Even though these symptoms are ONLY from food? When I fast or eat very small meals with enzymes I do not have these issues. Could be. without the food.. you're giving your stomach a break...letting...
Even though these symptoms are ONLY from food? When I fast or eat very small meals with enzymes I do not have these issues....
I think it is possible but unlikely. My main symptoms were pain and numbness--neuro stuff. I had symptoms for almost two years before beginning treatment. The symptoms remained the same from...
Thanks for the excellent recommendations, everyone. I am on an anti-candida supplement, and I'm spending this month doing everything I can for leaky gut, like bone broth, collagen, glutamine, aloe,...
Hi everyone, I was on ABX for a full year--every form that you can think of. I'm doing much better now, mostly thanks to the fact that I eventually switched to herbs. The whole time I was on ABX my...
Thanks, astro. Just fats in general, I think, as avocado causes the same thing. Will look into thyroid if nothing else comes through. It's crazy because the dr. did a fecal fat test and it came back...
Thanks, girlie. I actually started a diet called AIP: autoimmune diet protocol. This is how I figured out that it was the fats, as I can only eat meat and most veg at the moment. I'm taking probiotic...
Hi everyone--haven't been here in quite some time. In my case this is a very good thing. For 3.5 years I have had random/migrating left side pain and other neuro issues. After seeing many docs I...
Organic alc. is available on amazon too at very high proofs....
I know that I get dizzy sometimes instantly sometimes a day later after eating gluten, eggs, or excessive fats. I don't know that I have leaky gut, but I have decided it's most likely what is...
https://www.etsy.com/shop/SusquehannApothecary Just ordered some from here. Baikal scullcap/red sage/gou teng are a trio that reduces my pain. I'm so much happier since I added these in. Highly...
Love this combo: great for reducing my pain....
Just put your phone on silent and hit record. Don't share the recording and destroy after you're done. No harm no foul....
Thanks to everyone who offered advice. Yes, I have also started taking larger doses since going solo, (red sage/scullcap, houttunyia, crypto, cat's claw, knotweed, andrographis, gou teng. The pain is...
Quick background: diagnosed via IGENIX for Bb, anaplasma, babs, and we're treating for bart just for fun. I took a wide variety of abx for a full year, and recently quit them because I felt like my...
Ashwagandha was very helpful for me....
Please do. I just ordered gou teng--65 bucks for a pint is very good. They said their ratios are roughly 1:2, so they also seem stronger than most....
Considering ordering from these guys. I know the owner had Lyme himself and studies Buhner. Buhner mentions that some herbalists do a decoction of gou teng in his Lyme book. Also, doing both a hot...
I have weak and tingly limbs, sometimes they are very heavy and awkward. Holding them in certain positions is very painful. Hard to lift above my head, sometimes they just feel really off. This has...
I went from carb/fruit/grain/sugar/caffeine-free to simply gluten and sugar free and I can't really tell a difference in how I feel. Though I think it was probably important early on, and now I've...
I already have APA. Should I take glutamine with it?...
After many months I am finally having herxes: old symptoms popping back up and a big increase of symptoms that are greatly reduced by drinking LOTS of water. Or maybe the water is just thinning my...
My girlfriend orders from them for her veterinary office. I can find out if you are interested....
I can see an oily sheen and bubbles in the bowl after going. Pre-treatment I had high bilirubin, and early in treatment I had elevated liver enzymes. However, I've had 100% normal tests for at least...
I always take my ABX on an empty stomach and have been for almost a year. However, my doc said I'm going to come off of them within two months, most likely. Hopefully I haven't done any damage to...
I trust Paul Stamets for all things fungal....
Can't wait for the day I can say "I told you so" to all the docs/folks that dismissed me....
Thanks all. Im also on cats claw, jkw, andrographis, houttniya, teasel, crypto, sida, microbinate--so I feel like it's pretty thorough. Just thought it was weird that I haven't seen anyone else do...
2weeks on then 2 off--...
Interesting thread. I have this exact dilemma because I added red root, mostly based on intuition and I read that it relieves left-sided pain, which is my main symptom. I discontinued it so I won't...
I see a lot of folks who pulse ABX, but none with my schedule. I do 2 weeks of rifampin twice a day, minocycline twice a day, tinidazole twice a day (3 days a week during my "on" weeks), Zithromax...
I'm taking the Green Dragon Botans and it's rockin my world...
When I became sick it was during a period of extreme self-loathing and abuse. For a long time I thought my symptoms were psychosomatic, so I took some mushrooms--it caused my symptoms to flare up...
Ive been having symptoms for two and a half years. I had a little knee pain for a while but it was fairly mild and went away for the most part before I even started treatment. Now, almost a year into...
Cant' tell that it's done anything for me. I was able to get to the max dose very quickly. Would still give it a go....
I take tulsi and dandelion root==-...
I have taken: doxy, minocycline, bactrim, zithromax, mepron, rifampin, tinidazole, biaxin....
I have been anxious and very irritable--before I began the herbs, though. However, ashwagandha, recommended by the B-man himself, has been a game changer. I feel like a different person. You may want...
Hi all, I have been infected for about 2.5 years, and treating for about one. I have gone through many oral ABX, and am currently pulsing 2 weeks on/off four different ones. When I first saw my LLMD...
I see Dr. M in Mclean, VA. I've been going almost a year and am feeling much better. S/he gives herbs and abx together and is overall a good doctor/value. If you provide your email I can give you...
I have no idea if 11 months of abx have done anything for me--they don't seem to have hurt, though. However, the herbs have had an immediate effect--especially ashwagandha and J. Knotweed. Wish I had...
Has anyone used this and found it superior to other methods?...
Anyone here swear by this stuff? About to order some maybe....
Thank you. What brand of red root did you use?...
Japanese Knotweed root - 500 mg. (Polygonum cuspidatum) - wildharvested - NE United States Cat's Claw vine bark - 500 mg. (Uncaria tomentosa) - wildharvested - Peru Andrographis herb - 430 mg....
I did no pulse for 4 - 5 months, then 1 week on/off, and now 2 weeks on/off, totaling about 9 months of oral ABX. No, I can't really tell a difference....

I'm pulsing oral right now: two weeks on/two weeks off. No idea if it's working. Minocycline, rifampin, azithromycin, tinidazole, artemisinin...
Okay I'm a little confused. I've been taking high levels of ABX and herbs with no issues or herxes. I recently switched from Banderol/Samento to the LB Core from Green dragon botanicals. It contains...
Banderol and Samento did nothing for me, but I just upped my dose of LB Core and I'm having crazy arthritis like never before! It's got to be a herx? Just wanted to say that the same thing is...
