I thought I read somewhere that at 8-9 mos of treatment, many pts feel worse because the immune system starts to kick in, so they feel like they are backsliding.

Anyone know anything about this? I'm at mos 9, and feeling horrible.

I started feeling alot better at about 6 months. Maybe you need to treat for co-infections? What abx are you on? Whats the dosage?

I'm at 11 months and still feel terrible. Issues have been co-infections and inability to detox issues according to LLMD.

I'd put my money on it varying from one to the next, depending in part on how long you have been infected prior to treatment.

It was over 40 years for me, so I am, not expecting an overnight return to fantastic health. Just being able to function consistently on a regular basis would be nice!

I've been in treatment for 13 months now. [Big Grin]
