking care of both infections.

Jim, Kudos on the great site. I tested pos by PCR for 2 Myco-infections so I want to cover all my bases. It's refreshing to see a respected MD at a reknown teaching hospital created this and isn't chastized by peers for the lt abx regimens.

Starting the protocol next week...

Thanks for the kudos. Glad it's helpful for you. Dr. Stratton has put up with a lot but has high credibility. He's a true scientist-physician: his findings are solid and have helped a lot of people, but are ignored anyway. He's a microbiologist (head of Micro at Vanderbilt) and it's interesting about the difference between microbiologists, who tend to understand what bacteria can do, and infectious disease doc's who are extremely conventional in my experience and don't really "get" the organisms they are dealing with.

Opposing viewpoints:

"N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) may increase urinary excretion of zinc.38 Long-term users of NAC may consider adding supplements of zinc and copper."

PMID: 16298762...says the sort-of the opposite. NAC is okay.

Known: ALA depletes biotin. This is why Prof. Bruce Ames adds biotin to Juvenon which contains ALA and NAC.

The above ought to give you insight into the complexity of all of this.

Mycoplasms and Bb both do not have a LPS outer cell wall (mycoplasms do not have a cell wall, only a cell membrane). These are cholesterol, not a "sugary" LPS cell wall.

Unique. Totally unique.

Once you understand that, you will see we need to attack these pathogens from another perspective.

We have to INactivate PFK and INactivate HMG CoA reductase simultaneously.

Hit this pathogen from the sugar and cholesterol angles at the same time.

Only ONE nutrient can do this.

You guessed it.

Marnie- Could you please enlighten me in my ignoranceand/or brain fog. What is the "one nutrient" that can do that? Do you mean glutathione?
