Hello,

Started to do enemas recently. I do a pink sea salt one daily for worms, and they come out in droves. If I do a plain one though with warm water, it seems the next day I have trouble moving.

So..are they ok every day? I mean I am taking stuff to detox and kill lyme..gotta keep moving! A friend said not to become dependent on them, but..maybe that's for a normal healthy person. Did one last night, and cant move..but..I work 3-930 pm tonight..so if I don't have one by then..well..will be no choice

Thanks

You do know your body best, but please do be careful doing them daily! As your friend explained your bowels will become dependent on that stimulation and won't move without it, which would be even worse! Retraining bowels is no easy task!

right,well I dont understand why I do one cause im more blocked up, then I get blocked up again..i am doing stuff to kill bart,yeast and viruses. gotta move!

Yes, they do have to move daily, but it could be a motility issue as well as other things. I know I suffer from motility issues - bad enough that I have to stay on some herbs that help me keep things moving.

Motility issues actually make sense for a lot of us with Neuro Lyme, since Neuro Lyme is in the nerves and it's the nerves that control the intestines.

Are you taking large amounts of probiotics? That is another thing that is necessary when taking abx and dealing with yeast. You must repopulate your intestines with the good bacteria, otherwise the bad bacteria will just get a good foothold again.

Well traveler..doctor who diagnosed me said coffee enemas daily so..going to have to take that risk..I cant go on without moving a whole day..even though I know some are worse.

What are you doing to kill viruses?

I wouldn't do them daily, but I would do them every week just short of the parasite's life cycle. Find out how long it takes the parasite to replicate and use that info to guide you on frequency.

Well, the choice is ultimately yours, Kdawg of course. I was just warning you, as I've been through bowel retraining (because mine never knew to move daily) and it wasn't pleasant. I'm willing to have a couple of days of constipation (as miserable as it is) rather than go through that again - but that's my opinion!

We see even LLMD's give not so good advice on this forum, so I won't assume a doc is right on much of anything until I confirm it myself. But again, the choice is yours. I do hope that you get the results you are hoping for.

I'm with you there, trav. It's sad, but I in the back of my mind I assume that most doctors really don't know what they're doing. I know it's wrong & I pray to be more trusting.

Actually, that's just being your own health advocate - not the not trusting part, but not following blindly. I won't even start a new prescription or herb without checking it out to the best of my ability.....whatever that may be that day!! LOL!

There had to be a certain number of docs get only "C's" or there wouldn't have been any getting "A's"! Where I live, I'm pretty sure they all got "C's" or worse! It's quite scary here when you talk to the locals and find out how many have been seriously damaged by doctors and hospitals. I've had too many experiences with the local docs to trust them either.

Hi Kdawg,

Personally I would not do enema's on a daily basis..  I think your body would start to depend on them.  Why not take a break (even if you don't go for 2 days or so) and start eating more foods with fiber/ruffage and let your body go naturally?  I like to do a coffee enema about twice a month.  And if I am not eating enough fiber then I take some magnesium which does the trick.   I also drink Green Vibrance which helps me too.

Detox baths also help as epsom salts are really magnesium which gets absorbed into one's skin also helping to have a movement..  Exercise (if you are able to) helps as well..

Just my thoughts,

Denise

I use about 1 tablespoon of flax seed everyday and it really helps to keep me going.
