Monolaurin and/or rife causing improvements?

For the last-few weeks, I have been using monolaurin and rife machine to try and knock out symptoms from EBV and Lyme. Those are the primary treatment chanages I have made, and I have I can honestly say I have felt about 30%-40% better for the last week.

I started very slowly on monolaurin and have slowly increased my dosage to about 2,000 mg a day (2X100 mg). As far as rife, I have been running the remote EBV treatment, along with a kidney and liver detox mode. In the last week or 10 days, I have not been experiencing the daily afternoon fevers I had for more than a year, and I no longer am dead tired in the afternoon and early evenings.

Even more positive is I actually find myself laughing and making jokes at times - something that just didn't happen for the last 14-15 months. I would guess I am functioning at about 50-55%,compared to 15% before. It has been too short of a time to simply believe I am truly better, and there are still moments where I feel much more "off."

The only thing I can point to is the monolaurin and rife. Not sure if it more one than the other. I've also recently added cryptolepis. Used to give myself a 1.2 mu Bicillin shot once a week, but now I've cut back to every 8-9 days. Trying to protect kidneys.

Guess what I'm leading to is when all else fails, keep trying new things. Monolaurin is, relatively speaking in Lyme world, low cost and simple. Rife is not low cost and very complicated. I still don't know 80% of what I can do with it. But I'm going to keep doing both and slowly learning more about rife with hopes of getting better.

Each day I wake up and hope and, literally, pray the improvement will stick and keep getting better. Hitting a new low lead me to try those two treatments, though I'm not saying that is the answer for everyone, or even the long-term answer for me. Time will tell. But having hope and not being depressed has been hard to find, and it feels good to at least have that.

Keep trying, even when crying.

running wild - reading this makes me happy - I hope your improvements continue.

I’m rooting for you !

I wish improvement for everyone. Not just temporary, but long term. We never know with each day.

Like so many here, there have been many does, make that most days, where I have been ready to give up on it all. You try so much, most of the time to no avail. That is why it is critical to keep looking for answers, even though you've had enough of it.

As I mentioned, there is no guarantee this improvement will last, but any improvement is hope. That is the whole point of posting this - to provide some hope for so many who I can relate to in believing there is no answer. It may takes months, years, but there could be the right combination that will get you back to 75% - 85%. I'll take that any day.

The mind games Lyme plays is brutal. The lack of hope is natural after trying for so long. If this ends up temporary and I fall back, I'll just have to tweak what I am doing. I've been in the darkest places you can be in with not good thoughts. But I have to hit bottom to bounce back.

Keep bouncing back.

Thanks, WBF. I really don't know if it is because of monolaurin and rife, but it seems too coincidental things started getting better a few weeks into using both of those. If you have monolaurin, it's wroth a try.

I started with very low dose, like I do everything. Not sure if it was causing a herx because I already felt real bad when I started it. If you try it out, I'd like to hear how it is going for you. And I hope it does some good things. I believe it helped with EBV with me, though I haven't had any blood tests to show it has gotten better.

I made the same mistake I always do when I start feeling better. Went out and worked in yard too hard for too long day before yesterday. Been slipping a bit, but trying not to let it go back.

Just mentioning to remind others not to make same mistake. It just feels so good to feel better. Thanksgiving food may not help either, though my kids and I went out and bought gluten free stuffing, dairy free items and low sugar and low sodium.

But I still believe the monolaurin and rife are making a big difference. Hope everyone has a good Thanksgiving Day and wish wellness for all.
