The acetyl carnitine is to prevent damage from the drugs.
It is not for the disease process itself.

The NAC will help with breathing, and if it is going to do so, should start quickly. The antibiotics will be weeks and weeks to work. The side effects are more severe and clear cut than with supplements.

All you can do is minimize their risks.

Everyone responds differently, as well.

I'm willing to take the supplements, to at least "cushion " the toxins.
I will continue to research on these antibiotics and if you happen to stumble any information in the process of your research of neuropathy, please keep me in mind. You dig information that I would never have found it on my own. I could not stay long on the computer due to my neck and dizziness.

Thank you very much.
