Ivermectin

[D and J in NH]

I Would like to ask those who are using Ivermectin, how to convert ml to mcg. I have been taking Ivermectin by prescription but my Drs. will no longer authorize my continuing to take it. (They don't understand why its not working. Even though I get relief from taking it, as soon as I stop the crawlies come back.) So I must try the alternative: animal ivermectin for cows (injectable) which I plan to try orally.
It comes in 50 ml and I have to take 12 micrograms for my size.
Thanks

Hi D and J, DON'T DO IT. Ivermectin is like you said, only temporary. I believe, you're being re infested by your environment. Lady Colorado can tell you about antibiotics. The salt and C diet is a good start and sugar products will have to go. You need to make a choice of where to start. Bubba can help you there. I've done the Ivermectin and and it scares me. I really try not to be where they are. WTG

D and J, I urge you to follow your doctor's advice on this. Please don't resort to taking animal Ivermectin. If you have Morgellons, it will only provide temporary relief.
Try following the treatment steps listed on this forum.

ty, william the great. i am just a dork at times, just like anyone else. d and j, when you said this ingredient, is one of the ingredients in equimax. i have tried equimax topically,so so results nothing to write home about,but never orally which is a BAD idea your dr. giving it to you is one thing, taking animal could have bad consequences if make an error. for example, a cow weighs a hell of alot more than you do, for one thing. so easy to screw up the dose could be much more concentrated then your old meds. plus this stuff is poison. insects and parasites of this disease adapt well to poisons. the simple things knock them for a loop quite effectively. some of the medicines will be on after my minor surgery to put in a groshong catheter: zithromax, can't find dosage right now, acidopholus tablets, diflocan, 100 mg, one tablet twice weekly to control yeast overgrowth(10 pills), ceftriaxone, 125 mg. in 100 ml. daily iv use for over 20 minutes, metronidazole, 125 mg. for iv use infuse 125 mg. once daily for over 30 minutes. azithromycin 250 mg. iv use once daily for over 90 minutes at least 3 hours from cefttriaxone. i will have a tunneled groshong catheter inserted for prolonged central iv infusions of antibiotics. d and j, i would strongly recommend following the treatment steps bubba has laid out, and also please do the garlic and the cumin use i have laid out. at least do the green cumin, if able to get the black, a different plant as well i also strongly recommend. check out my posts for added tools in your arsenal of topical alternatives if have stubborn lesions. using palmolive ooxy plus dish soap before the selsum blue for a shower or after the epsom salt and peroxide bath outlined in the treatment steps. i wish to welcome you both, d and j, to the boards and hope you gain useful info help, and support in here. when the opportunity arises, i will see if somehow dr. harvey can tell me if way he can give doc advice on treatment protocols, if he is able to, it kills me others have such a hard time getting the right medicines. take care and god bless, and i sincerely hope i have been of help to you both.

Hi, thank you all for replies.
And to Ladycolorado for advice.
Sounds like I should replace the Ivermectin with antibiotics.

No I have to figure out how to get a Dr. to prescribe them.
I go to a free clinic, so that may be tough to do.
Do you have to go to a Lyme disease specialist? to get them (antibiotics)??

[ladycolorado]

well, let me see what can do if get to see dr. harvey again. maybye he can recommend protocols, but i cant guarantee it. make sure you do the things i recommended about treatment in here in the meantime. my is an iv regimine to cure me . he has an oral one, although i dont think as effective. the iv treatment what he strongly recommended to me. i will say that it is very important to take the right medicines to fight this disease. talk to your dioctor , tell him i am seeing a board member doctor of the morgellons reseach foundation, see what he says. as far as lymes testing, much of it is inaccurate. igenex the best lymes testing lab in the whole world. no, i am jjust going for the gusto, getting the best treatment i can, and i wish to be cured, even if i have to use my own heart to do it. i am going to see at least if dr. harvey knows of anybody in your state to help you.feel free to private messaage me at any time, or add me to yahoo or aol chat if like. the info is on my profile. thanks. you are new to this board but will say the treatment steps WORK. god knows where id be without them. your humble servant, ladycolorado.

[ladycolorado]

thanks, bubba for the response. yes Dr. Harvey is the coolest and apparently has been studying this disease a long time. if he says can cure me i know it is so. i cried when he told me that...........as so many of us are fed misinformation .........and so many just don't have a clue. like the reporters article (a real OLD one )that dealt with mainly the skin, telling us things to help on his post, but now folks, you can see with what have to do to be cured.......how really physically ill we are. there IS proof of physical symptoms. it screams in neon. the media needs to stop regurgitating the same propaganda, and open its eyes to new information. i hope somehow Dr. Harvey could give me a list of docs, or share treatment protocols with the good doctors trying to help. if he can. he is Harvey busy. ill keep you guys posted on all going on as you are my family now.

You can get most of the medications she mentioned in "oral" form by clicking on the links at the bottom of each medication description link. Oral is not as quick to work as IV, but they will help...it will just take longer. Unfortunately, they will cost some money. If you want to print them out and take them to the free clinic and tell them you'd like to try some of them, it might work. You can tell them "a friend" of yours has the same problem and these meds are helping her.

In my own experience in taking prescription Ivermectin, it seemed to work for a while and then I would have to ask the doc to increase my dosage. Eventually, I was taking lots of pills to try to keep this disease at bay. After a while, it stopped helping altogether.

Medications meant for injection should not be taken orally. You are trying to convert ml (a liquid) into mcg (a solid). This is not recommended. At times we can do things that we may not normally do out of desperation. I know that I have done some strange things in the beginning to try to get rid of this mess (some of you who know me are probably smiling right now...I did some silly things). I want to gently urge you to try to find an alternative to the Ivermectin. If you need some one-on-one guidance, you can send me a private message any time.

We are all in this fight with you. At times we can feel alone and afraid. If you get that way, please let us know. We will come to your "rescue" with support, encouragement, and maybe even a few ideas to try to help you.

Hang in there with us!
Take care!!

thanks bubba for backing me up on my knowledge that have to take the RIGHT medicines! question for you, bubba, IS THERE GENERICS OF THESE DRUGS? IN THE US WALMART IS CHARGING 4 BUCKS FOR ALL GENERIC PRESRIPTIONS. thanks, bubba

[ladycolorado]

well most likely not............but it never hurts to try. if there is generics could save you a bundle . my doc has contract pharmacy said i can pay wholesale since we have no insurance. t'aint cheap mgee! :P

Bubba
Thank you so much.
I will go to the clinic to see if we can get prescription for any or all of these.
We are artists /crafts people and have no insurance so that will matter.
I will write soon to speak personally. If I can figure out how.

Our cats are suffering too. My oldest is a sweet grey tabby who is having these things bite him on the face and ears. It pains me so to see it and I am trying to help him. Any suggestions ?

Thank you Ladycolorado too for your kind words.
