Tinii [16] had been easy on my taste buds and my stomach so that part of the pulse is easier on me.

I've tried both, and to me they both taste the same... But then I have a heavy Cpni [10] infection in all areas of my head, including my tongue, so it may be different for you.

Michele, How is your experience with Doxyi [7]?   I have now tried both US generic capsules and US generic Tablets.  I have been hoping that after a year of passing it into my gut that any gut lining CPni [10] may be put out to pasture.  I would like to work toward the ability that many here report, such as just take it with a large empty glass of water or a cracker on an empty stomach and no nausea, fear of vomitting in public etc that constantly grabs me when I very seldom catch myself in need of taking it empty stomached.

The tablets seem better by a small amount even with full meal.    And last evening I was away most of the day with some volunteer work.   We moved the new minister into his parsonage  and with an hour to spare I dashed home and took the full 200 doxy and 300Roxi  that I have been doing all at once for the past week as an experiment for myself.  I'll not go there about what I am finding in other ways  will talk here to Stomach response on very empty stomach with just an oat cake ( love those oat cakes by the way, learned to love them in the UK 20 years ago)  By the time I  had driven back to a scheduled meeting, nausea began to rear its now also slightly pain provoking head.   A strong smell of crayons in the humid closed up room contributed to nausea,  I kept quiet and still hoping that an urgent egress would not be forthcoming.    I had about 8 oz of water available and I finished it down, and after about an hour from taking the meds nausea and pain did as they do when the doxy goes into the duodenum,  instantly disappeared.   I do have a bottle of flagyli [1] available to me.  I have not tried even one.   

I do have a heavy CPn infection,  porphoria is ever present for me.   Currently I have moved to a 6 week course of nightly Cholestyramine in the  late evening last thing after everything else has had a chance to move into and along in the small intestine.   I am priming with a modest piece of cheese, waiting about 15-20 minutes, taking the cholestyramine 1 packet with an extra glass of water, sitting for a time of fquiet relaxation then going to sleep.   The results of this have been much improved when I check that wonderful reactions and remedies list, I am having very few X's for which I am thankful and feeling alert, in check with my emotions, and energy to move all in this time of heat with no airconditioning presently.

I will likely try the Flagyl and do my course of Clari, but for now stable is good and anything I can do to avert Nausea and abd pain resulting form the CAP is high on my list of must does.  I applaud those who find the ingestion of these substances Doxy and Flagyl with some envy.

JMHO, Louise

Lori,

You're tough and you're making it happen.  Kim's using 

Chlorella this time around, while to early to tell, she's doing well in terms of side effects.  I think this stuff is helping, but again, it's too early too tell.

Keep it going girl, you're beating it.

Ken
