Mycoplasma
Hi Jen,
I found the same research myself recently. Very interesting stuff indeed. My mom is actually just finishing up doing the Mycoplasma treatment for Interstitial Cystitis. It appears she's been helped tremendously, though she is not feeling so great, because she had Candida prior to going on the antibiotics, and though the doctor gave her Diflucan in conjunction, and later added some super-strong Pro-biotics (400 billion organisms per pill) it doesn't seem to have done enough.
I'm contemplating trying to treat the Mycoplasma as well, but the doctor I'm seeing who is willing to do it, I'm not sure the lab he's sending specimens to is going to be able to do it right. I'm supposed to see an infectious disease specialist, who is said to have been able to successfully culture bacteria from the stomach and bladder (quite a feat I guess) next month so maybe I'll wait till then. Maybe not.
How are you feeling at this point in your treatment? I'd love to know!
Also, to the person who was talking about hormones, I'd love to hear more & find out how exactly you fixed the hormone problem, how do you know you're at the right levels if the blood tests came up innacurate? I'm having the same problem. My blood tests came back okay a few months ago, but I KNEW I was having problems (adrenal burnout and out of whack sex hormones) so I started taking DHEA and it helped soooo much, at least with the Adrenal burnout symptoms...
Thanks everyone for sharing what is working for them!
