Seriouslyscared Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) I'm trying anything that might bring the candida and bacterial overgrowths under control. After my disastrous attempt at using Lugol's Iodine, I thought I'd post here before I try this to ask whether anybody else has tried Kib500? It's a relatively new treatment that apparently boosts your own innate immune system. It's not like an antibiotic or even herbal antimicrobial. It's apparently given real relief to some people with chronic fatigue who suspect they have potentially up to dozens of undetected chronic infections. There are however some reports of it making you feel worse before you feel better, presumably due to die off. Being considerably physically weaker after I believe the iodine released additional toxins (possibly heavy metals) into my bloodstream (I believe I may have a potentially really high toxic load), on top of the candida and bacterial overgrowth, and with exhausted detoxification pathways, this hit me hard so I'm wary of trying anything that might hit me again, and yet I don't want to keep getting worse like this. I just wondered therefore has anyone else any experience of this? Did it give you die off? Did it effect your withdrawal? https://www.kib.uk.com/about-kib-500 Edited August 7, 2017 by ChessieCat added correct link Dec 98; Paroxetine 20mg, quickly increased to 40mg for mild situational teenage depression which I didn't even go for. Spring 99; Paroxetine reduced back to 20mg over four weeks after mild depression passes. Autumn 99; Paroxetine reduced down to 14mg, slowly, as initial 10mg reduction was far too much. Start of 2000; Paroxetine increased back up to 40mg after a 'relapse' and the most severe depression imaginable. No life. Late 2012 to early 2013, Paroxetine reduced from a bit above 40mg (perhaps close to 50mg) back down to 40mg. October 2015; tapered off Paroxetine by 5ml/10mg every 2 weeks after finally had enough of years of constant instability. I never did 'get better' as the doctors said to wait for. Never had remotely normal adult life, cared for full time at family home. Start of August 2016; tried reinstituting Paroxetine at 1mg for 4 days, disaster; shopping list of physical symptoms develop. Also taken Proton Pump Inhibitors on and off since early 2003, continuously since 2013 for severe upper GI issues Took Cyclizine 50mg up to 3x daily since 2013 for crippling nausea from severe GI issues, stopped at start of August 2016. Propranolol 10mg on occasion since May 2016 for extreme stress/racing heart, stopped at start of September 2016 Omega 3, Magnesium, Zinc, stopped Vitamins B complex, C, D3, multivitamin, probiotic, garlic, digestive enzymes
Moderator brassmonkey Posted August 7, 2017 Moderator Posted August 7, 2017 Kib500 is essentially an antibiotic if all the accounts are true. There is NO supporting research from a reputable site as to it's effectiveness. All the sites returned on several searches are involved in selling the product and not one can substantiate any of the claims that they make. If it does work as an antibiotic then it may be useful in replacing prescription ones for people who are sensitive to them. Other than that I do not see it as being of any use to people in ADWD. 20 years on Paxil starting at 20mg and working up to 40mg. Sept 2011 started 10% every 6 weeks taper (2.5% every week for 4 weeks then hold for 2 additional weeks), currently at 7.9mg. Oct 2011 CTed 15oz vodka a night, to only drinking 2 beers most nights, totally sober Feb 2013. Since I wrote this I have continued to decrease my dose by 10% every 6 weeks (2.5% every week for 4 weeks and then hold for an additional 2 weeks). I added in an extra 6 week hold when I hit 10mg to let things settle out even more. When I hit 3mgpw it became hard to split the drop into 4 parts so I switched to dropping 1mgpw (pill weight) every week for 3 weeks and then holding for another 3 weeks. The 3 + 3 schedule turned out to be too harsh so I cut back to dropping 1mgpw every 4 weeks which is working better. Final Dose 0.016mg. Current dose 0.000mg 04-15-2017 "It's also important not to become angry, no matter how difficult life is, because you can loose all hope if you can't laugh at yourself and at life in general."
