Yes - people heal from chronic lyme.

I know or my husband knows of at least 5 success stories of people in my neck of the woods.

In addition there are many forum members...in fact we have a thread on success stories...

Yes... watch under our skin 2. If she did it we can too. The only thing is that the treatment has to be aggressive and perfect.... take in consideration that the U2 girl who was on treatment only with herbs was better but not 100%. The other one who was looking like a zombie made a complete recovery after months on IV. Side note. Nobody can say for sure that the bacteria will always be in your body... I find hard to believe it. The difference here is how strong and accurate your treatment is... it's a bacteria and like all other bacteriasick it can be totally killed.

Also the ranger - I think it took him 5 years though?

There's the young girl who can't walk...she healed, too.

People do heal completely but the stories are few and far between. Its good to be optimistic and all but it seems most live in some level of a diminished state to where they were pre-lyme. Sad but true.

There is a lot of really bad information distributed on internet message boards and forums. So much so..... claiming it coincidental is difficult. I often wonder how many have died from the advice of people who never had Lyme to begin with.

Yes of course. Look at what Dr. J says who treats treatment resistant extremely complicated child cases. He himself says that they are all fixable and not getting full remission is extremely rare.

I agree that some people seem to recover, but it seems few and far between... as years later, they frequently tend to relapse.

Well it is a relapsing organism. I'm glad though, that novel persister drugs are being studied. Because in the future we may have a way of fully eradicating the remaining dormant forms.

Dr. J is awesome, going to see him soon. He does a lot of IVIG for children, works for their fragile immune systems.

Yolanda Hadid just mentioned in the last few days that she is part of a trial - must be 60 days because she said she is on day 12 and says she is feeling strangely good. She mentions she's at about 90% right now. No mention of what this trial is, but I'm wondering if it is a persister drug. Looking forward to hearing what it is...

Moderator Traveler healed after 40 years of having lyme.

Remember that there is going to be a bias toward those who are struggling more on the internet post. People who are well are busy living their lives and tend not to post any longer.

I am glad there are some who are doing great and willing to take the time and pull the rest of u through.

Yes they do. I think they can be stronger if they ask themselves why they got sick in the first place.

I know 2 who used bvt and h202...they are not the same and need to sting but i would rather be in bees 1x a week than abx for life ...will use any and all i wonder if yolanda is doing curza 99 trial?

and then there are tons of people who are treated with antibiotics who are fine.

So jealous of you birthday hes my dream doctor. Hehe

I know Lyme patients who not only get over Lyme, but end up better than before they got sick once they get over the Lyme. Outcomes vary, be open to the possibilities. Stay positive. There is hope!
Posted 10/16/2016 11:32 PM (GMT 0)
You can only end up better if lyme is a wake up call for a bad lifestyle. This happen often with cancer patients. I know people who have told me (not many).... I am happy I got cancer because I realized my life needed to be cleaned up..... Ok so after cancer they are very healthy, more spiritual less stress prone because they have learned a lot. I mean I know people they even left their job and completely changed career, went on really enjoying life and the way how they approach it.
But seriously, what if you were already like that? I though I was....Although I had lots of side stress, but thought i could handle it. I know if I get better lyme, is giving me a new life perspective about what is important and what is not.

My health was extremely important before, now is like pass anything I can think of.....

Dr J told me (or the PA, but I saw both) that they treat on and off (giving your body breaks) until eventually they've gotten rid of most of the Lyme & Co then give your body a chance to build the immune system so it handles the residual bugs.

But some ppl use some of the herbals as a preventative. I haven't gotten there yet, but maybe Traveler will chime in.

Gkamom what do you mean breaks? Please elaborate hehe.

Arterimix thats what buhnet says. That lyme leads you to improve yourself in all aspects of your life it is a catalyst to becoming the highest form of yourself.

Birthday i totally feel you. I keep thinking my mental and psych symptoms are me and innately in me and here forever I have to remind myself that ita these infections. Makes me wonder who i truly am and what my personality is truly like 😭😭😭😭😭😭

I started out taking abx daily...and decided to pulse after hearing that Dr.J treats that way. He even talks about it on his website. So I started taking two abx M/W/F. And add in a third one Th/F. Do this for two or three weeks and take a week off. I started that I think about 4 months ago.
But I worry that for Bartonella because it's faster replicating that it will get resistant.

Dr. J knows his stuff, though - has done a lot of research...so I shouldn't worry about it.
