Right now I'm taking Benicar (for inflammation) 20MG three times a day, Mino 25MG every other day, my max was 100MG. clindamycin 150MG every other day. I will probably drop my Clindamycin completely...
After my Dr bailed or rescheduled me the past few months I debated on starting a new protocol or just stopping treatment all together. After a month of doing research something else occurred. For the...
I've always had problems with acid refulx but after Lyme it turned into GERD. I take prilosec every day. Prilosec is not supposed to be taken long term but it's the only thing I can find to keep the...
Hi Walkingbyfaith. I have pain in that area of my body a lot when I'm herxing. My dr said it's due to inflammation. Have you tried detoxing?...
Ok thanks...
Girlie just sent you an email....
Ok Lyme friends. I had my monthly dr visit with the dr that drains my lymphatic system. I’ve been going to him for almost 4 years. He still has no clue where I live in Oklahoma. The nurse asks me...
Hi alunke82 I took CBC oil for about a month. You were to start with 5 drops twice a day and work up to 20 drops twice a day I made it to 10 drops twice a day. Couldn’t afford to do 20 but the drops...
Hi NicHostetler, can I ask if you take magnesium? That seemed to always give me loose stool. I switched to magnesium chelate and you can take as much as you need and it will not give you loose stool....
I agree. if it works well then my Dr. can share that with others. No difference in nails and no cravings. My hands and feet are constantly cold, I have issues with catching my breath, fatigue and...
Hi LymeSick No I have not been tested. Not a vegan either. I thought about iron supplements and I may give it a go. I've read that some people herx off of taking iron....
My dr has me do blood work every three months. Since January of 2017 my MCH, MCV, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit have been on a steady decline. My Protein and Albumin were also below range. I've looked up...
I've been popping acid reducers all day. Stomach is still burning and cramping. Hurts around to my back too. I've eaten bland all day. Not sure what else to do except go to the dr if it doesn't let...
mpost, thanks for the info. "your stomach looks weird" never a good thing to hear from a dr. I'll try some over the counter stuff along with my pepcid, see if that does the trick. Try to stick to...
The last few mornings I have woke up with pain and a burning sensation in my stomach. Light cramping and belching most of the morning. I've been on prescription pepcid for years due to acid reflux...
Wow this is a lot of info to take in. Julymorning: Yes I'm on mino, zith, clynd and benicar. My dr is treating me for chronic inflammation. I've been adding beans to my meals in place of meat. I'm...
Since I stared blood work in 2015 my cholesterol has been in the 250-260 range as well as high triglycerides. I don't eat a lot of red meat and I try not to eat fast food if I don't have to. I know...
My mother in law was just diagnosed with Invasive ductal carcinoma Grade 3.. she is also a triple negative. She is 69 years old. She is having a PET scan soon and will have her port put in at the end...
Thanks Girlie. I'm pretty sure I know who that is and that person bailed on me when I had my first major herx. Sent me right back to my regular dr. I asked the dr I'm seeing now about the length of...
bump...
I'm almost into my 3rd year of treatment following something seminar to the Marshall protocol. In some ways I feel better but still have pain daily along with brain fog. I'm able to work but I'm not...
I'm sorry LongJourney that you have to do such an aggressive treatment. I pray it goes well and it kills them buggers!...
Must be awful to know that you are going to feel bad on a specific day. I'm sorry you have to deal with that. Mine are usually Wednesday's. After two days of work my body wants a rest. I hope you are...
bluelyme, yes I'm in the states. Oklahoma to be specific. My vitamin D levels were opposite of each other so I'm assuming that is why he started me on that protocol. Thank you for all the warm...
I'm sorry to hear that julymorning. I've heard of RMSF causing permanent damage. hugs for you. Looks like you have been fighting this a long time. Ah blueberrymuffin, my favorite! No yeast issues...
Thanks mm, I'm working on my diet. I can honestly say that is the hardest part of getting well. I'm pretty good at staying away from sugar but the carbs are my downfall. Still a work in progress....
Thanks Julymorning. I tested positive for RMSF but I never had any of the symptoms. No flu or odd rash. I'm not taking more than 100mg of any of my abx so I really don't detox much. If I'm feeling...
I've been reading post after post of everyone's symptoms and issues and it makes me sad but also glad I'm not alone. I was on a previous forum and when I would ask about a symptom, no one else had...
Dmw52, that is great your dr did that. Mr. Dr said because my 1,25-D level was so high that the benicar would work for me. He's treating me for chronic inflammatory disease. It's similar to the...
I did not notice improvement after I got mine out. I had one gallbladder attack and that was enough for me. Do you have stones?? Mine just quit working. My Dr said it's very common for people with...
Sorry to hear you are having your gallbladder removed. I also had mine removed while in treatment. It's crazy how such a little organ can cause so much pain and discomfort. They pump you full of air...
I've been using Benicar for chronic inflammation for two years. I do not have a problem with high blood pressure. I did have to watch my blood pressure when I first started taking it because it would...
