Hi Lee and Patti,
Lee, sorry I didn't e-mail you back yet, I will. No, one month is not going to accomplish much. It takes about 8 to 10 months total if followed correctly. When I followed Dr. J's "healing at home" protocol it was from his first book so many products that are available now were not available back then such as the Lymogen, etc. Back then there was no Perfect 7 protocol.
I took his Borrelogen and CNS/PNS Neuro-Antitox Formula (which was Pale Spike Lobelia and Silphitrin). If you don't have his book "Beating Lyme Disease" then I suggest buying it (soft cover is less money).
Taking the botanicals was the easy part, it's the heavy detoxing that takes much time and must be done on a daily basis. Detox Baths, detox foot baths, dry skin brushing are biggies as well as diet. Eventually I bought a portable infrared sauna, still continue to do coffee enema's (took me a long time to do that!), and I bought extra supplements such as Green Vibrance (contains many vitamins and minerals), Aloe Master, and more.
I did feel better within 1 month after taking the Borrelogen which is why I continued the protocol. After being bedridden most of the time, I was surprised that I could do light exercising. This protocol can take longer for some people to work as everyone is different. Also makes a huge difference if one was on antibiotics and that can be another obstacle, I happened to start with a "clean" body. I know of some that went on Dr. J's protocol who were on antibiotics but only to help wean themselves off antibiotics.
Patti, can you dry skin brush and do the foot baths? I remember reading that you were spending about $300.00 a month, I was spending $100.00 for 2 of his products (Borrelgen and Neuro-Antitox). Later on I switched to the Microbojen.
Dr. J's protocol addresses all aspects, not just the body. For example, I had to learn how to reduce my stress levels as I knew that would be a stumbling block for me.. I had financial problems, problems with my family, etc. and thanks to friends on another forum, I learned how to deal with everything in a more positive way.
Below is the old website that I knew when I followed his protocol:
