Topic: On antibiotics for a week and feeling better?!?

I decided to buy antibiotics online last week and treat myself (I'm taking 1,000 mg of amoxacillin/day) and already I think I'm feeling better. I had one really terrible day last week when I first started taking it, but after that I saw remarkable improvement. The tingling and burning in my legs has gone down dramatically. When I do have it, the intensity is down maybe as much as 50%.

And overall I feel just a little better than I was before. Maybe it's all just a placebo effect but I think it might be working.

By the way, if you are like me and cannot find a LLMD in your area and are forced to treat yourself, talk to me. I can tell you where to find good cheap antibiotics without a prescription. [Smile]

Glad to hear it. You may want to look into homeopathic cyst busters as there is a chance your Abx are turning the Bb into cysts which will come back after you go off meds.

I think GSE is one. Others may have info.
