Dont know what to do?

It sounds like a lot of symptoms of Lyme and co’s overlap. Thus making it difficult to differentiate what truly is going on. The last three years I have done buhner protcols for lyme, bart, and added a number of babs herbs. Although I have seen some improvements. The remainder of my symptoms are a little neuropathy on the inside of my feet and the worst of all the horrible thoughts and impulsive urges that are in my brain. I felt a lot of my brain inflammation subside. I was hoping that the psych symptoms would leave as well.

I feel like I have a few avenues that have pros and cons to them.

Not take abx and concentrate on Candida. I do feel a bit better on Nystain. I will take Diflucan tomorrow. I don’t know if my gut is healing and the probiotics are helping. My fear is that the abx will set me back. What if it was candida all along.
Take the abx and hope I do not herx to bad. Id rather have physical pain than these horrible psych urges and thoughts.
Look closely at hormones. I have been reading that Cortisol, thyroid, and other hormones can affect the brain. I often wonder how many of these remaing symptoms are due to hormone imbalance? I always seem to have bad intrusive thoughts urges around 5pm most days. Is their any thing that can fix cortisol levels?
Take psych meds. I am so desperate and worried about my mental health that I will take the meds if I have to. This is driving me crazy. I was always a very mild manner and laid back person. Now I feel like I am nuts and cant get morbid thoughts and impulses out of my head. I did have times where ending it crossed my mind. I feel like it would be better for me to go than to hurt anyone. I am disappointed at the person I have become. What keeps me going is the fact that I always believe that I’m one day away from being the person I was three years ago. Maybe my nuero transmitters need to balance out from the years of brain inflammation. I just hope its not permeate.

about 9 years back I went through a period were I got intrusive thoughts all day long. Really bad thoughts. It waa non stop for 3 months. The one thing that helped me out was taking 6 grams of pure Inositol a day. Have you tried Inositol yet?

I haven't. I surly will. Thank you!

Your welcome. Make sure it's the pure Inositol powder. You need to take at least 5 or more grams a day for it to work. You can buy the powder in bulk pretty cheap from swanson vitamins. Inositol is really well known and used in the OCD community. Just research inositol and ocd / intrusive thoughts. It pretty much stopped my thoughts after about a month or two of using it. Anyways good luck 😃

Thank you! What dose of velvet bean are you taking? It does seem to boost Dopamine. I also took the plunge and took my first does of Diflucan. I just had very mild flu like fatigue and felt kind of hot.
