Just read an interview with a German physician who treats chronic Lyme with Diflucan and narrow spectrum penicillins ostensibly with good results...but I need to see the studies and want more evidence.
http://www.immunesupport.com/library/showarticle.cfm/id/6431

Mechanism of diflucan has to do with inhibiting cytochromeP450 not only ours...but the spirochete's!

Very thought provoking.

I am trying this for the second time. Last month I started it and had back pain come back and I immediately went on the abxs again.

The first two times I tried this I had a visual aura like none I had ever experienced before. For the last 15 years I have had migraines which have a visual aura that blocks out my periferal vision or gives me static in my visual field and sometimes shapes.

Taking the diflucan gave me a star wars like aura...all these little white dots coming at me. It happened twice on the second and third day of taking it. It would last less then a minute. It hasn't happened since.

It is this occurance of a new aura which makes me think that there may have been lyme kill going on.

I am one week in and so far this time and almost all the floaters in my eyes have resolved...of course then I wonder does this mean that all of those ketes that I scared into my eyes with rigorous antibiotic treatment are now feeling safe to go back into the more permeable tissues of my body since the abx threat is over???

I know that I was fighting yeast though and so it will be hard to know if it was the lyme or the yeast...

I think Dr. Schardt's life experience and explanantion makes sense though in regards to the P450.

I feel like all I have to lose is a little ground I have made, a lot of yeast and possibly LYME...and that would be just the best gift. ;0)

I will keep you posted.

Like I said...hit it hard (IM penicillin), fast, and get out (initially!). "Boo" to doxy. I said a long time ago...wrong choice.

"They" recommend the cheapest abx, for the shortest length of time...hoping one's own system will rid this infection with a "little" help. Sometimes it is enough...depending on infection load, co-infections, and own immune strength.

Diflucan appears to interfere with the cholesterol pathway.

Cat's claw, etc. hit from the glycolysis pathway.

Better to hit the cholesterol and glycolysis pathways simultaneously - using ONE thing. I know of 2. (Mg is the safest.)

Get alkaline. Use the antioxidants...all of them. Way too many free radicals. Not enough hydrogen...pH...need more, higher, more alkaline.

? Is elevated TNF alpha throwing off the "true" pH measurement?
