Have been feeling horrible the past week or so. Burning skin, especially on face, depression as usual.
Have been on chronic tonic/Hout+JK+CC+Andro+Crypto+Hawthorne
I have only been taking them since ending antibiotics in October and basically dropper full once a day.
Sometimes I feel its not even Lyme maybe its MS or something as my results still are negative via labcorp. All other blood work comes back fine. What should I do? Should I stop treatment? Switch to antibiotics?

I wouldn't lean towards MS just yet, especially when the jury is still out if it's a separate disorder.

One dropper full once a day isn't going to be enough treatment. Did you ever get an Igenex test?

We'rent we all convinced the symptoms you've had were Lyme?

Everything thing else needs to be addressed such as possible mold issues, gut problems, if you're de-toxing enough or too much. Lymph gland overload, and even a possibility of gene mutations that might keep detoxing methods from working.

I hate that you're feeling so bad, especially depression.

If you have worked out a sort of routine on paper, it would help us to get an idea what might need tweaking. Chin up!

Even if you are diagnosed with MS - lyme could be the cause...as lyme can cause the plaque on the brain/spinal cord...and cause the nervous system issues.

Sam,

I'm sorry you are feeling so blah. I wouldn't give up on Lyme just yet. I would add in Eluethero. It really lifted brain fog/blues. Worth a shot.

What does your doctor say?

Sam, I for sure wouldn't give up yet! It is going to take awhile. Be patient. I would also break up your herbs into 3 times a day. You'll feel wonkier before you feel better. Agree with Huddie re: adding Eleuthero. I use cannabis for my mood issues before sleep. It is going to take 3 months before you begin to notice a difference.

I would recommend, based on Buhner's doses, 1/4 tsp of each herb 3x a day.

I gave my book to my Dr. so I can't look up the exact doses.

Hang in there!
