My anxiety is so bad that I wonder if I can make it through this torment. I backslid from not continuing a full abx treatment starting last summer. I have quite a few snp's and the dreaded cbs and mthfr genes so my llmd insisted I see a functional doctor which I did. I am taking a methyl assist b vitamin sl which contains b6 and b12 (mrthycobalamin abd hydroxycobalamin along with a b complex. During that time I was only on 100 mg of doxy 2x daily. I started Buhner's protocol in March but was only on very low doses (2 to 3 drops daily) of some of the tinctures and higher doses of Stephania, Motherwort and Hawthorne. I saw my llmd 4 weeks ago and I had a choice of abx or A-Bart for bartonella treatment. I opted for A-Bart due to antibiotics ruining my gut (yeast and c-dif issues). I was told to work up slowly. I started at 1/3 drop two times a week at doctor's suggestion. I am only at 1/3 drop a day now. At this rate it will take quite awhile to get to recommended doses. I can take all types of herx reactions but this anxiety is the worst symptom. I know others have gotten through it so I know it will eventually get better. I have a husband that needs my attention due to a brain bleed 3 years ago and it is difficult to focus on him. I feel so bad that he has to listen to my moans and groans.
I use alka-seltzer gold, l-glutithione, lemon water, pinella, parsley, burbur, tox-eze, activated charcoal, milk thistle, cucumin and vitamin c for detoxing.
I take a calming formula (contains magnesium, GABA, Taurine, L-Theanine, Relora and Holy Basil), Motherwort and Avena Sativa for the anxiety which doesn't do too much.
I was wondering if those that are or have used A-Bart what dose did you finally see some relief from the anxiety? I can tolerate the wired feeling but this is ridiculous. Any thoughts or hints would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, my reason for posting is I want to try CBD oil. I know the 2 places to purchase it is blue-botanicals and Charlotte's Web ( sp). How do I know which one to purchase? I think the oils are preferred? How do I use the oil and how much do I start with? Really need help with this.
