I think I beat lyme?

Holy crap! I think I beat Lyme disease!!! I never thought the finish line would be in site but now it is. 1 more month!!!

In case anyone is wondering what I have been doing... I am pulsing Minocycline (100mg), clarithromycin (500mg), and tinidazole (250mg) every second day. Yup that is it. I got this idea from the cured twice protocol but I made it even more effective with clarithromycin causing a double block in the lyme ribosomes. So any lyme that are in the process of doubling will be killed as their ribosomes lock up preventing them from finishing their cell wall growth that moment in time where their cell wall is open and stuck open kills them. That and I have Tinidazole to kill their little granules that they use like escape pods from a ship. Also I think with continuous antibiotics it causes them to freeze up where they are still alive and viable but they do not move. These ones will come back to resume normal metabolism when the antibiotics are not in the persons system making them think the coast is clear to make my life miserable again. So rapid pulsing seems to work.

Today I had a tiny tingle that lasted 1 minute on my upper lip. I think it is from 1 lyme spirochete. So I blasted him! Now the tingle is gone!!!

Anyways I feel like the finish line is so close!!!! Just 1 more month left and I change over to mitochondrial repair, lymplus transfer factors, and immune plus. That will be focusing on repair work.

On and by the way!!! Bartonella is DONE!!! All herbs for bart for like 1 month??? To be honest I think that's all it took. Ever since I started taking less, just 2 bart drinks a day, then just 1 bart drink a day, now I take a bart drink every second day... I think it's done. I just did the full Buhner Bart protocol and I think it worked!

Revive- I take all 3 antibiotics exactly the same time even in the same gulp with my water! I want them to all spike in my blood at the same time in the best possible way. I eat 1 scoop of organic coconut ice cream so they each have a nice blanket of comfort to carry them forward in my digestive tract! It is also low of minerals and high in medium chain fats to really maximize the absorption. Aside from the coconut ice cream it is basically on an empty stomach. The half life of each of these Abx is such that they will go down to a pretty low level the second day.

The next day... I take no prescriptives at all! Well I still take my nystatin, probiotics, multi, and support supplements. I also drink my wild cherry bark tea which I drink once a day now ever since I discovered it can cause a herx... But that one kills spirochetes that aren't dividing. The ABX are for the dividing ones... Lyme is such a complex bacteria, but they are actually quite vulnerable in their growth phase.

Yahoo Lymepickle! Great news!

Glad to hear Dr. C.'s on board with your protocol.



Keep coming back on occasion to let us know how you're doing!

I'm so glad that you are feeling so much better, LP! I hope you clear the rest of the active infection quickly.

YAY!!!!!! So there is hope (except I'm doing herbals).

So glad you r feeling better....I heard from several dr.'s to prevent relapse you may need maintence herbs. So keep going at it.

Glad you r finally seeing the light at the end of the dark tunnel.

dying2getwell?

Are you sure we need maintenance herbs? I'm not so sure that is entirely true for all cases. There are lots of people that recovered that no longer need any form of medication or herbal treatment. I think the infection is not fully treated if it just comes back? That is just what I believe and choose to believe. There are actually lots of variables here. But yes it is very well possible that I am one of the 'incurable' types. In that case I will have to be on maintenance herbs.

The whole point of me choosing this protocol I am on now is to beat it completely. I would already be at the point of going on maintenance herbs if that was the case as I have virtually no symptoms. I am killing persisters.. The same kind that come back when we supposedly stop treatment.

Girlie--- I am not going to go every third day or fourth day. The every second day is perfect because it takes them 12-24 hours to reproduce once, and there is enough time for each germ to feel it is safe to come out with every second day. If you go every 3rd, 4th, day then I think some germs are reproducing and getting away with it. Next up I will do the Dr. B cured once protocol! LOL if I need to that is, and only if it comes back. That is 6 straight weeks on ceftin, 3 weeks off, 6 weeks on ceftin, 3 weeks off, and then 6 weeks on ceftin and then finished! Each germ chooses to reproduce on average every 3-6 weeks.--> With 4 weeks being the overall average of course. So this covers the early birds (as you only take 3 weeks off), and finishes off the late ones too (as it goes for a full 6 weeks).

Alchornea I think is for bart too and is an anti-microbial kind of herb. Like Sida it protects red blood cells and also acts as an antibiotic.

You know what I realized? His full bart protocol actually includes L-arginine, EGCG with quercetin, and vitamin E. I forgot to take those! But it still worked. Oh… LOL I was also taking minocycline and clarithromycin while on this protocol for Bart… Both of those treat Bart so I should also mention that.

I love reading these! I'm so happy that you're feeling better and doing so well. Thank you for taking the time to share. When I'm down in the grips of a herx, hearing a success story like this really helps. Good luck getting those last little stragglers. In my opinion, they don't stand a chance! :)

Hi Mr. Mike! 

Ya well for my transition to repair, I plan on using intestinew ( I need to fix my digestive tract after the amounts of abx I took), ATP fuel (need to heal my mitochondria from both intracellular abx and the infection damages),  taking immune boosting herbs, LymPlus, and the Multi Immune from Researched Nutritionals.  I also am getting an IR sauana as well.   Lots of probiotics, curcumin, and omegas.  A Paleo diet. 

I think for herbs I may keep taking japanese knotweed (as this one is simply healthy in many ways and could benefit my health), and perhaps mushroom blends.   I don't want to be on too many medicinal herbs for too long though. 

I also want to start juicing daily as well.

So I mean to be honest it's a pretty long process!  It is really quite rewarding to have your health back though, and now that we have been in the depths of a Chronic Illness I think it teaches us to value our health more?  And also at least it's not as bad when you get over the "hump" we all know that time when we are just starting out with Lyme and feel like we'll never get better and are just herxing for months on end. 

Personally I do strongly support antibiotic herbs and support herbs... But in terms of killing the bugs I still prefer using antibiotics.  Just because there is more science on how it affects the bugs and more data.  With the herbs I guess there is always that concern of the unknown.  Not saying they don't work because they do, but I just feel more security with abx. 

That being said if I ever feel it comes back... I will have ceftin ready!

I'm s OK happy to hear this Lyme pickle what great news! To be symptom free is all that matters. And if you start to feel sick again at any point you'll know what to do. Congratulations fellow soldier!!

Well done mate, I hope your health remains for long to come

Great to hear the news Lymepickle! I knew you weren't far behind me! Keep it up!!

Nikdem, I did mino, and Biaxin together with the herbs. But before it kept relapsing so I think the herbs did the trick. One symptom remains that is occasional foot aches when standing. It doesn't occur in the morning though, and all other bart symptoms are cleared so who knows? And yes I am letting Will know you would like to chat with him right now.


Thanks Chapelle! Ya I am hoping and praying this protocol works... If it doesn't though, no more tini for me... Zip, none, I won't take it ever again. And it is in the back of my mind every single dose I take! I get a tiny little voice that is telling me I shouldn't be taking that, and then another voice tells me you need to beat lyme! Lol. But if it doesn't work this time around I will pursue other options like ceftin. I know it's good to stop antibiotics and believe me I would really love to be able to stop them! But for me I won't stop treating until I am 100% and with no lingering symptoms of infection at all. Anyways I have just 1 month left on this protocol so maybe 15 more doses? I think Lyme got into my tendons though and not sure how well these ABX will get there.
