2. Any time I was over 100.
3. XClair or BioFine
4. I went downhill from the first week on. I was not able to eat from October 12th to January 29th. Some are differrent, but that was my experience.
Also, I took my nausea meds as a precautionary measure and extras if I needed. I found this really helped.
Hope this helps,
