can it really work that fast?
Get it almost every time.
Much improvment in symptoms esp. fatigue,
but with this reaction, means there is still infection I suppose?

(take it with zith, plaq and art pulsed)

my daughter is currently on Mepron for the 2nd time, the first time she couldn't tolerate it- it caused a very bad herx w/ a high fever requiring hospitalization.

This time we are not even up to a "therapeutic" dose yet (only at 1 tsp) and about 1-2 hours after I give her the mepron she begins sweating profusely (so bad that we have to change her clothes and her sheets), also with chills, extreme fatigue, headaches, etc.

She still tests positive for Babesia, but I am not sure we will be able to continue with this...

I herx from Mepron within minutes of taking it. In my case, my eyes start drooping. I think any herx symptom is evidence that we're still infected. I've been treating Lyme & cos for over 3 years, and I'm still amazed that so many antibiotics hasn't gotten rid of everything yet. It just shows how overwhelming the infections are.
