Considering tomorrow just not to drip, take orals, nothing except my regular meds and supplements. Has anyone done for a day or is a day too soon to see or feel anything different?

I took a week off once. Called my LLMD and requested a min-abx vacation : )

Yes, I have taken a day off and it feels great. I feel the bacteria trying to come back but our body needs a break from all of these meds.

I've taken a day off here and there, a week off and last month took the entire month off. All were positive and I felt better afterwards.
It gives the body a break and confuses those darn spirochetes!
And I don't feel I went backwards at all except during the long month break but that certainly helped me detox even if some of the symptoms came back. Once back on abx they cleared up again.

I give my little one a day off here and there. Especially when he seems to be having stomach issues or severe eye pain. I plan on taking him completely off in May. That will be one year of treatment....
Personally, not comfortable allowing treatment to go longer than that. Hoping it's enough...

Usually weekends off are good, especially with IV treatment since in case any issues with the IV line come up you can call the doctor.
