I am very surprised not to see coffee enema's on anybody's list yet. I know a lot of people that swear by them, including myself. I do them daily, I get immediate relief from them. I realize that it...
@Bat03, I picked my Stevia up from my doctors office. He does a great job of stocking many herbal supplements. The brand is NutraMedix, it is a extract and in liquid form. From what I have read and...
So I had a appointment Tuesday with my LLMD. He told me about some new research using Stevia to combat Lyme. I have included a article to explain some of the details......
So is it a port like somebody doing treatments for Cancer would have. Or is it a "PIC Line" used by Lyme patents for daily ABX treatments? I only ask because I have had a PIC Line in for 4 months...
PeteZa, Yupp detoxing is king! I am doing several things, coffee enema's daily. twice a day on weekends, very affective for me. Lots of lemon water, Epsom salt baths. I was using a binder (Dr Morse's...
Hello all, It has been a while since my last post. (Bad Me.) I have been up and down, doing a combination of oral and natural antibiotics. I was actually doing just ok back in August. Started riding...
My experience with Dr Z has been good. He will not hesitate to send you to other people for specific treatment's. He recommended and sent me off for Ondamed treatments (Go to there website...
I am very sorry to hear you are going through this. I often describe it as "daily torture". I would recommend "Dr. Z", he is located in Romeo. He specializes in finding things other doctors miss. He...
Thanks Traveler! I actually was doing Epsom salt baths right after doing the Coffee enema's, maybe too much at once. Although I have not done the Epsom salt baths in over a week. I am thinking every...
So I have been doing coffee enema's for about three weeks now (once daily). They really seem to be helping, sometimes even a immediate relief. Two nights ago I seemed to have a Herx soon after doing...
Wow, thank goodness you figured it out. Stay strong!...
I am on a roller coaster ride as well. I fluctuate through out the day, it never gives me more than a few hours of a break....
From my experience I think taking a break is a good thing. I would highly suggest that you take advantage of the break. And do a liver detox, "Core restore" has a 7 day kit. You can buy it on Amazon....
That is a very informative article.....Thanks Utahgal!...
"A", I should of mentioned that I was already taking the Zithromax, So it was either the Mepron or the Artemisinin causing the new nasty Herx! Thanks for the reply!...
So I had a appointment this week with my LLMD. After treating me with various ABX over the last 4 months For "Lyme". He has now determined that I also have Babesia, This conclusion was derived from...
No one in this "family' is allowed to give up. even though it does not sound like you gave up. Taking a new path seems to be the right thing to do! Stay Strong and push on!...
Anxiety, Dizziness, brain fog.........
Simela1... I am not on any other abx, I was on Zithromax and Amox. The plan was to pulse back and forth with the Flagyl....
So I started using Flaygl (500mg daily) this week. First time on this abx. I have been severely Herxing since I started Flagyl! my LLMD told me to cut the dose in half. Any body else this affected...
Great post! I have had my Lyme symptoms for 14 months and no colds or flu for me neither. I always thought it was a little weird, but I never would of thought it was Lyme related. Thanks for sharing!...
Good deal! Being "The Captain of your own ship". It is empowering!...
Yes Taurine is over the counter, it is a amino acid. You can even buy it through Amazon....
Oh my...Yes! I remember trying to explain to friends about my symptoms. I would say "It does not care what time it is' it will yank me out of a dead sleep"! I really was not worried about anything...
OMG! I am so sorry, That was horrible. I am so glad to hear you are doing better! I have had a real hard time breathing these last few weeks, so I kind of relate. So did you have any issues with the...
I am currently in treatment also. It is to soon to tell though. I agree with Razzle, you cannot do the short cut version! I currently am cleared through the first 8 allergens. It is a long process I...
Do you mean Keego Harbor MI? The reason I ask, I had previously did a ILADS search in Michigan for a LLMD. I was actually checking to see if the Doctor that was already treating me landed on that...
Wondering161, Sorry to hear about your struggles, I understand completely. I am no expert, but from my readings and personal experience. 200 mg of Doxy is not a large enough daily dose to be...
"P"...... Yes, it does also feel like it is in my heart. With me it feels like my lung muscles are not working, along with tightness in the lungs and heart area. I try to pull air in and it just...
Utahgal, looks like you have had symptoms for 5 years and have been on treatment for 3 months. I had symptoms for 10 1/2 months and have been on ABX for 1 week short of 3 months. I am actually worse...
"K"...I have very similar symptoms. Plus it seems like I have a lot of inflammation in my lungs. Theses symptoms coincide with my change in antibiotics. Was on Doxy, now on Amoxicillin and Zithromax....
Thanks guys. Yes Today has been a much better day! Merry Christmas!...
So today, I had to go to the hospital for a blood draw. I was actually at the professional building across the street from the hospital. Due to all my heart symptom's I am seeing a cardiologist....
Hang in there IHL! One day at a time. Be thankful that you have good people in your life. Going through It alone would totally suck!...
That is really good to hear! You will be able to hold on to this day and recall it when you are having a bad day. I had a good day back in August, yes only one. I still think back to that day and it...
That is a great question! LOL. I have a dedicated kitchen cabinet that I store mine in. The irony is that in my "prior life", this cabinet had a different use. I stored all my natural performance...
Welcome Bowden! You have found a great place for information and comfort that you are not going through this alone. Stay strong and keep telling yourself, "I am going to beat this!!"...
Wouldn't it be nice if we could get a Lyme reprieve for the holidays. My girlfriend asked me the other day, "what do you want for Christmas"? Before I could answer se say's "And don't say your health...
OMG...I hope everything is OK. Let us know what happened. I personally feel that you should not hold back on telling the ER doc about your Lyme treatment. The more they hear and are exposed to it,...
Oh yaa, I was diagnosed first with Meniere's disease. 6 months before my Lyme diagnosis actually. The Lyme was there then, just not diagnosed. My Vertigo was both swaying and spinning, god awful at...
Wow Cheetahjade that looks fascinating! Not at all grossed-out. Thanks for sharing, I will look into it. Does somebody that does Acupuncture do this procedure? I do have a connection for a...
Traveler, SpyFischer...Thank you for your replies! I am adding some new things to my detoxing plan. I will first consult with my LLMD before putting them in place. One good thing, I do know the ABX...
I have had a horrible past 8 days or so, (including a emergency room visit). As of Wednesday my LLMD told me to stop my Doxy, giving me a one week "holiday'. He feels that I am Herxing, because my...
Oh, that is too funny! Have you ever spelled your acronym out on this forum, before today?...
What does IHL stand for? My money is on "I Have Lyme" or "I Hate Lyme". Inquiring minds would like to to know............. I sure hope that I am not putting my foot in my mouth. And those are your...
Fantastic! That is great news and encouraging news for the rest of us!...
Regardless of the discomfort, I would proceed with caution. I have been reading about the possibility of sexually transmitting Lyme. Food for thought....
Those are some scary blood pressure numbers. I do not know what co-infections I have. Have not tested for them yet. Calling my doctor first thing tomorrow morning!...
That sounds awesome! I have not indulged in a year, I sure do miss it! I worry about it making me worse and setting me back. You will need to report back and tells us how you feel today (the day...
Sorry I did not get back quicker, more on that in a minute. IHL-The heart monitor showed completely normal?? (Good I guess). So I took a turn for the worse yesterday, even after starting to feel...
