Simultaneous antibiotic and homeopathic treatment for Lyme

Neal Gray,

First of all, WELCOME to the forum! We would encourage you to take a look at the thread on the left hand side of your screen, at the top of the thread column entitled "New to Lyme?.... Start Here." It has a lot of good information that is useful to know for anyone that has this illness. I am sorry that you or a loved one is ill, but I am glad that you found us! We would encourage you to feel at home and to participate.

My daughter first started out with conventional ABX alone. We later added in some herbals which seemed to help a lot. She got to the point of no symptoms, and we then ended the treatments a few months later. She went on to relapse a few months later. We were forced to resort to another altogether different type of treatment, which ended her relapse. She has been healthy to this day- 3 years later.

You would have to check for specific compatibility, but yes, herbals and ABX are usually compatible and are usually more effective than ABX alone- from what I am hearing. I don't think that homeopathics would conflict with anything.

Lyme nosodes, Ledum, Samento, Gluthianone. I find these from researching Lyme and homeopathic treatment.

It seems like many LLMDS use a combination of both. I'm on abx. as well as GSE and Glutathione as well as other supplements to help w/ inflammation, liver support, and detoxing. All were prescribed by my LLMD.

Yes, we should distinguish between homeopathic and herbal. They are two completely different healing modalities. Herbs work on a biochemistry level to produce treatment, but homeopathy works on a quantum physics/energy level to produce treatment.

Edited to add:

I forgot to answer the question...  Yes, I'm taking abx (Flagyl, and right now I'm also on Cipro), and herbs (Andrographis, Stinging Nettle Leaf, Yucca Root), and also I use homeopathy for symptom management (often, Arnica, Hypericum, Causticum, and also sometimes Cocculus, Ruta, Aurum Ars., Nux V., etc.).  I also take a number of nutritional supplements, digestive enzymes and probiotics.
