flagyl question

I've recently been prescribed it for every 5-7 days... I guess for the pulse thing.

I'm kinda scared. I will reduce my doxy during this time from 400 to 200...And then go back to 400mgs. I am also on Biaxin.

I may not be able to start it until I can afford it.

Advice? any successes?

I have been using for 2 weeks every 3 weeks and I think it helped joint pains for me as it does treat the cysts. It tastes horrible (generic not sure if there are other less horrible tasting pills) so I learned to keep it away from my other pills and when I take it a chase it with orange juice or some flavored drink. Typically I feel great for a couple of days on it, then not as great (nausea, sweats, fatigue, some joint pains)- so taking it for shorter courses like you are doing may be good- how often are you taking this for? I have done 3 cycles. My LLMD suggested that we keep pulsing it in until no herx reaction on it. The alcohol intolerance is real- I forgot I was on it and had a little beer at Superbowl and was nauseated all night......good luck

K. Thanks for all the GREAT advice. I will try it when I can. All these medications are getting expensive.
