You got it! Thank you Ashley.

Are you currently treating? If so, I think you need to stop if you're on abx...and if herbals..stop any that are antimicrobial...

Are you detoxing?

thisisnotme you really need to be in treatment and if you are in treatment you super need to detox.

When you are not in treatment or are in treatment those lyme bugs are dying inside of you and you need to clean them out. They are toxins and you need to give them a clean highway out of your body. Whether you are treating and killing them or if they are just doing their life cycle and dying.

Detoxing is a full time job and imperative!

I was a lucky one and was doing it way before I had lyme..... I am so glad because it made my treatment so much easier.

I hope you find a better doctor. And I wish you much wellness.

I am not a fan of abx. Mostly because it caused me other symptoms that I had to take more stuff to cure. So I went the herbal route. It was hard to find a doc that would do that. Most docs are trained in how to dispense pharmaceuticals. I mean most medical schools are built by pharmaceutical companies, so it goes to figure,.

I know that sometimes you have to take a break from it all..... It just gets to be too much and very overwhelming. So I totally understand the stopping.

But, my advice is to get back in treatment as soon as you can and whatever treatment you decide on. This stupid lyme will not go away by itself.

It stinks. But at least you have found us and we are either going through it with you or can tell you how we went through it.

Glad you found us. I remember how happy I was to find like minded people that I could talk to.

Thank you, I've been detoxing heavily since January 10th until this past week. I haven't done any treatment except a tincture protocol with ABART. I'm really wishing we could give abx a whirl just to get some normalcy...thank you for the encouragement

Okay - so maybe it was a combination of the stress of the busy days combined with the cessation of detoxing - that put you over the edge with symptoms.
Have you tried Epsom salt foot baths or full baths for detox?

Are you still taking the A-Bart?

No, I stopped the ABART along with the NT detox she had me on for a few reasons.
I have been seeing (before we knew this was Lyme), cardiologist, neurologist, neuro electrophysiologist, rheumotologist, psychologist, family dr and OB.
Each doctor wanted me on different meds.

Diagnosis' have been:
SVT, POTs Syndrome, Ehlers Danlos, Errosive Hemoraghic Gastritis, Fibromyalgia, Anxiety, Migraines with and without Aura, as well as other mild things. So in order to treat those, I have been highly dosed in other medication which were masking in my opinion the root of the problem which I assume is the Lyme.

Beta Blockers (4 in the past year - now on Metoprolol ER but 2xdaily, which is too much to be taking but the only thing that works for heart rate control)
Cymbalta - nerve pain, headaches, anxiety
Sulcralfate - gastritis
Omeprazole - gastritis
Gabapentin - nerve pain
Wellbutrin - Fibromyalgia
Zoloft - headaches and POTs Syndrome Symptoms
Clonazepam - anxiety

Was prescribed all of this in addition to the detox.
NT Detox Tincture
ABART Tincture
Vitamin D
Super Omega 3
Juice Plus Orchard
Juice Plus Greens
Liver Cleanse
Urinary Cleanse
Bowel Detox
ProBio5
Lymphomax
Cytoquel
Artemisian
Thai Go - juice product
And I feel like I am missing one more. After being on all but the wellbutrin for 4 weeks, I started having a constant "high" sensation in my head where I couldn't focus on my kids. And also lost motor control in my hands (gripping, etc), and developed shakes like Parkinson's which they keep testing me for along with MS. I tried reaching out twice to my LLMD with no answers and my family dr is trying her best, but she is a patient with Lyme as well.

So with that I stopped. Yes, I do the Isotonic Foot baths every other day, and the detox baths as well though to answer your question I'm hoping maybe some of this will help. Or someone else has been on this route. I'm only 28, traditionally not a very patient person and I really need an LLMD who can recognize that I need guidance because self management is extremely difficult for me. And if I don't have an answer or know that what I'm experiencing is normal or just needs to be monitored, I freak out and get back to basics.

Right now I am only on the Metoprolol and Clonezapam.

Seems you may be lacking balance in your treatment and detoxing routines. We can treat too aggressively and we can detox too aggressively as well - the latter is called 'over detoxing" There's a very good article written on this here: www.tiredoflyme.com/4-reasons-why-you-still-feel-bad-despite-detoxing.html

Too much of either will make it so we can't function well, I found out personally how true this is, but it doesn't seem that many LLMD's (or any other doctors) really understand the concept of balance with these things.

Flooding the body with toxins is what they are both about though. We know treatment does this, but so does over detoxing, as the excess toxins are stored in our soft tissues mainly and detoxing too aggressively can release more toxins than the body can process out fast enough to keep herxing from happening.
