Can we talk mycoplasma p?

Ok. So I tested positive for myco p. months ago but never really tried to hit it hard. However during my doctor appointment yesterday, my doctor stated that myco p. can be ruthless and can make you feel like crap. I agree. I really think this is a biggie in my world. I am taking some of the buhner herbs for this, but I'm going to add in Beyond Balance ENL-MC. My doctor added that myco p. can cause many symptoms that are sometimes attributed to Lyme but in patients where they were fortunate enough to test positive for myco p. and treat it they find they feel much better once that's down.

I tested positive for a number of reactivated viruses. And I've got bacterias and a fungi.

I've done muscle testing with 3 different practitioners and 2 of the 3 have always stated that I'm fighting the above and not the Lyme party. My Lyme tests have always been cloudy (no actual positive test). I have the combo that Igenex says cross reacts with many viruses. Go figure!

Has anyone done beyond balance or Byron white for myco?

I know Girlie, but my 1 doctor who is good friends with Horowitz feels differently. My other doc also feels the same. I had an IND 31.

Or as my doctor likes to say, it doesn't matter because we are going to whip whatever is going on. He has a plan but he says nothing that I take is going to do much without getting my Vitamin A and D levels up. He said that's where a lot of doctors fail to get patients befell and a big reason as to why patients relapse. He wants my Vitamin A around 70 and my D around 80.

Yes both are critical in sufficient immune system function. I never had my A tested before seeing this doctor. And other docs blew off my Vitamin D scores of 30 something.

Krimpet,

Good luck with it all. Please do keep us posted as to whether it's possible to not have lyme. I don't even know what mycroplasma is but do it hear of it on the board often. Thanks for the vitamin A/D link. That is very helpful. I hope you feel much better soon.

My regular GP tested my D prior to my diagnosis...and I was low..can't remember the number...and I was actually taking vitamin D...had been on about 4-5,000 daily, but a month or two prior to the test had dropped it down.

A month later, after increasing my D....my test showed in range.

Krimpet - do you supplement with Betacarotene only - i know that too much A can be toxic...or what is a safe amount of Vit. A to take?

The doc actually has me doing vitamin A drops. 10 a day. I think it comes out 10,000 a day. And you are right...too much is toxic which is why I'm only doing this under his guidance.

I stopped and only doing 4 drops and it dropped my 20 points. I couldn't believe it.

Huddie it is nasty little no-called bugger. Many doctors don't test for it and in some cases it is a big impediment to getting well, although some of the buhner herbs like houtt are supposed to work on myco. I know Buhner has a protocol for it in his book.

Who knows on the Lyme? I'm just trying to get the immune system to start fighting some of these things. My doctor keeps telling me not to be worried about the "what" it is, but to concentrate on boosting my immune system. That's step 1 he says.

Hi, Krimpet. best to you and glad you found out about the myco. I tested positive for it as well, just in August and feel that has stopped my healing to a point. I've been reading Buhner's myco/bart book and it seems like a big mountain that just takes patience.

You've got a great attitude!!

Krimpet - do you recall what your level was? I tested positive on IGG but docs don't seem to concerned because it's not overly high (272). I think it's actually in the IND range.

The test I did at Quest has the range as <0.90 as negative.
My result was 2.12 (H). Granted that was back in June and I didn't retest on the past blood work.

Just wanted to let you guys know that the beyond balance formula for myco is in fact working for me and it's tasty 😋. The previous reading in October was 2.12 and it's now 1.73. So I'll keep at this one for awhile. Plus I've added in one of the Cowden products that also hits it.

I love the Beyond Balance herbs. Gosh the BB-2 tastes so wonderful. I think it is the cloves that gives it such an awesome taste.

I would take my Buhner's and chug them down and top it off with the good taste of BB-2.

So very glad it is working for you.

Actually if u eat right and address Candida u can get proper vits from food. I have mthfr on 1 allial and my b's we're at about 450. I changed diet after a few months and got them up to 860.
If u eat a well versed diet u can get most needed vits.

Doc told me to continue with this if it seems to be working. He also recommended calcium puryvate to prevent it from going into cyst form.

I don't have a bottle on-hand. Hopefully it will arrive shortly but here is what I found on the website where I normally purchase it.
