Has anyone used TCM and accupuncture as main treatment for Lyme/ bartonella? Ive had horrendous adrenaline surges like I'm going to die,severe depression and anxiety so I'm virtually a recluse
Does Chinese herbal medicine help?
I read cat's claw and holy basil help adrenaline anxiety..any other suggestions please?
I alsl have serious gi issues so am worried about pulsing flagyl, l have malabsorption and severe dryness in gi tract
Any other suggestions to reduce the severity of the adrenaline surges which start at 2 am and are relentless all night
would help
I can't exercise to run it off like l used to due to the physical pain of burning hands/ feet
Thanks

I was told to take ashwagandha at bedtime to help with the adrenals.

I did acupuncture for a full year (every week) before I got my diagnosis. Didn't know what was wrong, but I was having massive anxiety. It helped some.

For anxiety, what's saved my life are a few things: CBD oil (as needed), Happy Campers (find on Amazon), staying hydrated (not kidding, dehydration makes it worse), and telling myself, "Not today!" when I feel the anxiety coming on. Also reminding myself that everything is temporary. Everything.

For the GI issues, start working on healing your gut. Paleo helps, more veg than meat, bone broth, but BPC-157 is a miracle. Everything starts in the gut. If you haven't already cut out wheat and sugar, do that.
