Glad you got your diagnosis.

Keep us posted on your recovery process!

Thanks AG.

Traveler - Thanks. Unfortunately the LLMD I was seeing has retired. I was incredibly fortunate to get in and get diagnosed before he did - without which I suspect I really might have struggled and certainly wouldnt have had the support of my GP both from the point of view of prescribing antibiotics and monitoring LFT's etc. I have been referred to another but have to wait until the end of Feb. Its Ok - this takes me to the end of the 3 months 200 mg bid doxy initially prescribed. I'll be glad to get of the doxy, along with its nausiating feeling and photosensitivity. I think the next course is then amoxi 500mg bd, azithro 500mg bd and tinizole 500mg bd for another 3 months.

On detoxing I have been dry skin brushing and having plenty of baths. I hadnt incorporated epsum salts because I was concerned about Mg interacting with doxy, but I just worked out this is an absorption issue in the stomach so no probs I guess. I couldnt find any guidelines for a quantity (g) of epsom salts to be using per average sized bath though. Any ideas?

Lemon water is another thing I can try as well right? I am taking some supplements and milk thistle for liver support (350mg/d)

Any other easy to achieve suggestions?

Ta, M

When you say 2 cups do you mean approx 1/2 KG?

Trav,

Yeah its roughly equivilent so 1/2 L = 1/2 Kg. Boy, you guys must get through the stuff! How often do you have a ES bath?

Hi,

I continue my investigations on detox baths and have ordered a bulk bag of epsom salts for £25 - works out at about 50p a bath. Hydrogen peroxide is another matter entirely. The cheapest I can find H202 is approx £5/l or £5 a bath (remember im a lymie or pom if your Australian). This is really expensive. My question is, is it worth it?
Thanks, Hugh
