Jim’s Story- Chlamydia Pneumoniae and Chronic Fatigue/Fibromyalgia

The Tunnel of Illness

I want to update my story on the front end so readers know even before reading the "agony post" how much benefit I've gotten from the treatment. It is August 26th, 2006. Coming up on two years I've been on the Combined Antibiotic Protocol (CAPi) for Chlamydia pneumoniae (Cpni). A recent forum poster asked if anyone with CFSi has improved on the CAP. My response:

Damned right I'm getting better!When I started the CAP I was in a 2 year slide after 25 years of CFS, then added FMSi. For many years I'd struggled and somehow maintained a semblance of a life. Then over 2 years my pain, brain fog, restricted functioning, etc. slid to a point where I had to stop traveling and could for the first time see the possibility that I would become bedridden eventually.

Sore throat, sinus yeast

Well, I'm on Doxyi, Biaxin and Tindamax and am still getting a sore throat.  Also on low dose of Diflucan.  I have had yeast in my right sinus cavity for years.  Trying to get back on Amphotericin B nasal wash again.  Maybe that will help.  Also have a terrible dry cough for the last 6 mos.  I read that it can be a sign of mycoplasma.  Just had lab tests done so I'm interested in the results.  Guess I'll up my Vita C again to 7 grams a day.  Hate that powder stuff.  I'm just so afraid that I'll get a mutated infection that they can't treat.  I've been on continuous antibioticsi for 20 years now but only on this protocol since Oct 2008.  Sure hope I turn the corner soon.  Anyone have any ideas.  I take all the supplementsi, etc. too.

Is the lab serologic blood testing for C. pneumonia expensive in case my Medicare or TennCare (state) doesn’t cover it?

Will Medicare and TennCare (state) cover any of the three antibiotics used in Stratton's protocol in eradicating C. pneumoniae?

    Bood test shows some improvements

    I  just received my lab work in the mail and have some small improvements.

    One year ago: vitamin D3 level was 32. Now it has gone up to 68

                            ferriten level was 13. Now is 27

     

    It doesn't seem like much but at least it is going in the right direction. Any improvement is worth posting!

    Tindamax use

    Well, here I am again!  I just did a 10 day pulse with Tindamax taking 2 a day.  I was getting really sick and decided to start on it and it made me feel much better.  No side effects except yeast .  Much better than Flagyli.  Well, my question is, I finished the 10 days last Monday and now I am sick again.  How long can you take the Tindamax with all the other stuff I'm on?  I don't watch my body to get used to the Tindamax.

    Making some good progress :)

    2010 March - April Update

    Pulse date: Mar. 29th - Apr. 2nd.

    I finally did my first 5 day tinidazole pulse since July 2009.

    But first a refresher with a bit of my pulse history follows:

    Biofilm Testing

    I picked up a comment in another post (by K23la) regarding Biofilm Testing and it perked my interest.  I 'm not sure what advantage it would be to know specifically what pathogens are hiding in the biofilms we have  as the removal process is, I believe, the same. Perhaps some of the more scientifically-minded  here may have input.   

    The test  is available at Fry Labs in Arizona and your own prescribing doctor can order it (the test kit will then be sent free).  If you order it yourself, the test kit is $15.00.

    The cost of  the Fluorescent DNA Stain is $350.00.   All information is available at http://www.frylabs.com
