Hi everybody,
I'm Poosh. I have had CFSi for the past 20 years. I've tested positive for antibodies to mycoplasma pneumoniae, and Q Fever phase II. I'm also positive for Epstein Barr, Herpes Virus 6, and CMV.
So far no antibodies have been detected for Chlamydia, but I suspect tht sooner or later they might show up.
Ihave no idea what the Stratton/Wheldon protocol is, but, I sure would like to learn and is the protocol appropriate for me?
My doctor started me on Doxycycline twice a day, but I haven't begun yet because I'm being tested for Lyme next week.
I'm very concerned about how to take Doxy in relation to probiotics. Doxy first, then probiotics? And the time inervals beween. Full stomach, empty stomach? Any other antibioticsi at the same time?
Thanks! Poosh

Take probiotics at least
Take probiotics at least two hours away from antibioticsi. Longer, if possible.
Read the 'Getting Started' section.
Take doxyi without food if you tolerate it well, otherwise take it with food and don't worry about the directions on the bottle.
