Hi, Jay:
The AP I have described was as close to what I did as possible, but I might modify it slightly in retrospect:
1) I would take colloidal silver 2oz (10-20 ppM) 3X day before meals.
2) Start tetracycline immediately after the 11 days of Cipro.
3) Make the times between the hard 11 days more variable--up to 2 months taking tetracycline.
4) Do the Flagyl early; it can replace tetracycline if necessary and they can be used concurrently. I honestly believe that everyone with AS should do a couple of cycles of Flagyl.
5) Take a break from the tetracycline for a week or two and replenish gut flora, fast, and cleanse with oregano oil.
It is a personal thing, mostly, that requires some tweaking and experimentation, but we make our own decisions as to when to begin what: We "listen" to our bodies and act, now that we know the mechanism of this disease.
I certainly will let You know about our itinerary.
HEALTH,
John
