Hi all,
I have a question about detoxing my mom. Briefly, we are strongly suspecting neuro-lyme based on ALS type symptoms. Igenex pending. We started doxycycline oral 2 weeks ago preemptively, got up to 400 mg daily within 5 days, and she began to experience what we think are herx reactions - nausea, vomiting, worse fatigue, worsening slurring, new right arm weakness. After she starting complaining of her lips feeling swollen and weird (like she had a cold sore), we stopped it on Saturday. Now the right arm is better, slurring is always a thing that depends on the day, and the stomach symptoms and fatigue are gone. In all the books and forums (like here), I read about detoxing. She is on teh curcumin for the herx, the liposomal glutathione, and she eats a clean/almost vegan diet.
I want to add the milk thistle, vitamin b12and folate - those are easy to get. I just want to know about the baths and the Dr. Jernigan Neuro antitox. For the epsom salt/hydrogen peroxide bath - would a foot bath be enough? Mom does not have a bathtub. As for the Neuro antitox, is it legit? It certainly seems promising, but I am hesitant to spend even more money. What are people's experiences? Are there other suggestions for detox?? Thank you so much!
