I'm finding it hard to take the Cholestrymine and all this other stuff!
I'm supposed to take a tablespoon 3-4x a day but only an hour before or two hours after a meal. If I take it an hour before breakfast, lets say 7am, it interferes with my birth control pill (even if I wait an hour to take the bc pill). So, now I eat at 7:30-8, then I wait until 10a to take it, then eat lunch at noon, take it at 2 pm, then dinner at 7 pm, then I take it at 9 pm. That's only 3 tablespoons. I don't know where I'd fit in a 4th... I also need to drink a lot of electolytes cuz of gene mutations, but I'm worried that they are just being bound up...
I'm also taking Serrapeptase (to help with biofilm) which is supposed to be on an empty stomach, but I can't find a spot in the schedule, so I usually take it in the middle of the night (3 am) when I wake up for a trip to the bathroom. I was trying to take biocidin, but that too is supposed to be on an empty stomach, so its out for now.
I was just diagnosed in Oct. 2015 (after two years of he**). LLMD said my body is doing a great job (he liked my IgG/IgE numbers) one month into Doxycycline. He added the DesBios vials (every 3 days - another thing to remember)...I can't believe I'm going to have to do this daily and somewhat indefinitely...I've cancelled any plans for Thanksgiving and Christmas because I really need to stick to home because of my gluten free/dairy free/whole food issues, the truck load of vitamins I take, all the timed pill popping, and tub detoxing with all of the supplies littering the bathroom floor...Husband thinks I'm crazy...Lyme has taken over my schedule!!!
Any suggestions on organizing/dosing? thx in advance~
