daily headache question

Thanks Girlie for your reply. I have decided to take another round of anti-bios, started yesterday. I have been researching detoxing. Do people usually detox while they are taking the anti-bios?

Thanks so much. Will get to detoxing in moderation.

Hi Lovely Air!
Welcome to our community! I'm so glad you found us.

For information on finding a​n ILADS ​(International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society)​ trained​ Lyme Literate Medical Doctor(LLMD) in your area, you will need to enable your email option in your profile in order to receive any recommendations, as we don't allow doctor's names and contact info to be posted on the forum for several reasons. You can enable your email option in your profile, under 'edit profile'. Be sure to click the submit button to actually save your preference.


​You can send me an email by clicking on my screen name or the small blue envelope under my screen name. I may have contact information for some LLMD's in your area as well.​ ​Please include your state (or province) and area that you would like to find a LLMD in and I will be happy to share the names I have.​


You can email the Tick-Borne Disease Alliance at [email protected]​ for LLMD referrals.


You can go to The Lyme Disease Association and search for LLMD's 3 times in a month. You have to register first. Here is the link:
www.lymediseaseassociation.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=277&Itemid=74​​


ILADS has their own referral system as well:
ilads.org/ilads_media/physician-referral/

And www.LymeDoc.org


​ You will want to find a well trained doctor, not one that has self proclaimed themselves as a LLMD or an ID Doc (Infectious Disease Doctor), as ID docs believe Lyme is hard to catch and easy to treat, and don't believe in the reality of chronic Lyme. Go to the ILADS site to read the new (2014) Treatment guidelines to get you started on your healing journey:
www.lymenet.org/BurrGuide200810.pdf


As for your detoxing, it's as individual as treatments are. We each need something a bit different usually.

You can most definitely add in Alka Seltzer Gold, and the charcoal, but the charcoal is a binder, and as effective as binders are, all binders must be kept at least 2 hours away from anything that you want your body to absorb - all pharma meds, herbs, tinctures, food, supplements and so on. The binders bind to the toxins, or anything else that is in the blood stream so that the body can't absorb it and it gets processed out of the body instead.

Cmomlq, I think in order for your email to go through you might need to enable yours.

To enable your email to to Profile, Edit profile, put in your email address and bull's eye the Show Email option and then at the bottom of the page click Submit.

I did email springjeans and said to look at this thread.

Thx Peteza, I appreciate it. I don't know if that is necessary cuz I sent an email to another person here who posted on Bart and it didn’t bounce, they just haven't answered yet. I can certainly try it, however! The email Addy which shows for springsjean is an AOL address. I didn't know if they still exist. I wonder if the Addy is incorrect?

awww, good catch on the aol thing. I didn't notice that.

Good to know ;) I rarely see it pop up anymore. I guess it's a Mark Twain thing; it's death has been greatly exaggerated :O

Hi Cmomiq -welcome to our community.


No, you don't have to have your email address enabled to email someone who has their's enabled.

I suggest that you do a search (upper left - blue bar) on Bartonella treatments...and you will see a lot of information.
If you have a particular question, you can start a new thread asking about it.

Also, there is a LLMD who has an online treatment book.

www.treatlyme.net

I think it's about $5.00 a month to subscribe to it.

We encourage all new members to take a look through the thread at the top of the page title: "new to Lyme?..Start Here!" It's full of useful information.

As a Moderator, I don't have access to someone's email if it isn't enabled...sorry.

Thank you girlie and Julymorning for the welcome. I haven't read the Lyme intro information everyone keeps saying it's at the top of the post but I don't see it there I'll have to search for it. By saying I have monitored The Forum I just mean I've looked at it here in there over the years. I found most of my information from lymenet, found some interesting threads here for Bartonella and buhner. I Hoped to speak directly to people who have experienced an herbal or alternative to antibiotic protocol and have succeeded for more than two or three years. That is why I registered today in that hope.

Right when you click on "Lyme Disease" you will see the list of topics. The "New To Lyme?...." is the very first topic.

Traveler, the moderator that has been on here the longest, is taking a rest right now. She cured 'herself' with a Chinese herbalist, I believe. She never did take abx(antibiotics). She was infected as a 7 year old, wasted years bouncing around getting the wrong diagnoses for 40 years. Yes, I believe she had healed for that period of time you're asking for.

She recently this year got re-infected but is using basically some of the same protocol that helped her the most before.

I expect she will be on by the weekend.

Thx jm, yes it's Traveler whose posts I am most interested in. Good to know she's healed from 1st bites. I emailed her but haven't heard back, good to know why. This will be a big commitment, I need as much info as possible before I embark on a course of action. My hay fever and issues I've had with some herbs concerns me. If you know of anyone who has had success with Buhner who might be available before 1pm pst tomorrow I'd appreciate the connection ;) <3 C
