Quiting mino..

i called the ambulance twice on mino because i thought i will suffocate and/or have a heart attack. in my case it had nothing to do with the breathing but with the heart, bacteria dies in the heart and creates a storm of immune response and it makes your heart beat erratic and inefficient. so in my case it was a herx.



2 and half weeks is too little in my opinion to kill the bug. i would ask your LLMD for advice. i can tell you what helped me but im not a doctor and it's risky to treat yourself online.

so i would do this

- visit an ENT to see what is with that fluid u describe
- do an EKG to check u don't have some serious problems with the heart
- do an O2 test to see blood O2 levels
- for heart rhythm problems u can take CoQ10 100mg, but DO NOT TAKE it if u also take mepron or malarone
- also magnesium helps but not with the antibiotics, magnesium and calcium can interfere with absorption

besides this you can read our new to lyme and search the page after the word "detoxing"

last but not least, this is the role of an LLMD, to provide main treatment plus supportive treatments as well, help u cope during a very serious time in your life while u take antibiotics. This is why people should not self treat.

mpost had great recommendations, but I would also add Hawthorn. This helped me a lot with heart issues. I was in the ER two nights in a row because of heart issues. I think treatment along with the Hawthorn and CoQ10 really helped it subside.

indeed , even now i take hawthorn daily. helps much with the sleep in the evening. but u need to watch your blood pressure, because it can be dangerous to take hawthorn if it is too low... otherwise it is an excellent heart med and also does help if u have Bartonella

how long you feld like this mpost?

dude , go get an LLMD, this is not a flu that will "pass away". u need a guy that gives u supportive treatment for months and years to come. I am not talking about antibiotics here, if u just take abx without support, your body will not be able to handle it.

until the worst to pass away? In hospital the gave you something for this? or they tell you that you will be ok?

in hospital they give u one month of antibiotics if u have positive lyme test and symptoms. if u had lyme for years this will do nothing to you, meaning it will not be curative. what happens after ... there are empty pages in the textbook about what to do with these patients that are sick for years, so u will probably not find much help with regular doctors. U can use them to exclude other conditions and make sure u dont have other diseases. Then, with a big folder full of tests that say u are perfectly healthy, yet u feel as dying, and with a positive lyme test, please go find an LLMD...

Hi George,
Just thinking of you and your dad and praying for you both.

Hoping he gets past this rough spot and thank you for helping and caring for him.

Take care, Jo

Thanks Jo..
