starting AP or LDN after remission?

[Guest guest]

Just wondering if anyone has ever started AP or LDN after achieving

remission through the traditional drugs? Do you still experience the

Herx? Any info about your experience would be great.

Thanks! --Celia <><

It is the A/P that will get you into remission and most of us, who have achieved

remission, stay on a low dose maintenance of Minocin 100mg MWF once a day. 

Some still do twice a day. Our choice, of course.  These mycoplasmas can

reinfect at any time.  They are all over the place and since we were once so

succeptible to infection, it is best not to let them get a stronghold, again. 

I have never been on LDN.  I once asked my Infectious disease doc about it and

he said that, in my case, it was not necessary because I was responding so well

on antibiotics alone.  He said that LDN in low dose is used for drug overdose

reversal.  For some people with certain diseases it seems to work just fine and

it is what they need.  I have taken enough drugs and don't need to add any

more to my list, if I don't have to.  I also have diabetes and hypertension so

I take meds for that.  There was a time when both of those diseases were, for

me very

unmanageable.  I was on injections.   But since I have achieved remission,

they are very easily controlled and I no longer have to inject the insulin.  I

am on a low dose of Benicar which seems to boost the effect of the minocin. 

That is part of the MP.  Take care, Dolores
