Thank you, I skimmed through the posts and am going to read them more in depth but I just wanted to address the testing first. I'm open to the possibility that my lyme doctor may be wrong but I want...
So I finally paid the $1,000 for the new lyme and co test with an EBV panel as well. My doctor says that after 5 years of on and off treatment I no longer have an active infection and my remaining...
Does anybody have flu like herx symptoms? I just had a breakdown. Tuesday I was out sick I thought I had COVID - body burning, hot head (but no actual fever), headache, dizzyness, fatigue, etc. I...
Thanks again, I actually have bromelain upstairs and quercetin has been recommended to me by my doctor as part of an anti-viral protocol. I do take turmeric extract sometimes. All of this is a little...
Girle - I definitely have a lot of fillings - I seem to have poor genetics so whether it's cavities or physical injuries like shoulder or knee injuries from sports or detoxing from lyme I seem to be...
I just ordered the LOLA, I’ll let you know how it works. It seems really promising. Does you brain fog also come in the “head pressure” variety? Mine does and when it’s really bad I can’t wear a hat...
Thank you CalmLittleBuddha, I'm sorry you have to deal with the depersonalization - how is yours these days? Do you have bartonella? I'm feeling a little better than this morning and have been able...
Thank you for the response bluelyme - I'm feeling a little better from this morning and now am just feeling regular bad instead of end of the world bad. I've taken Holy Basil before and liked it,...
Looking for some support here, and maybe advice. Diagnosed in 2015 I think (check signature) probably infected in 2005 or something. Treated for a couple years and got better but not better enough....
I am on DS. I worked my way up to 100mg and was getting symptoms and my doctor had me take a week off and been on 50mg for a while. I took another 10 days off and am back on 50mg for a week or so...
Shoot I'm sorry I actually found it. It's called Frequency Specific Microcurrent. Now that I have the thread does anybody else have any experience with it?...
Hey, I have a weird question. Does anybody remember what the type of treatment is called where they put electric pads on your body and then they put low amount of electricity and different...
Does anybody else get emotional disconnection/deadening? I'm pretty sure my relationship just ended tonight. Seemed to be the same pattern that I've been in for the last number of years. I was too...
Bluebird Botanicals...
Are you all using distilled water for the BW tinctures? I am "taking" A-bart, a-bab, and A-L complex but have been using tap water for all of them. I heard you are supposed to be using distilled....
Girlie - thanks for the quick response. My intuition says I have adrenal fatigue and candida and the major thing I have learned from Lyme is that I should listen to no one above myself. The treatment...
Okay I'm confused. I got my adrenal tests back and although my morning and night levels were slightly elevated (above the normal range) my doctor said it isn't "so called" adrenal fatigue. But then...
Thank you everybody. Denikeef - it doesn't seem to matter which shift I am on because if I am in the morning shift I will fall asleep and if I am on the evening shift I will fall asleep on the way...
Does anybody else get this? For the past couple of months I have been nodding off at the wheel both ways on the way to work. My commute can be up to an hour long depending on traffic and I can never...
Krimpet - I have been treated for lyme, bart, and babs, and have been on herbals for only a year. Don't know if the PANDAS was caused my lyme or if it was there before. Need to talk to my doctor...
My LLMD is in a conference somewhere in Virginia. I have been treating lyme for a year and a half now and made progress for the first 6 months and have been stalled since then. My doctor ran a test...
Thank you very much for your offer Traveler. I passed the offer along to my (now-ex) girlfriend and she was considering it. That was incredibly generous of you and I think would have been very...
I'm sorry to hear that lymeassassin - I can't imagine how difficult that must have been. I hope you're doing a little bit better now. Also Traveler, I'm sorry you and your husband had many of the...
Rowingmom - yes, I likely have bartonella and am being treated for it with the Byron-White formulas. Maybe that is why the anger has gotten worse? Now that I think about it the time when the anger...
Hey everyone, I haven't been posting much recently. Treatment has been hard and life has been harder. Lately my anger has gotten out of control. I am in a relationship with somebody, we have been...
DaveNJ41 - I use Bluebird for my CBD and that is what my doctor now recommends for all of his patients (after I told him about it, haha - I want some credit!). They keep lowering their prices and...
Fellow lyme patient in the twin cities. I have a list of 5 llmd's (I know at least 2 aren't accepting new patients, but hopefully the list will still be helpful). Please send me an e-mail (link...
Hey dolph, sorry that you're going through this. I go through the exact same things every day. Even had a full on out of body experience from the depersonalization. Haven't felt fully in my body in...
Alright everybody, I have been lurking the forums but haven't posted much recently. I just wanted to give a quick update to how my treatment is going. I have been on metronidazole,...
Agreed, now just throw in some more severe neuro-lyme stuff and really give the readers their moneys worth....
I've been taking kratom since 2010 for lyme related pain. I have eaten literally pounds of it from numerous different sources and have done a decent amount of research so let me know if anybody needs...
Signed....
Wow thanks for posting that pdf deejavu, that was one of the most informative lyme links that I've read yet. The Neuroantitox II sounds really great. My issues are primarily cognitive but I think I...
This is an interesting thread. I am a 24 year old male and have had lyme for about 8 years. I have only had one serious relationship and that ended I think 3 years ago and I haven't dated anybody...
I am 24 years old and just graduated college. Was sick all throughout college. Lyme (didn't know what it was at the time) made me drop out of school and try to check myself into a mental hospital. I...
My LLMD has me on 50mg CBD daily. I jumped right into that but you might want to work your way up to whatever dose you end up at....
Minnesota...
Girlie - that's what I'm thinking too. I'm going to the Boundary Waters (Minnesota) for a week long canoe trip in May and I figured that since I'll still be on abx that the risk for reinfection will...
Sorry that you're not getting good results from this Frank. I haven't noticed too many benefits from it either yet but I feel like it's doing something. I also haven't noticed too much improvement...
Sorry that you're going through this. My symptoms too are less focused on physical pain and more on the cognitive aspects. Depersonalization is the worst one for me as well. I was able to graduate...
I have been taking 50mg a day for about 3 weeks now. It's hard to say how I'm doing on it. It's definitely doing something, I think it's killing some of those little buggers. Definitely herxed off of...
Glad to hear that Heather is doing better! I really enjoyed your post, very descriptive and informative. Mold is scary stuff!...
It sounds like lyme stuff to me, and especially since you for sure had it in the past and didn't receive sufficient treatment. You should find a lyme literate medical doctor and get tested through...
Sorry for the delay, check your E-mail and let me know if you have any questions!...
Congratulations Chapelle! That's wonderful news! Weird on the depressed CD 57 level but everything else looks great, make sure you still stop by the forums every once in a while!...
Thanks for those links sarahm620, very helpful! I think I might have Babs and maybe even Bart according to those websites. I'm going to do a symptom check-list and bring them up at my next LLMD...
Good news, I'm a fellow Lymie from Minnesota. I have a list of 5 LLMD's in the area. If you enable your E-mail address I can send you the list. Good luck with the potential move Tim! Bryan...
Glad to hear it IHL, that's a great attitude! Very inspiring....
Dang, I just got a root canal a couple of months ago! I've also had a decent amount of fillings, but I'm not sure how many of them are mercury. I'll have to check. Scary article! Very informative...
Just to let everybody know there is a 35% off sale today (and it says through February 1st so maybe tomorrow as well) with the coupon code bp6x at bluebird-botanicals. Once again, I'm not affiliated...
