I have heard stories of people testing CDC negative for Lyme initially, but after ABX treatment, tested positive. Has this happened to anyone here? Is this common? What ABX were you taking and for...
Up until a few weeks ago, I was feeling alright. I was able to go to the gym and think relatively clearly. Three weeks ago, I started going into work more often, which coincided with me drinking a...
Sorry, I meant sudden onset intolerance....
Other than Lyme, what other conditions/diseases and lead to alcohol intolerance/delayed hangovers?...
I did the Aperiomics blood test in July, and did not test positive for any of the pathogens they cover. The test looks for foreign DNA in the plasma, not intracellularly. Also, the tests are better...
Why are people advocating CBD for Lyme if it is immunosuppressive? Seems like it would always lead to poor results....
It's certainly possible, but the symptoms are more in line with my babesia flares/herxes and I have never herxed from anything lyme specific, including bicillin, doxy, mino....
I believe that babesia is my biggest issue and have been hitting it hard for several months with coartem, clindamycin, primaquine, and herbals. I no longer really herx from treatments, except for...
Looks like each pill is 5,000 mcg. https://www.xymogen.com/formulas/products/276...
I am starting dapsone as well with the hopes of doing double dapsone regimen if I tolerate it well. Horowitz recommends 4 mthf es pills, 2x a day. Yes it’s a lot, but this is what he has found to...
Dr. H recommends MTHF ES from xymogen. What is your dosage for the dapsone?...
Astroman - what dosage of d-limonene do you take and can it be taken with other meds?...
Are these the same as premature ventricular contractions? I was having 25,000 a day, but since starting Hawthorne supplements, I have 0....
What are your symptoms? For me, babesia manifests as mostly cognitive issues and fatigue....
My doctor has given me the option to start on IV Rocephin. I would likely take it for a minimum of two months. I would love to hear from any members that have taken it, specifically: - Did you...
This sounds similar to what happened to me. My symptoms were somewhat mild, and then I started targeting babesia. I never herxed from medicine targeting lyme/bartonella, but anything targeting...
I had constant dissociation when first treating for Babesia and herxing from it - probably lasted around 2 months. From what I have read, dissociation can be either bart or babs, but from my...
I have started to randomly get hives on the back of my elbows, front of knees, and on one hip. When the hives appear, the area becomes incredibly itchy. In the past I have had eczema, which is a rash...
Ally told my friend that she attributed her current health to Dr. M and Dr. S in NY (both openly treatment Lyme so can write names). Both follow German/Swiss protocol but can charge upwards of $50k....
How did you fare on the IV treatment and how long were you on it? Did it eliminate any symptoms?...
I get the exact same herx symptoms as you gabybee. Honestly, sleep is the only thing that really helps me. If the herx is terrible, I generally just chalk up the rest of the day, watch a movie, eat a...
I have been having a strange symptom for the past three months. I am working now, and every time I have a face to face meeting which requires a lot of focus, I inevitably crash afterwards with...
Do you mean 4 pills at a time or 4 pills per day?...
Hawthorn is a miracle. I was having 25,000 skipped beats per day (PVCs), and now that I am on Hawthorn, I am maybe in the 1,000-2,000 range. Beta blockers and the other prescriptions didn't do...
Just added it in today at rec of my LLMD. These are the only two Jernigan's formulas I am taking....
Just started these today and am unreasonably exhausted right now, although my brain fog seems to have lessened. Has anyone had similar experiences. How long does it last?...
magoo - thanks for the response! Are you feeling better than before? Are you able to tell which infections it hit of yours (if some better than others)?...
Do you mean that healing bartonella has helped, or stopping bartonella treatment allowed you to heal your gut?...
Magoo - How effective did you find 10 pass when you tried it earlier this year? Do you think concurrently performing home insulflation is necessary?...
I only have had a handful of episodes of night sweats and air hunger, so I wouldn't consider mine typical either. I did mepron with azithromycin for 2 months, but do not think it did much as I...
For borrelia, it seems that some people herx indefinitely without seeing improvement. However, from anecdotes I have found here and other forums, it seems that most people who find a babesia medicine...
I have the head pressure, eye discomfort, fatigue, un-refreshing sleep, and the intoxicated feeling, and these are all exaggerated by babesia meds for me. I have also tested positive for babesia, so...
Since I began the lyme diet in July, I am down 25 pounds. Between the limited eating windows due to taking medicine and not eating dairy/most carbs/sugar/alcohol, I can't stop losing weight no matter...
Whenever I take cholestyramine or activated charcoal at night, I end up sleeping 2 more hours than usual and wake up exhausted. Does anyone know what this may indicate?...
Has anyone been here and seen Dr. M? Please let me know if you know anything about the clinic and if you would recommend. Thanks!...
Did anything help with the herx? The only thing that helps me is sauna. Alka seltzer gold, burnur-pinella, and binders don't seem to do much....
Girlie - thanks for your response. What did your herx symptoms consist of? I did not react to mepron (5ml 2x day), but react somewhat to malarone now (3 pills 2x day)....
I have tried to start CSA twice in the past, but was unable to continue due to the incredible herxing. I experienced extreme malaise, exhaustion, derealization, and brain fog. I now feel as though I...
Has anyone been here? I am surprised that there is no mention of it in past threads. This is the place that Ally Hilfiger credits to putting her lyme in remission, and is a hotspot for other...
I just received recent blood work back and was positive for ANA (no titer was shown) and positive for anti-chromatin antibodies (value of 1.2 while cutoff is .9). I have not had this on earlier...
I have been treating for a few months now, but my immunoglobulin levels keep dropping. Here is the pattern from the past three tests: Immunoglobulin M, QN, Serum: 73-->63-->48 Immunoglobulin A:...
Thanks for the responses! I do not quite understand, what is different about 10 pass ozone? Is that what you did Rikky?...
KB69 - Did you herx from the initial lyme/bart treatment, or did the babesia interfere with any killing of the spirochete, and thus no herxing?...
I have been reading old posts about members who have tried UVBI, and it seemed to help just about everyone who tried it, at least to some degree. Does anyone here have experience, or know someone...
About a month ago, I was put on cipro for 5 days due to colitis unrelated to lyme. Two days after I started, I had zero of my lyme symptoms, but attributed this to the fact that the colitis was...
Haha I'm glad that we could come to a consensus! Not! Thank you for all of the feedback. Gabybee and to everyone - I am now quite sure that most of my current issues, other than PVCs, are due to...
1000Daisies - How long did it take you to knock back the fungus?...
It's too early to say but I have definitely reacted to oil of oregano, olive leaf extract, and apple cider vinegar. Throne Research claims that SF722 is 6x the strength of caprylic acid, but I do not...
I am starting to treat candida aggressively as well. Diflucan wasn't working well enough for me, so have been switched to itracanozole. Some supplements I have come across: Oil of oregano Olive leaf...
I currently take about 4-5 tsp per day of JK per Buhner core protocol. Would that normally provoke it??...
