What helped alleviate your fatigue symptoms??

Ashwagandha, but more so my daily energy enfusion which has large amounts of B-vitamins and all he essential stuff that the body needs.

Next up for me is NT Factor which i haven't ordered yet but it should help to restore my mitochondria which will give me more energy.

EDTA chelation 2x weekly combined with colonics 2x weekly. Now ALA.

My husband and I just use liquid B-12, twice a day under the tongue for 30 seconds.

We noticed an improvement in energy within days.

Our LLMD wanted us to get the shots but our insurance wouldn't approve it. It wasn't expensive either way but we really like this liquid stuff. I think it's Nature's Way, it was buy one get one free at Rite-Aid.

Up to 10 hours of sleep, as many nights as possible.

Samento helped me when I could take it.

Taking excruciatingly good care of myself, which basically doesn't happen.

Burbur.

Under activity (vs. over activity). Margaret

Nothing has helped me yet with energy.

I've tried a whole lot.

@WWJD - glad you are improving but this thread is specifically for certain supplements/activities that you know helped with fatigue, not for advertising a protocol.

My LLND started me on a formula called ATP Fuel (Complete Mitochondrial Support) when I was (finally) diagnosed with Lyme and she suspected a Bartonella co-infection. We started treating the Bart at the same time. Within a month or so (VERY slow build-up of the Bartonella treatment) it started to feel like a veil was being removed...or as others have commented here...like weights were being removed that I usually lugged around every day. I can't tell if it's the treatment for the Bart or the ATP Fuel specifically that have helped (plus Seriphos for sleep assistance), but I've had WAY more 'good' days vs. 'bad' days on the energy front, even suffering through a current massive herx, since starting that as part of my protocol.

Good luck!!!

Nothing so far, but keep on posting please!!

I'll start taking Low Dose Naltrexone end of next week, I hope I'll be able to join this thread with some good news.

1. Biofilm treatment more so to clear blood flow hindering vs infections I found out I have CCSVI and blood flow to brain and back is blocked and all organs and body in sluggish mode due to that.
2. Detoxing to clear toxic burden due to all I am listing
3. Mitochondria treatments to treat cellular level. - I use cold laser
4. Infection clearing because causes added burden causing more drain on immune system and body.

I believe all the other things I have treys are trying to work to treat a symptom instead of remedy a cause. I have tried many of them and nothing really helped. I will say my fatigue issues were severe and if it was more mild maybe I would notice help from
Some things meant to help energy. But for me having energy is also separate entity from being fatigued. I can feel energy but be very fatigued or have zero energy in bed with fatigue too as added horrible layer. If fatigue lifts and i am tired I actually can sleep somewhat but with fatigue it actually is that horrible feeling I can't put words too.

Not easy to prove the cause but for me the above list in order is what has helped and still working on it as fatigue was my first symptom and my last one left.

I too have so much fatigue. I finally got on low dose pamelor which has really helped but I still feel tired when I wake up. I am so tired of being tired.

the weird thing is I took 6 months of antibiotics, and one month of mepron and stopped all the antibiotics to give myself a break. I feel so much better since then except for the fatigue and problems with sleep. one reason I stopped, is I could not tolerate how hard it was on my body and I could not function. I also have made an appointment to see dr j for more evaluation of my lyme disease and his recommendations. I recently had a mercury amalgam pulled from my mouth and I can't tell you how much better I feel. I feel like I may have mercury toxicity or heavy metals problems I do have the mthfr gene mutation. I keep hoping once I start detoxing my body now that I am eating right and taking the supplements I will heal. I also have been doing lots of emotional cleansing working on years of trauma and repressed emotions.

Louise Hay has a good line of books on how illness present themselves as illnesses in your body. she has a good book on how to heal your life and a book telling you how different diseases of your body come out because you feel not loved, guilt, self hate and so forth. I myself I had a lot of self hate and I think this is part of why my immunity was so weakened. it started attacking itself, due to my self hate.

all my headaches have disappeared, and the weird shooting pains on the bottom of my feet and on my body. I am seeing an alternative health practitioner tomorrow for IV supplementation to see if that will improve my energy levels, and he also treats lyme disease. if all goes well and I improve over the next month, I may not have to go see dr j. I am worrying about the money we are really getting in a pinch with money due to my illness.

Mystery-Did you ever find solutions to your fatigue? I see you put something about IV supplementation. Did that help?

hi ginger update to my progress and treatment: I had an IV infusion of peroxide every week in may and june and one or two in july. then I moved and in middle of divorce so on. my financial situation changed.

I dramatically improved while getting the iv peroxide. I took po antibiotics for 8 months so sick bedridden and got so desparated I called this alternative doctor that gives the infusions. my energy levels went up I felt well enough to go out, I even began doing ground work with my horse to help her and increase my body strength. all of my lyme symptoms I was having went away primarily burning on bottom of my feet, different areas on my chest wall and back, headaches, body aches. my tinnitus has not gone away. it is constant. I was also having insomnia and had to get on xanax at night and that helped me too by getting more rest.

well I stopped getting the infusions in july. by the middle of august, my lyme symptoms starting returning, I was getting tired again, headaches, then slowly my feet started burning etc. I had been doing research on oral hydrogen peroxide and oxidative medicine. luckily the health food store owner is excellent in my town, and she carried oral food grade peroxide. she has many patients in my area taking it and she and her husband has used it themselves. I started on the oral peroxide. it must be food grade. the first week I herxxed so bad I could not get out of bed. well, I had to bump down from 35 % 1 drop to 3% 1 drop and increase slowly. I am up to 6 drops once a day and holding my own altho my symptoms are mild. I am a RN and I have ordered everything I need to give my own infusion but this is only a last resort. Please do not do this nor am I advising it this is my own personnel journey. but I may not have to resort to this means.

several days ago, I needed a pain specialist to see for pain management and I called one that happened to have a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. he is the only one in my town that has one. I got a referral. well today I went to see my lyme md we discussed my treatment plan. I have not done well on antibiotics. he agrees with me I have bartonella. I told him about the doctor with the oxygen chamber and low and behold the man is one of his friends, and the machine is just as effective or more that iv peroxide. he also recommended herbal protocol, cowwden, and colloidal silver plus something called mms. he even told me what to tell his friend roy to set the machine on and for how long and how many days. he increased my azithromycin from 250 mg to 500 mg daily which I am now starting back on. he said rifampin good for bartonella but I just can't tolerate rifampin it liked to have killed me i herxxed so bad I could not move out of the bed.

I cannot believe that my southern town of 60,000 people has a small health food store with a pro on food grade hydrogen peroxide and herbs. and that it also has a pain specialist familiar with lyme disease and that has a machine that kills lyme disease a form of oxidative therapy. there is also 5 minutes from my home a state of the art gym with under water treadmills and a sauna. and my lyme md who is excellent is only 2 hours from my home.

I prayed to god for the last 2 yrs to help me and now I can see how he is working in my life. I had turned away from god and jesus. but I rededicated my life and all I know is that my prayers are being answered and help is here no matter how hard the battle and journey is and I have so much hope. it is so hard to live with a chronic disease and one that is just on the forefront of being recognized and studied. I never thought I would ride a horse again, I am riding. I never thought I would own my own home again and I now I own my dream cottage. I did not think I would cook, or clean again but I am very slowly. my family is supportive, which I prayed for. I wanted one or two friends. I have two now. I cried for peace, and now I am getting quite a bit. my financial situation is scary but I am muddling thru it. this disease has made me grateful for even the smallest thing.

don't give up all of you suffering. I am still suffering but it does get better, god does answer prayers but sometimes you have to wait on his answer and the time.

god bless everyone and I will keep you updated on my progress. I do have to take 1/2 a percocet or a vicodon to go some days due to herxxing and feeling bad. I am hoping the pain doctor will be able to offer other forms of help for pain management. jackie
