essential oil protocols for lyme

hi everyone, I have not been on here for a while still fighting my own battle with lyme.

I am doing better than I have done I would say I am about 60 % better. It has been a long war. I am still fighting. I can do house chores now, go shopping for short periods, and I can ride my horses now about every 2 or 3 days. I am so happy I can do this much cause I thought I would never ride again back in 2012. my horses and my cats are such a joy to me. My husband has been wonderful and a blessing.

I have decent days and bad days. I could not tolerate antibiotics so I went the alternative route. I took IV food grade hydrogen peroxide that I had to do myself since I am a RN and I needed to save money. I would not recommend this to non healthcare professionals. I took that for 11/2 year along with lots of supplements. Then I moved to north carolina from Tn in july 2015, where I am learning more about alternative and homeopathic treatment. I am now on IV ozone, biweekly along with getting it in my nose and ears. I learned I had a mycotoxin in my sinus or a fungal colony, and I have a fungus in my ears. I had to treat candida and all that stuff. I have the MTHFR gene mutation, Hashimonto's disease, leaky gut, degenerative spine, tinnitus, neuropathy, and magnesium deficiency and depression of course. I recently learned I have mycoplasma pneumonaie. I was not happy to learn this. We thought I had babesia, but I don't.

I just started about 1 month ago on an essential oil protocol with young living oils thieves and immunopower that I rotate every 14 days. I take it orally. I also use other oils to help with detoxxing, like peppermint, ginger, lemon, grapefruit, and others. I have found that this has really helped me, esp my lyme symptoms, particularly my breathing. I was staying congested all the time, and coughing. That has really gotten better, and I can breathe so much better now.

I had to research this essential oil protocol before I decided to try it.

I was wanting to know if anyone else has had success taking these kind of essential oils or others? J

Looking at your list of conditions and the symptoms involved, I'd say we've got a lot in common. Fun stuff, huh?

Anyway, yes, I've had strong reactions to a number of essential oils - oregano, frankincense, doTerra's OnGuard.

I've no doubt they can and have helped a lot of people on their healing journey, under the right circumstances, both from the perspective of killing the buggers off as well as helping to flush them out, and even help your body cope - certain oils are good for relaxation, pain relief, so I've heard.

Good ones are, again, oregano and frankincense, thyme, thieves, and things like lavender, lemon, peppermint for support - the lavender would probably go in a diffuser.

Really though, pretty much all the essential oils could be beneficial in some way.

Some people use them internally, I tried this, but wouldn't recommend it. It may be slightly more effective, but topically does the job. The tops of the feet are best, I've been told. It might help to do some dry skin brushing around there to open up the pores a bit.

But, as you probably know, no one thing can do it for us, not yet anyway. I said, under the right circumstances, right? The trick is finding the right time/way to apply these things.

I've had a lot of failure with certain products over the past couple years. I always blamed them and the manufacturers for it, when, in reality, at least in part, it was just me and the bugs.

Most of this stuff probably can knock back our infections and whatnot quite a bit, if only the environment was right.

Oh well.

Best wishes, dealing with it all.
