This may be why Mepron, Alinia and Artesmesia never did anything for me - or not enough...<BR/><BR/>MMS is really what wiped out the symptoms that I really felt were from Babesia. Now its hard to really know what causes what with poor testing. BUT as you and I both know - we get pretty darn good at knowing what is going on in our bodies after this lengthy ride......<BR/><BR/>If folks wish to try Alinia - they can get their Dr. to order it for you for FREE. He just needs to fill out a form stating insurance wont cover the cost. Alinia seemed to work fast ad well for my Drs. patients and they exp. quick symptom resuloution but I suspect they didnt have WA-1....b/c it did nothing for me.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15752935975300595285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72382737862000947.post-85296123627214012892009-02-05T11:15:00.000-07:002009-02-05T11:15:00.000-07:00Monkey Girl,Yeah, I wish I had some better news ab...Monkey Girl,<BR/><BR/>Yeah, I wish I had some better news about this one. I know some docs try other, harsher drugs for it, with mixed success. It seems to me that homeopathy might be a good option for this one, but of course the problem is finding someone who can administer it properly. I am not sure myself whether to continue on artemisia. I have been a bit more grouchy lately and it may be related to die-off, but I doubt that the effect has been profound. At the doses I am taking, artemisia costs me over 300$ a month. I'm really contemplating trying something else. If the mora and enula, or MMS work for me (they might be next), I'll let ya know! Thanks for your comments and I hope you feel better soon! :)<BR/><BR/>ConnieConnie Strasheimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16717029511098232885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72382737862000947.post-22630547666522139192009-02-05T10:14:00.000-07:002009-02-05T10:14:00.000-07:00Arg.

I haven't retested yet, however, I've a pretty fair idea that we didn't kick it. My fatigue is unbelievable.monkey girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04234810881929268484noreply@blogger.com
