Ozone therapy, anyone try?

Has anyone tried ozone therapy for late stage Lyme? I am contemplating this. I have done 9 months of antibiotics along with banderol and somento. Although better I am still dealing with Lyme symptoms and fatigue. I don't want to do antibiotics again and am exploring herbal protocols and looking into ozone therapy.

I have a LLMD next appointment is late October. Trying to get info before that appointment.
Just wondering if anyone has tried it and if anyone has had success from it.
Thanks, susan

Hi Sarah,
Thanks for responding. The doctor offering the Ozone is saying it takes many sessions for a long time in order to eradicate the Lyme. So his plan is treatments 3-4 times a week for maybe a year.

I was a bit concerned when he says it kills off the good bacteria also, so I was feeling like it was like antibiotics again which was not what I wanted to do.

It's just confusing trying to find unbiased info about it since many of the articles are written by doctors who offer ozone.

Did you have any herx reaction from it?
Thanks, Sue

If your going to do ozone you might as well invest in your own machine with the amount of treatments you need and how often you need them for any benefit I wish I could afford one

I'm curious how this could help anyone other than the doctor. It is a red flag to me that the doctor said it will take 3-4 sessions a week for a year for it to help.

I get that oxygen in the blood kills things off, but isn't that the point of adding hydrogen peroxide to the epsom salt baths. I know it certainly would be more concentrated by IV.

I just haven't seen anything on this forum that seems to indicate it is something very helpful.

Many years ago, I was seeing a chiropractor when the insurance coverage ran out. He gave me a "deal" and charged me the amount that would have been my co-pay, $35 but also wanted to see me 3 times a week. That was roughly $400 a month and I never really got too much benefit. Eventually, I decided it wasn't worth it.

How many thousands are you going to pay this doctor? Is it the best way to be treated or is there a better use for that money?

My current doctor gave me a new medication and told me the only problem was that it would take three months to see a difference. But it was a medication that cost me $10 a month and it was worth every penny of the $30. Some of my worse symptoms went away. Without knowing it I was treating Babesia. This was even before I knew anything about Lyme. The science was also there at least for the symptoms I had - severe joint pain, drenching sweats and pain on the soles of my feet. Best $10 a monthI've ever spent.

I know that this may come across as callus, but it there science on Ozone therapy. I know some people might say there isn't science on a lot of the herbal remedies, but there really is. Many of the protocols have been put together by people who are educated in herbal medication. These herbs have known properties. There is a reason why each one was selected. It's no different than a doctor choosing one blood pressure medication over another. The first choice doesn't always work because we're all different. So we try something else.

I'll be happy to say I'm wrong, but I'd rather take a beating than have anyone be taken to the cleaners. Believe me I almost got taken by the dumbest scam in the world. I practically handed someone thousands of dollars. It wasn't a doctor, but I learned my lesson. Question everything.

Make sure before you hand this doctor thousands of dollars that it really is a therapy that does more than line his pocket.

Toby uses Homozon as ozone therapy. He has been using it for at least a couple of months now. I wasn't sure if it was helping that much, but I think it may be. He seems to breathe better than he used to and his swallowing has improved a little. At any rate, oxygenating the body is a good thing ,whether ill or not.

The place we go to for healing uses that Myeezy. They really recommend it, but we have only done it once. I should bring a glass bottle everytime so we can use it.

My Wholistic LLND believes in lower dosing of treatments. I did ONCE weekly, for 8 weeks of I.V. ultraviolet blood irradiation-which is one way of oxygenation. I also did 8 weeks of once weekly I.V. chelation. Both treatments caused SO much pain and fatigue; but I have since found out that I'm still dealing w/pain and fatigue due to having the mthfr gene mutation, which means I don't detox well...

Ugh!!! BTW, the U.V.B.I. did suppress my viral load, and my Lyme tests were positive before that treatment, and negative after ozone treatment(but also herbal tincture)

What was your experience with the ozone? @Snue (or others)

We're thinking about trying it, or at least a home treatment, like ozone sauna, water, by ear, etc...

Get your "10 pass" hyperbaric ozone from Dr. H at the ClearHealth clinic in Salt Lake City. He'll tell you that if he can see your veins, you can get all 10 passes from the get-go--no need to work "work up" to 10 passes and waste your time and money. He charges $400 for all 10 passes, BY FAR the cheapest in the country. It works very, very well--I'm about to "turn the corner" after 10 treatments--all this after 5 years on IV antibiotics with failure after failure. The secret is that ozone kills all Bb and co-infections, no need to use different ABX for different co-infections, all the while increasing your Bb cyst load. Ozone has no effect on Bb cysts, however, so you may still relapse, depending on how long you've been on ABX to drive the Bb spirochetes into cyst form.

Fuzzy, any update on how you are doing now after the 10 passes, since your last post was a few months ago? Thanks.

I bought my ozone generator from simply o3.
The research I read says it 95% the same as IV and way way cheaper.

I think it greatly helps-lots of research for anyone who wants to read it.

Good lectures on YouTube also

Sebreg- I've done the Hocatt. I did it a few times and found it to be very beneficial! However.... one side effect to be aware of it that some people can develop an "ozone rash" from the Hocatt. I, of course, was one of those people. It was brutal and not to be taken lightly. Took me six weeks to get rid of it. Flaming red, super itchy, very uncomfortable. The only thing that helped was super potency topical steroid cream.

I am considering trying it again and starting very slowly this time. Instead of starting at 20 minutes, I'll start at five minutes and wait a week before I do the next session.

I'm interested in rectal insufflation but concerned that it will kill all the good bacteria in my gut too. I've been working so hard on building that back up.

Do you feel the rife machine is no longer helping you move forward in your recovery?
