IV Abx for my son? Need advice and knowledge

Lymiemomster,

He has been on several protocols but don't remember them. Latest is mino/amoxy/sepra (but has sulpha allergy and had to stop).

Now, for past week on Amoxy/Biaxin and Zafrom for nausea and in four weeks supposed to add in Rifampin.

LLMD thinks he has Bart now.

I just noticed that your son started healing when off abx and onto herbs.

Can you speak more about that? Am I even understanding that correctly?

Thank you so much!

Trav,

This is what I want to do. I really, really want to just stop, detox, build immunity, do acupuncture, holistic practitioner machines, homeopathics and gut.

Let's see how far I get with my husband.

In all fairness he is 99% healed because he soared through major abx protocol, didn't herx and could still work and run. Men!

Thanks for thinking of us. I know you have so much going on.

Huddie, sorry for late answer...

The treatment I did for my daughter's knee was the one of Dr. Woit... in Germany. Google pforzheim Bionic 880, you will find it.

I know it's hard with the family (hubby...), but it's the life of your son in the middle!

Whatever you decide to do, it's a decision to be taken in 2, because you both bear the responsibility.

My husband got totally lost on what to do and let me take everything in charge.

The big guns may help (iv abx) if his gut is not in bad shape. that is my opinion.

There is the danger of bad candida, that ALSO CAUSES arthritis, fog, herxes, digestion problems, rash, etc.

I pulled my daughter off because I had tried amoxy before, and it just sent her downwards. Clearly downwards, and my lyme doctor forced me to pull her out and went into natural treatments. Much harder to do, because you need a lot of stuff, but much friendlier to the body.

It' s so much easier to self-treat and not treat our child. I could barely walk off the hospital the day I pulled her off iv rocephin, saying I don't want it for her.

The chief MD told me 'She may lose then her knee forever!'. That is what he told me, the monster.

I had to wait many minutes in the parking lot because I was shaking, and I had absolutely no more force to push the pedals in the car.

When I came home, I was in a wreck. This guy frightened me to death.

5 days later she was walking, playing, sitting ON HER KNEE ON THE KITCHEN FLOOR!!!

Before, she was in wheelchair, not even SITTING SHE COULD, so much pain she had in her knee. Going to the WC was hell, she screamed like hell just to go for a wee. She lost the ability to walk, and was already in a wheel chair.

It was awful. But 5 days later, I could not believe.

7 days later, she went to Kindergarten again!! Walking to school!! I mean... how mean these doctors can be.

Rocephin or any antibiotic would NEVER had done that in 5 days! Double knee size, risking to lose her knee, to zero swelling in 5 days? Even today, I can't believe.

So yep, there are alternatives to drugs, but they may or may not work. It's very individual, I suppose?

I totally agree with all others that tell you to concentrate on DETOX.

Give dr. Horowitz articles for him to read. Dr. H says that DETOX is the number one treatment that helps patients the most (or something in that sense).

DETOX, not killing.

Dr. Rau from Paracelsus also says that: it's the IMMUNE system you got to rebuild. And you do that by taking off TOXINS, giving nutrients, correcting diet, hormones, exercises, modulating the immune system, not by big guns (that may be necessary, short term, but long term it may cause more harm than good).

My own lyme doctor concentrates about 70% on detox, 5%-10% killing, the rest is symptom relief, or parallel treatments (teeth, scars, etc).

We both healed, my daughter and I. We are both being constantly bitten by ticks, and do not fall ill anymore. That is THE AIM, not killing this lyme disease bout, right? What if he's bitten again, and again?

A toxic body cannot heal: you can't sleep well, can't digest well, can't feel well, can't take in drugs nothing well, plus you get more and more active pathogens in a toxic milieu. Same as in the bathroom, the toxic places get all the mold and bacteria.

Clean the corners with vinegar or even water, the number of pathogens diminish!!

Maybe I can give the wife's ultimatum (no love if he doesn't agree) I'm so bad

Huddie - that made me chuckle.

Can't express how good it feels to see this conversation evolve into shared enthusiasm for gut health!! I sincerely believe it is the key to recovery - for most of us.

I understood this when my LLMD first guided me this direction when I first started, but I wasn't "all in" - I still felt very reserved about delaying treatment and was downright pissed off about the time it was taking... But over time, I experienced the difference.

And when I posted about it on the forum back in 2014 and a few times since, most of the time it was met with silence.

But I think more and more people are focusing on gut first and talking about it and this is amazing.

carry on!

I know one of the doctors starting this campaign and recently was invited to their beta site. It's nothing new to most of us, but, as you noted, it's good to see it getting into the mainstream:

Once again, thank you guys. Big hugs of appreciation all around.

Jinna thank you for sharing the stories of your and your daughter. I like the clean bathroom analogy.

Ok, guess I know what I have to do.

Girlie, Dr. R.doesn't usually pulse. He is so good though and will work and listen to what you need.
