Hi BPW -

I feel pretty certain that I probably got this in San Fran. I was there for such a long time (May 06), involved in so many things! I can't point to a particular bug bite or anything, though I was outside a lot!

Hope you all are hanging in there!

I feel like I am getting better all the sudden, maybe the Zithromycin is starting to work. We'll see if it lasts, but thankfully, my symptoms are way down!!! Yeah!!!

I have tried something new. You guys probably already know about it, but I think it may be part of what's helping. I ordered Grapefruit Seed Extract from a company called Nutribiotic. (No affiliation) It's made to take internally, but I was afraid it might interfere with the antibiotic. I have had a lot of trouble with Morgs on my hands and lower arms, so I started putting one drop under each fingernail every night before bed & rubbing it into the nail bed and fingers thoroughly. My hands are much better. Also, I only have one big active lesion right now, but started putting it on there with DSP & a bandaid every a.m. & p.m., it is also looking better. I bought their skin cleanser and first aid spray as well. They are both helpful. They call the active portion "citricidal" so I figured, if it's citrus, I'll try it.

Maybe I'm the last one in the message board to try this, but in case you haven't maybe it would help the symptoms.

Blessings,
