Yeah, in fact I'm pretty sure it will equal a rougher road with more herx'ing rather than less. I don't seem to have a whole lot of options right now and it's kinda like trying to decide who to vote...
Ok, let's see if this works...trying to quote and reply to everyone... lol Gah! It's infuriating that money comes between people and getting the care they so need! Can I ask what effects the...
I should have just typed 'Help, I'm a mess that's likely a lost cause!'. So many questions, still so overwhelmed and frustrated and still not seeing how I'm going to get through this. So far I've had...
From my understanding there are not any Lyme friendly PCP's anywhere in WA or OR! I'll keep digging but this whole thing is beyond ridiculous. I can't understand the how, why, when. where or any...
I would highly recommend at least an eye exam to check your pressures. Some eye issues are easily treated if caught early and I learned that by waiting to get my eyes checked out and am now legally...
I literally just tested positive for EBV but as for what to do, so far I have no clue. I can't take antivirals but my ND wants me to start Monolaurin 300mg once a day and build up to 900mg 3x a day!...
The book is free, the shipping is not :-p lol...
I put browned butter on my popcorn and it's super yummy! You'll have to try it sometime. I also use Johnny's Seasoning Salt (with the pepper strained out, yes I am that weird! lol) on it but shhhh...
Just thought I'd post this in case anyone was interested. Because May is Lyme Awareness month, Dr. Rawls is offering his book "Unlocking Lyme" free to anyone with $4.95 for shipping which is a pretty...
I just got more test results and it appears that the strain of yeast I've been fighting is Candida Lusitaniae and according to my doctor I also have Reactivated EBV. I'm a little confused though...
I had 5 cm hemorrhagic cyst rupture on me about a year and a half ago. Now I'm wondering if that was related. Long story but it ruptured before I could get in for surgery. You can ask for a CA-125...
Well, as long as you don't hurt anyone...it's okay to vent. What have you tried for it? Ok yes, that is very true and if there are homicidal tendencies or any danger to other living creatures then...
Thank you! I'm looking into getting those run asap!...
But isn't that going to get them sued? The one that's being discussed is for delayed diagnosis..right?[/quote] I have no idea...brain...does...not...compute lol...
She's a naturopath, not an MD so that's probably where the smart comes in. lol...
Fluconazole kills Lyme? Wait, could being on Fluconazole for 4 months before having my WB Lyme test run have affected it's outcome? I only had IgG bands 23 and 30 and IgM band 23 show up even though...
If I were to think logically, it makes a lot more sense that a pet transmitted an infection to a human rather than the other way around as they tend to have claws and have been known to bite while it...
My ND suspects I have this strain too, especially living in the Pacific NW but says she doesn't have a test for it specifically. Did you have a positive test for it and if so, what test was able to...
With so many affected by Lyme too exhausted and mentally scattered by the ravages of Lyme that it's a struggle just to make it through their day...the small number doesn't surprise me. How do we get...
Ah I see Girlie responded just before I did! I'm actually looking into doing the Igenex lab test myself to attempt to 'prove' to my MD's that I have it. Although do you know if MD's will believe a...
Best thing to do at that point I think would be find a Lyme Literate doctor or naturopath. I knew I'd have problems with my regular doctors so I searched to find someone in my area who has experience...
Alcohol is an antiseptic and commonly used as a disinfectant so it actually does kinda make sense that it could possibly help, right? Maybe those that feel worse afterwards are experiencing an...
I was wondering about something like this! But it worries me that it could make it even more difficult to get diagnosed and have the diagnosis be accepted because now doctors are going to worry about...
This was my greatest fear in starting treatment for these demon bugs! I expressed this concern to my doctor who suggested we start slow and at the very bottom with support for my body before even...
Thank you for having the strength and courage to post this. It's going to take more of us being vocal about the just plain wrong things we see in order for more positive changes to be able to happen!...
Well, as long as you don't hurt anyone...it's okay to vent. What have you tried for it?[/quote] Ok yes, that is very true and if there are homicidal tendencies or any danger to other living...
I also have blue eyes, am hyper-hypersensitive, have multiple infections making me super sick (currently bed bound) and am having a horrible time even starting anything for treatment. I also am 99%...
The problem with rage is that it isn't rational so rational advice is not going to help. It's like walking up to a toddler during a tantrum and telling him he isn't being rational and expecting him...
I just started taking Molybdenum as one of the first parts of treatment because I am so sick and sensitive. I only take 250mcg per day to start though. I had never heard of it before but as I've been...
It should be blasted in their faces for sure! Feel free to pass it along, quote it or send it to anyone anywhere anytime. I'm way too tired to figure out where to send it or look up addresses and it...
[i] [red] WARNING No holds barred...this rant is not for the feint of heart and I'm not trying to upset anyone! People with cancer*(see below) get all kinds of support. Everyone knows how awful...
Feeling the same and saw that the biggest cause of death from Lyme disease is actually suicide. I can understand why!...
Sauna's are way too hot for me and make me instantly miserable and sick. My doctor ran tests for mold and didn't pick anything up that concerned her. I don't think mold is anything I need to worry...
I don't think or think I know anything at this point! I am so thoroughly overwhelmed and confused at the mountains of conflicting information that I'm having a hard time just getting my eyes to...
I have a couple names for you in the Seattle area if you'd like them. Feel free to message me for them, however, I am pretty new to all of this as well and haven't even started my protocol yet (out...
Thank you so much for the replies. Just being able to read that there are those that understand and have some experience helps more than you know. Yes I have had several full thyroid panels that...
I thought something like Morgellons too but it doesn't fit. I don't feel them and the area I pulled them from was actually numb. Under a microscope, they definitely resemble worms (confirmed by...
I'm 44 and I've just been diagnosed with Lyme disease (Western blot: IgG P30 Ab Present Abnormal, IgG P23 Ab Present Abnormal, IgM P23 Ab. Present Abnormal and CD57 was low at 50) but also with...
