Just an update. Yesterday I added Diethylcarbamazine (DEC) 100 mg bid and have been using Stabilized Oxygen by Aerobic Life (10 drops tid) for 4 days. I plan to continue both long term as these are the closest things I've heard to a cure.
Im on follow up cycle #2 of Mebendazole 100mg bid which will last 5-14 days. This is about 14 days after the former cycle. There is no flank pain when on Mebendazole which is a big clue in itself. Albendazole scares me and I haven't heard it cure anyone. Mebendazole with a fatty meal will get absorbed into the bloodstream without the serious side effects.
I generally prefer not to combine antihelmintics with the exception of Tinidazole and DEC which technically operate differently but may be considered by some as such.
I prefer multiple cycles of the same antihelmintic before moving on to the next. That said I did one too many cycles of Ivermectin. No serious consequences but I found my tremors were due to the Ivermectin accumulation building up in my system.
I was going to attempt a 30 day course of Ivermectin but ceased taking it on 27FEB. Maybe had I done this from the get go I could have succeeded but after multiple cycles ending the use of Ivermectin ended the tremors and allowed me to lower the dose and frequency of Kratom with no further nervous issues.
If you use Ivermectin for any length of time you may wish to pay careful attention to neuro side effects as they will become evident at normal doses well before any permanent damage can occur. I don't regret use but my body signaled it was time to stop and I listen for the cues and follow my instincts.
I am not afraid to use it again in the far future but the break will be extended for a while and until I absolutely feel its needed again, but no large dosing extended uses will be repeated. I doubt the high dosing is necessary and it will either work or not after four decreasing cycles.
As long as I remain on Fluconazole 400mg I don't seem to have any major symptoms of anything for the last few weeks minus the lung pain which is now minimal and sporadic rather than intermittent to constant thanks to a friends recommendation of Biaxin.
I am getting ready to order a 6 month supply of Fluconazole as I've located it for under 40 cents per pill compared to $2.80 and up locally.
My supplier cant seem to accept conventional methods of payment offering standard protection but I haven't had problems with the supplier who actually shipped the last order and then found out he wasn't going to be able to bill my Visa card. But I had given him good reason to trust me in the past so he wasn't worried. I paid with Western Union upon receiving it one month later and have more trust for the gentleman I am dealing with but would like to complete my next order before recommending him to anyone.
I began Biaxin on the same day I added Augmentin, 17FEB, major improvement in lungs but sometimes I feel a little backsliding for just a tad. If I feel like I need a third dose, I take it, which has only been twice so far.
I am aware of the minor interaction of Fluconazole increasing the serum concentration of Biaxin. I seem to tolerate this well. I am not certain how long I will need it but I am planning to order a 3 month supply and awaiting a price quote to compare with ADC.
Im on day 5 of 7-14 days planned for Tinidazole 500 mg bid and tolerating it much better than day 1 which is always the toughest for me. I am eating healthy but I will drop out of ketosis with the diet change adding brown rice but have heard this to be most helpful. Daily NORI (Seaweed) has replaced my Nascent Iodine supplementation.
I have used Himalayan salt for years and will continue. I often eat Avocado for breakfast with a little salt. I have added back fruit for lunch as well as completed a 3 day pineapple fast with no issues and have a good variety of tree ripened fruit available here. You haven't had pineapple until you've had tropical locally grown.
I am ozonizing all of the water I drink (adding lemon juice) using a simple unit purchased on Amazon that can do water and air simultaneously as well as place negative ions in the air.
I have ordered the Kleen Free Enzymes and plan to use it above and below the ceiling tile. Naturally I will dilute and patch test it for topical use on a thick skinned area (foot), and see if it makes a visible difference by using the UV light as a guide.
I don't know why I feel as if there will be a consequence to using all of these antibiotics so I've ordered Bravo Probiotics for when I come off of the antibiotics. These are suppositories which is likely the most effective way to deliver probiotics and get them to flourish. Bravo provides 42 probiotic strains but 12 suppositories cost me $200. ['ve heard amazing things about this product but it is for restoration not maintenance during antibiotic use.
I believe there is a California co-op that may offer it cheaper but in powder form which may not survive the shipping to here and I seemed to have misplaced the information on them anyway.
I take probiotics currently with meals and eat raw sauerkraut near daily. The alopecia has slowed significantly and there have been no new skin issues. There is however a minor irritation in the eyes beginning again which is very strange for being on such a high dose of Augmentin. It always presents unilaterally from left to right. A couple drops of colloidal silver applied directly seem to help (do not do this with ionic silver).
What has got me a little concerned is a recent increase in the number of phorid flies attempting and succeeding at entering the home. Its not at infestation levels but higher than what would be usual. Insects seem to be seasonal They don't take fly paper bait, nor seem to be phased by Raid house and garden.
Naturally I am the only one they bite but they are only active in the day. They've only bitten me twice and it doesn't leave a mark but I cover it with generous amounts of antibiotic cream to play it safe.
If anyone knows how to discourage these creatures I am all ears as they are fast and evasive. They don't behave like other flies with exception to congregating around the kitchen trash can which has to be emptied daily.
And no they are not coming out of my skin, they are flying in through the window screen. I have to look for a micro screen for the windows as closing them will only encourage mold growth.
Far IR sauna has been amazing at clearing up much of the once strange skin ejections. The skin looks great with minor exception under UV light. The toes and soles of feet glow radioactively. Palms slightly, as well as hair follicles around beard and mustache and a portion of the scalp. Oddly so does the back of the mouth but only in the soft palate to uvula and is confined to the interior of the tonsils. How strangely definitive. The UV light will be key to testing all skin remedies. The florescence likely implicates a fungus but is no guarantee.
I am very surprised Itraconazole had so little effect the last (and only second) time I used it. I honestly cant afford any of the echinocandins so I am stuck with Fluconazole and natural remedies. Several natural remedies to test are on order while heavily diluted tea tree oil gargle is on deck for testing.
I am reluctant to shave my scalp but confident that I will find a remedy without having to resort to this.
I stay in the sauna longer and don't feel anything odd coming out of the skin like grains and such these days.
Lastly there is minor joint pain in the right inner knee which was slow to arrive and even slower to depart.
I don't really like to announce improvements as it seems as soon as I do, regression has followed in the past, but I am not at all superstitious. So I am going to take BlueLyme's advice in envisioning myself as healed.
