Hi everyone,

I have bartonella & unfortunately am not able to afford to see a specialist. I’m just wondering if this is able to be treated cheaply at home & what can be used that’s cost effective?

Thank you in advance

Herbs are a good form of self treatment. There are various options, but Buhner’s protocol is probably the most widely used.

Japanese knotweed is very affordable if you use the powder form. You can get 1lb bags from 1st Chinese herbs.

Houttuynia is the other primary herb used for bartonella. Some people buy the cut form in bags and make tea, I believe. I use the tincture form from Woodland Essence.

Sida acuta is the other most recommended herb by Buhner for bartonella. I also get that in tincture from WE.

A lot of people can’t tolerate full doses of the herbs. If you’re one of those people, then tinctures can be pretty affordable, too, if you only tolerate small doses.

That’s not the full protocol, just barebones. I would also highly recommend Chinese skullcap for cytokine management. If you get psych symptoms with bart, then I would use kudzu root, as well.

The most common DIY treatment that people find effective is Buhner's Bartonella protocol. http://buhnerhealinglyme.com/

Sida acuta
Hawthorn
Arginine (unless you have any herpes family viruses)
Milk thistle
Japanese knotweed
Houttuynia

Build up doses slowly.

Keep in mind that mold illness and Bartonella can look the same, so look into mold exposure if you don't see progress with the Bartonella treatment. The book Toxic by Neil Nathan is a good overview of Bartonella, mold illness, mast cell illness, and other issues.

Good luck!

Buying herbs and making your own tincture is said to be cheaper .

I would recommend doing some yoga, meditation, earthing, spend time in nature and work on your sleep hygiene, diet, etc also as it costs $0. I treat my Bartonella with some herbs but I mostly focus on lifestyle changes.

I would use some cistus incanus tea as well. I use Organic Cistus Incanus 200 Tea Bags (200 x 1.3g) 9oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BBQBBZZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_-fC7Fb03YZDR5?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I would try to use antibiotics in addition to herbs. You can buy most bartonella antibiotics on all alldaychemist.com (bactrim, minocycline, rifabutin, clarithromycin). Do research online and in bartonella FB groups about protocols LLMD's use. One useful article is called Kills Bartonella by Marty Ross, you can google it.
