My wife got an IND 31 on IGM and +41. She got the epitope and it came back positive. We are skeptical. She has improved significantly just taking plaquenil and no antibiotics, herbs or supplements....
Once you pass a certain add/drop date in the semester you will not be able to get refunded. Best to talk with your enrollment office. If you provide them with a docs note maybe they will let you drop...
Hi Rikky1, I don't have much helpful input, but when you say "swollen lymph nodes," what does that mean? Are your lymph nodes visibly swollen? I see that mentioned frequently as a symptom, but I've...
Not all ILADS doctors are equal. Suggest finding a new doc....
MDL is another lab. lymemd seems to prefer this lab over others because instead of just reporting positive or negative, MDL shows a photo with the intensity of the bands that have some reactivity to...

On last follow-up, her llmd wasn't sure if we're dealing with Lyme given the lack of response to abx, hence repeat tests. I want to know if we're dealing with Lyme, in which case will continue with...
Igenex will not do the Epitope on 31 if it's IND. I asked. My wife has 31 IND and they said no. I am in a similar situation as k07. My wife has been taking abx and herbals since Sept and not...
If it were my wife, I would have her trial abx for a month and get a Western Blot with full co-infection panel through Igenex for added peace of mind....
My wife takes a leveled spoonful of the powder, mixes with 4oz of water and holds/swishes in her mouth for 15 minutes, and then swallows. She does this three times daily. I believe that is what is...
Hi Traveler - My wife doxes with FIR saunas a few times a week, cucumber water, burbur, parsley and most recently pinella. If it's a result of new meds (amoxi), that would be news to her. She...
Hi all, My wife's LLMD had her on doxy, rifampin and biaxin for the month of Dec. Was on just doxy since Sept by another non-LLMD. She has tolerated both treatments well. She stopped late Dec to take...

Did any of you stop abx treatment or herb treatment when taking diflucan to treat yeast?...
Girlie - Lymemd has my wife taking all three every day together. In one of his early blog posts, he mentioned not finding pulsing effective with his patients....
Lymemd has my wife on rifampin + biaxin + amoxy, and diflucan for occasional yeast. Too early to tell if the combo has been doing anything, but I am glad that Lymemd keeps up on the latest research....
Done - Thanks Traveler!...
Hi - May I have the name of Dr. M. S., via IM or email? Always good to have a backup for my wife... thanks in advance!...
I will be interested to hear how you do on this protocol! My wife's LLMD has her on a similar abx - Amoxi two 500mg twice daily, Clarithomycin 500mg twice daily, but with Rifampin 300mg twice daily....
Hello - My wife's LLMD prescribed a methylprednisolone 4MG dose pack because she had a reaction to diflucan to treat a yeast issue (full body itching, blister-like rash on legs, redness everywhere)....
