Re: How to handle side effects of abx?
Hi Lib, by and large, these side effects are not experienced by most people to any great extent. I managed doxycycline and roxithromycin easily: well. I sicked my doxycycline up once when I took it and straight away jumped into the shower without eating.
Metronidazole most people find disgusting: the metallic taste lingers and lingers. Tinidazole is slightly better. Both can make you feel depressed, which is why they are pulsed.
Oh, and rifampicin has little imunomodulation: when I changed to it for six months at first it made me want to walk in circles rather than a straight line, but I did get used to it.

An Itinerary in Light and Shadow Completed Dr Charles Stratton / Dr David Wheldon abx regime for aggressive secondary progressive MS in June 2007, after four years. Still improving with no relapses since starting. Can't run but can paint all day.

Re: How to handle side effects of abx?
Lib, where can I find this WHO information about 8000 people a year dying from taking antibiotics? In the UK people with meningococcal and other septicaemias often will die because they have to be given enormous IV doses very quickly to stop the death which would otherwise ensue.
Maybe you troubles are due to long term use of antibiotics and you should take your doctor’s advice, but maybe they are due to something else. I didn’t think you had been taking the stuff for that long. One thing is for certain, though, antibiotic use does not cause colds or other infections!

Re: How to handle side effects of abx?
This does not sound good. I am new here and wondering what I can expect if I start the abx. My family doctor already told me that taking abx for more than a few months can cause problems. Now, when I am reading these lines it seems to me that these problems are not addressed yet.Anecdote wrote:Lib, where can I find this WHO information about 8000 people a year dying from taking antibiotics?

So, if I meet any problems with abx, I can rely on only my judgement, even though I am not a doctor. For God's sake, we are talking about a prescription drug.
Aren't any doctor familiar with this abx protocol in this forum??? At least, in CCSVI forum people can ask them and consult with them.

Re: How to handle side effects of abx?
Lib, I can’t tal about David’s patients, it would be unethical unless they talk about themselves, which I am doing about me and I had no problems. I must add that I never had the noral childhood viruses so maybe there was nothing to re-emerge but these latent viruses sink back as your immune system becomes tougher with the treatment. My immune system reallyhas become stronger and quite quickly because firstly I haven’t had a cold since 2003 and also I used to be very allergic to nsect bites, especially mosquito bites. I think they like the smell of my blood because they still bite me as much but with hardly any reaction.
To Hebron and Gogo and anyone else: there are no antibiotic doctors writing here because they are too busy: the ccsvi doctors who write here just test the patients then send them on for operations if needed. I do have a small list of papers so if you send me your email addresses I will forward them.

This is incorrect. Dr. Sclafani most certainly does treat patients.Anecdote wrote:the ccsvi doctors who write here just test the patients then send them on for operations if needed.
