Hey all,I haven't been on here in over a year and I've been doing so well seeing a Chiropractor, eating right, and herbal supplements but for some reason it's all come back. I think it's because I've...
Aloe Vera Juice works like a charm. You can get it at CVS or any vitamin store, whole foods. You can take it every day to keep you regular and you can drink as much as needed....
Thanks JoAnn, guess all I can do is wait and see what the CT Scan says....
I know alot of people have talked about their Gallbladder, or had it removed. I have b een having pain at the top of my stomach on both sides. (not in the middle) I have a CT Scan scheduled for...
Doxy only caused me to herx neuro wise. BUT if you have a symptom and it gets worse... that is herxing.... So it's a good sign! Detox baths are the best thing you can do. The Epsom Salt also reduces...
It can be so overwhelming especially if you do alot of research like I did. I was diagnosed Aug 09 and the road has been rough however I am finally feeling better. I have bad days still but nothing...
I have the same rash, exact same spots. Weird that its only forearm and not the whole arm and only above ankles huh? No one has been able to tell me what it is. They also guess psoriasis. Mine...
Is your son on a probiotic? My baby is on a probiotic that is in powder form, so I just throw it in his cup and shake it up. Also L-glutamine works best on an empty stomach, is this how he's taking...
kwicherbichen- what are the signs your 17 month old is showing? I have a 20 month old, who I also breastfed. We tested him and he was negative, but we all know you can't trust tests. I'm just...
I saw this on the news today. I gave my toddler Motrin for the 1st time last week!!!!!!!!!!! UGH!...

I went to my GP today because I've been having stomach pain. I told her I was positive for Q fever and she said she never heard of it. So she goes out and asks another doc and they said oh that its...
Lowe's has the filter for your shower head and it is 19.99. I couldn't afford both the bath and shower filter, so when I do my detox baths, I turn on the shower and let it fill up that way. :)...
it says 1:32. I didn't realize that Q fever could be chronic. Great! Just another thing to add to my list!...
ok I found it. It says Phase 1. anyone know what M pneumoniae IGM Abs is? I show a low positive for that. Bucci- no it is just called Q fever....
My bloodwork does not mention any phases, unless I am looking in the wrong place? I mean it clearly should state phase 1 or phase 2?...
When you google IRT or ACT reviews you get NO results. none. Also, don't you think if this was in fact true, that we would hear about it? I am a member of a few different Lyme Forums and not once has...
I had read about this also on that site. I think it's very interesting, but would like to actually talk to someone who has tried it....

I recently tested positive for Q fever also. Mine was 1:32. I live in PA and see an LLMD in Kennett Square. He said he treats Q fever the same as he treats Lyme. I have only been seeing him for a...
I have the red patches all over my legs and arms. Nothing has made them lessen, they don't itch, but they sure are ugly. I have only shown positive for Lyme and Q fever. My Doc re tests me every 6...
This happened to me with another drug. Although i am not familiar with zithromax, I was able to call my insurance company and ask them for drugs that were similar to what I was prescribed that were...
I agree Udo's is the best. I can't afford that brand, and found that PB-8 is also a very good probiotic that is somewhat cheaper. If you can afford the Udo's brand I would go for that. There are 2...

I am not far from this treatment center. I've never heard of it though. It states on it's page... "In our experience, we consistently cure 88% of our patients within 2 months." This is one of those...
I don't remember where in PA you are, but I have a great Lyme Doc in Chester County if you need his info....
Are you on a good probiotic? That is key especially since you take both bc pills and an antibiotic. Also another thing to consider is, I'm pretty sure you and your partnership could be passing the...
nefferdun - my neuro symptoms are almost completely gone and I have only been taking diflucan. I do of course have my days, but overall it's gone. I do take Cefidiner when I feel I am herxing....
Chantal - I know you said that Diflucan hurt your liver, but I've been on it a few months and my liver enzymes are checked every 6 weeks and they are fine. Also I mentioned it to my Doctor and all of...
My Doc is in Kennett Square, he is great. I considered not going back because of cost, but I went anyway and it just reminded me of how great a doc he is. He listens to you and takes LOTS of time...
Wow that explains alot for me! I rarely drink but had a glass of wine on Christmas, and had stomach pain, then I had a half a glass last night until the pain got so bad in my stomach, I had to head...
hope - are you taking a good probiotic?...
You can search healing well up at the top of the page, but not specific to the Lyme forum....
There are pedal exercisers that you just put in front of your chair, that might be easier for those of us who have trouble walking on a treadmill. Here's a description: A Pedal exerciser is a perfect...
I don't have Bartonella, but I have had Lyme rage and on those days, no it doesn't dawn on me to do an affirmation, however I feel by putting the information out there for others it may help them. It...
Ohhh Dowa is right! I now remember drinking that when I was pregnant, it's yummy too!!...
Congrats!! Peppermint tea helps too, if you don't like ginger!...
Good for you!!!! I absolutely agree with you, and anyone can create positive affirmations for anything they are going through whether it's health, weight loss, anxiety, etc... Here are a few for...
This does sound like Bells Palsy, i had this, as did my best friend who has Lyme, and my Aunt. The only thing that took it away was antibiotics, if you don't get on antibiotics I want to warn you...
I take Omnicef too. I took it for 4 weeks then realized I'm only supposed to take it when I am having bad days/herxing. I have never had bloody stools until last week and I had severe stomach pain...
Sorry, I was without internet. It seems that after I eat my stomach gets bloated and then I have pain. And not the kind of pain like I need to have a bowel movement. I did not call the doc against...
Sorry if this is TMI... I have been having severe stomach pain today. I had my normal morning bowel movement. Had my herbal tea. Ate my normal sausage and eggs. Did my detox bath and it started while...

Saw my LLMD today, apparently I have Q fever. He said it's a close friend of Rocky Mt Spotted Fever. And I'm still testing positive for Lyme, my Vitamin D is still low and my Thyroid is not up to...
I stopped taking Doxy after about 8 weeks or so because I was not improving. I'm now on Fluconazole and Cefidinir and have felt much better, no sleep or GI issues. Nausea here and there, but that's...
