Hi all! I have not been here for a long time. I just read this article and immediately thought of this forum. It addresses what it means to be "cured" in a very clear way. And shows there is hope....
Traveler!!! You will be so missed: your constant kindness, patience and willingness to help and listen!!! Blessings to you, dear Trav! And.. for what it is worth, I have always understood psoriasis...
Hi Moon, Hang in there, hon! Here is my two cents: 1. Absolutely get the metal fillings out by a biological dentist only. There is a payment plan called Care Credit that many practitioners have. I...
Trav, bbyou and wellbeautiful! yay! so good to hear your kind words. awww..love to all of you :)...
Hi All! I have not been on here in quite a while. Saw that a couple of people asked for an update, so here it is! Blessings and hellos to everyone!! Background: 46 year old single woman, with no...
Hi Kinerson, I am another one who has healed without abx. I also was diagnosed with CFS! Perry Fields is a good example of someone what was extrememly ill and healed without abx also. She now...
Hi there Yogi, Well, yes, sort of. Lyme thrives in a body that is toxic. Sugar is just not good for you. Refined white sugar especially. For one, it feeds candida, which is overgrown in most lyme...
hahah...just have to laugh at the "worst state" competition! I think I might win so far... ; ) I am in Idaho and have gone to BOTH Washington and Oregon to find doctors! (7 hours) We have absolutely...
awww Shabby. I get it. Have been there many times, too. Yes, part of the process as Trav. says......could be toxins of some sort or hormones going up and down. I have lovingly (not so lovingly)...
Shannon!..best to you, hon. Excited for you! Are you staying at Cresthill? You know they will take you wherver you want in the shuttle, including grocery stores. But maybe you are driving. :) I went...
Wow. so sorry to hear that he has it!!! :( I would like to add my story and another perspective: I was in a relationship for 7 years and my partner did not get lyme's disease. He was tested recently...
Lymer: my understanding is that arthritis is an inflammation issue. Are you taking anything for inflammation? Do you have an LL doc and have to talked to him/her about it? I just googled "lyme...
Hi Andy, Yes, adrenal issues are very common and I have been treated for low adrenal function for years. The plan is to eventually wean off the bio-identical cortisol that I am on. I recently asked...
O...
Kudos to you for reaching out! I have been there! we all have, I think. I am also about your age and have had symptoms for many years. So glad you have the possibility of getting into a good doc near...
andy: just skimmed the posts. I must also say you need a biological/natural dentist. yes, fluoride is very poisonous. So are amalgam (metal fillings). Part of my lyme treatment was that my LLdoc...
I cannot run like that. BUT have been doing oxygenating breathing exercises and cold showers and feel great! The exercises and cold therapy are from Wim Hof. (google for the breathing routine and...
Ditto on needing an LLMD or LLND. They can accurately diagnose you. It may take several tests put together. I had igenex and also blood sent to fry laboratories for a kind of photograph of blood...
yep, hope! lots of healings from Hansa, I can say as I have been there. Talked to lots of people first hand about their healing stories. I am doing way better with their treatment. Try searching this...
I think I should add that the H Clinic in Kansas where I went has seen thousands of lyme patients and does not treat with abx. They have good success. The book "Beating Lyme Disease" outlines what...
I agree with Traveler, that you can and should manage herxing. No need to herx all the time. either by decreasing meds/changing them and detoxing effectively. In fact, my docs treat so that herxing...
ditto: must find LLMD or LLND :) and do read the new to lyme section to learn about what tests are accurate for lyme. possibly you did not have the right kind of test if it was not a lyme literate...
For those interested in ccsvi: It is not well known in the standard medical community. if you ask a normal doc they will likely not know about it. it is relatively new, even in the lyme community. I...
ditto MarieLS. Not enough water can be a cause. B vitamins make my urine yellowish. A bladder infection can cause it. If you have any pain or burning then get this checked! Other vitamins can cause...
Lymer: an MRI. I had a two hour MRI that looks comprehensively at veins and blood flow. However, it was first suspected from a CRT scan.( Computerized Regulatory Thermography.) This showed abnormal...
I had the same thing! freaked me out. Took a short course of abx for a bad UTI. Nothing to worry about!! You will need to replenish gut flora, as I am sure you know. My tongue went back to normal...
The wryter: oh, sorry to hear that! It might be that after more detox so the liver is not so overloaded that the little bit of alcohol would be tolerated in the future. Great to add a...
CCSVI can cause head pressure (chronic cerebro-spinal venous insufficiency). I had this and had a meidical procedure to rectify it (open up the veins). The jugular veins were constricted due to the...
Molybdenum can help. I take it when doing yeast cleanses. The Candida throw of aldehydes that cause the hangover feeling. It is common in lyme patients. I also think the hangover can be from other...
That is a good question! I am way better using natural methods. Never have used abx. A cure natural cure story: Perry Fields. You can google her She is an olympic-quality athlete. She is now back to...
ditto Shabby! you rock, opugirl! :)...
bdoc: I would forget listening to the docs that are not lyme literate (as it looks like you are going to do!) In ...they just do not know about it. I and many others can attest to the incompetency....
Marie: wow, I do not know! I honestly do not know how to diagnose (or all the symptoms) except the way I had it done at Hansa via CRT...then it was confirmed with an MRI. Head pressure can be a...
Info on Neuro-Antitox II from the Jernigan Neutraceuticals Website: Neuro-Antitox II For information on Ammonia in the brain, click here Silphium: Breaks down Neuro-toxins; Anti-histamine, Anti...
I do all the detox you mentioned and also had neuro issues. I find the ioninc foot baths to be less intense than the sauna, so you I think your idea of doing colonics and foot baths is good for when...
concerned Mom, Please email me. Just click on my username. You know about the clinic in Kansas, right??? Nan...
Hi All, A couple of people asked about CCSVI on one of the threads, but I can't find it now! so here is some info I had the procedure done successfully in October. Just had a follow-up MRI showing...
great!!! so happy for you both....
Well said, Don! I think that the gist of your message can be applied to MANY therapies. Even if something is touted as a cure-all, and we know this is rarely, if ever the case for ANYTHING, does not...
Hi Ilexis, Yes, I had the CCSVI. Feel free to email me about it. I just had the 4 month check-up MRI and it was great. The veins remain unblocked and flowing properly. I think it was significant to...
ditto traveler! Fatigue has been my main symptom. Please remember that the whole body is in disarray due to chronic lyme, and while some supplements may help, likely the whole body needs to get...
backtoturf: thanks for the updates! Hang in there. Hoping also for some symptom relief for her soon! threeputt: I believe it is $8400 inclusive of medicines, Dr. visits and therapies for two weeks....
Hi Shannon! Do keep us posted if you go! As you likely know, I am one that has been helped by Hansa. Am still doing treatment and loads better. I also tested positive for h pylori (Dr. J found it)...
Hi concernedmom. I hear you and your concerns! There was a thread on this sight where people listed the people then knew that got better...I am sure there were some who took abx. on it. you might...
blessings to you both! thinking of you.......

Hi Once... Good luck! you are right about needing an LLDoc. If you are not getting response, you might try putting in the subject Line "LLMD needed near Atlanta". That way more people may see it. And...

Cat: right. epilepsy describes a symptom really, right? does it even include a cause? It seems many things that are labeled "diseases" are really descriptors of a symptom. Like CFS, Fibromyalgia....
Anyone try this or hear of it? Breathing and cold therapy you can do at home to increase immune system function. I really like that there have been and are continuing to be testing showing results. I...
