My LLMD said that he had 11 patients work with it and 9 had improvement and of those 5 had dramatic improvement. Those are pretty good odds.

I didn't ask if they were mixing it with their abx. I did ask him if I could take it along with my abx and he said sure. Currently I am herxing enough on my abx that I don't want to add fuel to the fire.

Salt & C is a great adjunct. But watch out for parasites releasing heavy metals in dye-off. It's not a herx, but it is heavy metals on the move that you need to mop up. There is lots about this in my previous posts.

Take care.

Not many studies are done on any natural product but here's one...I'd suggest combining Vit C or silver with the abx you take. The "herx" may be a toxin release from bacteria (including borrelia) fighting off the abx. Maybe start with the natural abx first then throw in the traditional abx.
best of luck.

Synergic interaction between ascorbic acid and antibiotics against
Pseudomonas aeruginosa

ABSTRACT

Studies were carried out on in vitro combination of ascorbic acid (AA)
with six antibiotics against 12 multi-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa
isolates. Synergic activity was detected with AA chloramphenicol,
kanamycin, streptomycin and tetracycline. Indifference was observed to
any antibiotics and antagonism only for chloramphenicol. Results
indicated that multiresistant P. aeruginosa was affected by combination
of AA and antibiotics. Future research on ascorbic acid-antimicrobial
interactions may find new methods to control strains of multiresistant
P. aeruginosa.

Key words: Ascorbic acid, antibiotic, synergy, Pseudomonas aeruginosa
