Starting a fresh thread. Got bit 4th of July w/e. Found tick July 5. Ten days later got bulls-eye, mild symptoms went on Doxcy four weeks. Stopped and felt symptomatic. Back on Doxcy. Want to start Buhner protocol. I got his book but it was so overwhelming and confusing and I'm not an herbalist -plus I have Lyme fog. I would love to know what the best 'starter' items are. This is what I am taking now:
• Sun Warrior Immune Shield Gold
• Colldial silver
• D-Mannose
• Astragalus
• Vitamin C
• Magnesium
• Probiotic
• B12
• Vit. D-K
• Magnesium oil spray
• Detox tea
• Alpha lipoic acid
• Gluthione
• Activated charcoal (have not been great on it since hard to work around food)

TODAY I began: Burber - just put one drop in water. So far, so good.

What I have (but have not started): Pinella, Japanese Knotwood, Samento* and Banderol*
*Heard they are not Buhner so will hold off on them for now.

THANK YOU LYMIES! Need to start kicking lymes butt.

I can only tell you what I would do - so here is my opinion.....

Once you get that Burber going I would then get the Japanese Knotweed added.

Here is Buhner's protocol. I added in the order they are listed.

1. Protecting endothelial structures (pg 214) - Polygonum cuspidatum (Hu Zhang or Japanese Knotweed)

2. Cytokine remodulation (pg 214) - Salvia miltiorrhiza (Red Sage) and Scutellaria baicalensis (Skullcap or Huang Qin)

3. Collagen protection (pg 214) - Great lakes gelatin, Vit C, Selenium, etc

4. Immune remodulation (pg 215) - Unicaria tomentosa (Cat's Claw), Cordyceps mycelium (a mushroom), withania somnifera (ashwagandha), Eleutherococcus senticosus, Glycyrrhiza (licorice)

5. Antispirochetal (pg 215) - Andrographis

But for the collagen protection, I used this item -- www.proteinessentials.com/#!protein-essentials-home-page-1/phm1s/!/Peptan%C2%AE-Hydrolyzed-Collagen%E2%80%93Unflavored-2-LB-BAG/p/62054897/category=0 However I did buy it from Amazon.

Artemix and PeteZa,

Thanks so much! I so appreciate this list. I just ordered this - CD mentioned it yesterday and I'll put it in my bone broth soup: https://www.amazon.com/b/?ie=UTF8&node=507846&tag=amazusnavi-20&ref=pd_sl_24x92mgoc0_b

Artemix, Thanks for the original Buhner: Japanese Knotweed, Eulothero (in new 2015 Buhner guidelines is Rhodiola) and Cat's Claw. This is the original Buhner protocol. Isn't Rhodiola what Japanese Knotwood is? So to clarify the beginner protocol is: JK, E, CC? Thanks.

PeteZa, where do you order most herbs from and which brand (I know there is a lot of fake herbs). I only want brands that have been Lymie approved!

So I have 1 and 3 covered. I don't even know what cytokine remodulation is.

To clarify: I will start with 1 drop of each item until I know I am ok and then increase? Do you take all of this every day?

I ordered the Buhner book and gave it away - way to confusing for me to get through with lyme fog.

Thanks.
