I am on IV plus azithro and now I need to add falgyle but I am pretty scared that this is going to overload me as it did before.
I was thinking of taking it slow by pulsing and would appreciate information on how pulsing works and how to do it.
Thanks for the help

I think only your doctor can recommend how to do this. I can only tell you what I am doing...I am on 400 mg of Doxy and pulse 1000 mg of Flagyl for 3 days every 2 weeks. But that is ME based on my docs orders. Your situation is different.

I probably should re-word my message. I am just looking to find out how others are pacing.
My doc is great but he admits that he is not a lyme specialist and so I am just looking for input on how others are pacing their antibiotics.
Thanks

Are you talking about IV or Oral?
When I was on IV Zithro It was 500mg 1x day and I added IV Flagyl of 750MG 2x a day.
I was doing a lot of integrative IVs as well as a full protocol and lots of detox and immune support.
That all has helped me tremendously. I am off abx totally now and just doing detox and immune support forward and getting stronger and improving all the time.
I really do hope that people will keep in mind and consider when doing abx to add in two other parts of the puzzle at least of immune support and detox. That makes it a 3 part puzzle that after researching I have heard over and over and over..
Do not skip the parts because that sets you up for either no progress, little progress or relapse. Just from what I have heard from people and doctors over the years.
Good Luck Blessings
