Thanks for replying, Jeanne. There is quite a lot of information on this site and I am trying to make sense of it all. There are so many people doing different types of medicines and therapies. If I do find a doctor who knows more about cpn, I am not sure what to request for treatment. Do you have any suggestions as a starting point? Is there something I can do first before trying to initiate a CAP?

There are defintely others with more experience than me on this site, but I would start with NAC at 600 mg per day, then 600 mg twice a day then 1200 mg twice a day. Increase it as you can tolerate it. I would also start with 1000 iu per day of Vitamin D.Then I would approach your local doctor with a copy of the Wheldon protocol and this site. If he or she is open-minded you should get a good response. Alternatively, you could ask for recommendations from other members on this site via PM.
Started CAP for Cpn on 11/14/10 - Per my doctor, paused Abx 5/18/13 - NAC, B-complex, Vit D3 (50,000/week), Niacin (100 mg/BID). Started Buhner protocal (2nd edition) on 8/30/16. Currently using a blend of Buhner's Cpn and Mycoplasma protocols
You definitely have
You definitely have active/chronic CPN.... mostly like your doctors are not familiar with the repercussions of, or the 3 life phases of CPN, how it goes cryptic and can cause many illnesses.Another member here (thanks Louise) recently posted this ( it appears her lab may have slightly different reference ranges):
Many doctors are stubborn and insist it can't/isn't causing your health problems and get hung up on that whole "IgG" issue which with CPN isn't necessarily true. This is an interesting read: http://cpnhelp.org/how_chlamydia_pneumoniae Perhaps someone may private message you with a doctor in your area. Keep reading, you've come to the right place.
