Just so you know, Buhner writes that all of the herbs he recommends can be used with all of the herbs from all other herbal protocols.
I'm sure you know that Cowden's protocol included some incompatible herbs that had to be taken at different times.
We all do a little something different when treating with herbs. Buhner has excellent suggestions for symptom-specific herbs and part of the success with his protocols is related to these herbs - they heal the particular parts of the body that were damaged by the infections (and the source of those symptoms)
For whatever it's worth, I opted to treat for the 3 B's - Borrellia (Lyme), Babesia and Bartonella after I learned that healthy people are walking around with asymptomatic Babesia and Bartonella infections. Even the CDC acknowledges this on their website:
www.cdc.gov/parasites/babesiosis/"Although many people who are infected with Babesia do not have symptoms, for those who do effective treatment is available."
www.cdc.gov/bartonella/clinicians/index.html"Most cases of cat scratch disease (CSD) resolve without treatment", although some patients may develop complications from disseminated disease.
Cat scratch disease is the henselae strain of Bartonella which is a common coinfection to Lyme. Actually, researchers and savvy doctors are now saying that Bartonella is so prevalent that Lyme should be considered the coinfection.
If healthy people can have no symptoms of Babesia or Bartonella and still be infected, it's entirely possible that those of us dealing with any of these infections could also be infected with Babesia and/or Bartonella....and not necessarily have any symptoms...or have mild symptoms...or just one symptom (mild or not)
