I got another tick bite 3weeks ago and now I feel horrible- swollen joints, no sleep, low energy, headaches.

I cannot afford my Lyme doctor appointment, so went to free clinic for doxycycline. I have lots of antibiotics from past years.
Doctor would only prescribe 20-100mg doxy pills which is better than the one he said at first.
i have taken the doxy in the doses of 400mg a day like I have in past which means having enough for 5 days rather than the 28.

Please give your opinion on these medicines and herbals I have on hand in terms of most effective, amount, time.

Ceftin 500mg
Azithromycin 250mg
Rifampin 300mg
Blt by researched nutritional
Crypto plus by researched nutritional supplements
Artemisinin sod by researched nutritional supplements
Silvercillin 10ppm colloidal silver

Also how much diflucan and nystatin?
I am doing fermented foods and probiotics, too.

Thanks again for all your help!

I have had people go to 2 doctors just so they get enough doxy.


From the Buhner website --

NEW TICK BITES

For new tick bites, Stephen typically recommends taking astragalus – 3,000 mg daily for 30 days, 1,000 mg daily thereafter, indefinitely. Also: using a paste made of andrographis tincture mixed with green clay, the paste applied on the tick bite area can often prevent an active infection.

I don't know if 3 weeks is considered a recent tick bite. I think this may be the protocol for a 1 or 2 day tick bite.

Hi Darn I really don't like these ticks. I am so sorry that you have been bitten again.

Do you or are you able to get your hands on Andrographis, Japanese knot wood and cat s claw Tomentosa?

Green dragon botanicals has a Buhner formula in capsule form that may be of help and more cost efficient...... not sure.

I don't feel confident answering about those other meds, but hopefully another member will post soon.

I wish you the best and hope it all works out for you.. Take care, Jo


Keep detoxing and taking those probiotics.

Maybe add to the doxy - the azithromycin. (doxy 400 daily)


When you run out of doxy - switch to Ceftin. and do Ceftin and Zithro.

Add Crytolepis and/or Artemisinin to the Ceftin and Zith.

Pulse the Art - 3-4 days on, and 10 or 11 days off.

Thank you for your help and suggestions.

I was hoping that the 5 days of 400mg doxy would work some miracle, because I have worked so hard on healing my gut since on IV. But no such luck on a miracle without relapse.
Now I will start on the additional meds and herbs on hand and hope for positive outcome.
I am allergic to wasps so bee venom therapy is probably not advised, and the new herbs I am unable to get at this point.
Thanks again!

As PeteZa said mass dose Astragalus for an early bite. I'm with blue-cycle through all of them and take the BLT too. I like that stuff. Try to take at least a dropper full twice a day.

This may be the most important-take a HUGE DOSE of CALM. Stress inhibits our immune response. You know with 100% certainty that you have the thoughts and prayers of every member here. You got this early and that's the key. Add in Vit D, maybe a good multi vit, etc. Fortify your body and then know you are in control.
