Hey there Tree-hugger! Yes, I have been trying to gag down peanut butter with it in the mornings.
I'm about a week in this time around and think I will add ART next week.

A tablespoon 2x a day? WOW? That stuff's a bit too expensive to be making dosage errors with!!

Thanks all! I wonder what the half-life is on this and if I should perhaps skip tonight's dose and start at the correct dose in the morning?

There were times I had to skip doses because of herxing. I never really skipped more than one dose at a time and that was usually just once per month. Listen to your body. Coffee enemas were a daily thing for me during babs treatment.

OK, so if many of you have taken 2 teaspoons, 3 teaspoons is not THAT too large of a dose then, right?
Anyway, I do think I will skip tonight.
Hey Sammi! Actually, I've been on Bicillin, but I'm taking a short break from that too. I know I am suppose to be doing other things as well, so I think I will take Zith with the ART next week.
(at least that is the plan tonight)
I'm just really trying to maintain a place where I can still function enough to work, so I'm adding things in very gradually as needed.

Hi Melanie! I believe Mepron needs to be taken with certain antibiotics to work properly, so it is good you will be taking Zithromax with it.
I understand about adding things in gradually so you can continue to function.
