Sure 1/2 tsp Japanese Knottweed and 1/4 tsp curcumin extract (powdered both), 2xs daily. 6 days on 1 day off. Mix in hot tea with 2 Tbls honey. 1 Tbls Raw honey daily. 1 month on, 1 week off...
Rifampin, doxy and mino and bactrim. My doctor used a combination of two of them at all times. One of them made me very agitated, like crazy person agitated, so we had to stop using that. In general...
My heart goes out to you, so sorry you have to endure this, but hang in there. Our Lord watches over us, and you. Healing takes time and you have to be consistent. I've been using japanese knotweed...
So it's been awhile and I wanted to update the thread some more. I know i really pushed the gou in my earlier thread, but I've since learned that it was the knotweed doing most of the work. I think...
After almost one year of antibiotics, my md gave me the green light to stop taking them. I've been off abx for 3 weeks with no return of symptoms. Currently still using herbs and rebuilding my gut....
I seem to be on the other side of it for some time. My MD asserts the depression comes primarily from inflammation, but my ND seems to feel it was caused by the serotonin breakdown pathway going...
Yes, they're out there. Probably not on these boards though.i can only share from my own story, but I've been in treatment for almost three years. I started slowly and gradually built up. It was two...
Sorry for the late responses, I’ll try and stay checked in. A. Girlie, it was the neuro basic with the Siphiltrim. Yes, MD in Seattle says it usually takes about that long, then it’s not eradicated,...
This is an old thread but how in the world can active lyme be in a freeze dried pill? I mean are we talking cysts that have curled up and are surviving? I just want to know the science behind...
Many people have asked that I keep posting how it’s going since starting ABX 6 months ago. Well, I’m still doing well with the treatment and feeling better on a weekly basis. A few weeks ago, the...
I was on a course of mino and it seemed to work well, but we had to switch after 45 days cause it was building up around my nerves. I was switched to another antibiotic. IMHO, you need more than one...
Neuro Lyme is a big suck for sure. I can only speak for myself in that I had sudden onset neuro symptoms and gritted through it for years before beginning treatment. I started with Japanese knotweed...
I agree with previous posts...I would find a more lyme literate ND. IMHO, CC won’t touch it without a lot more. I was on a crazy herbal cocktail for months, sometimes alternating upwards of 6 or 7...
Looking4acure..... Not sure about the wierd encounter, do you mean with a doctor? A tic? A human being? From what I understand, lyme is spread 3 ways: Bite from an insect, in utero, or sexually. I...
Lookimg4acure, I cant say when my symptoms started for sure, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say I might have been exposed to lyme in utero....if not, I’m pretty sure I contracted it sexually...
I used a brand I got on amazon...nongs. it's concentrated granules....I'm no longer taking it but I think it really helped. Good luck...
I wanted to update the group and throw some things out there for anyone who has been on the fence about antibiotics. I started treatment with herbs a year and half ago, but 3 mos ago, I felt like I...
For me, Knotweed was the best. It really stopped some of my neuro symptoms ad I felt like it was protecting my brain more. I herxed more on CC as well....
Orange pee for sure. I've been on it almost 75 days now. I had developed a very itchy ummmmm, well you know in the back parts there, so my doc got me on an antifungal and cleared it right up. I now...
I was on a bart protocol for the better half of a year and didn't make too much progress, so it hit the bart in the junk with ABX. My MD feels that bart is a minimum 4 - 6 months with ABX, so I would...
I went dark a few times after my symptoms got out oh hand, lately I've been finding more information that suggests depression and anxiety come from inflammation and not chemical imbalances. It took...
Still tolerating the ABX. I did have to start Flucanozole due to some severe intestinal issues, but after 7 days on it, I'm feeling normal again. My brain is actually starting to feel somewhat normal...
I'm almost two months into ABX, but I'm a year into my herbal treatment. I started feeling better after a month but my symptoms are still hanging around. Two months in and I started having some...
Gou-Teng is the Wu Tang of neuro herbs. For me, it really helped was the raging glutamate storms and inflammation, without making me anxious or paranoid. Buhner's dosages really seemed to work for me....
Where did you find that protocol, I'd like to know more about it....
Panic attacks from Lyme are very different than your standard 10 minute panic attack. Went through it for a year before I recognized it had anything to do with an infection. My MD feels it comes from...
Sorry you're going through a tough time. I would start at the "New to Lyme". Reading that could answer many of your questions. I will say that it's holistic road to beat chronic Lyme and co...
Thanks for all the input, I'm starting to have some signs of yeast, but I am upping the probiotics to 100 bill as well as natural saurkraut. So far so good, still moving forward on rifampin, biaxin...
Hey all, just wanted to keep everyone updated. I'm just oover 30 days into my abx treatment and I almost feel normal again. Well maybe not in energy or stamina but my neuro symptoms are like 75 to...
Thanks for the replies, yes it looks like all is on point for now. We'll see how I feel in 3 weeks, if it's Bart, the neuro symptoms should be clearing up by then. The Lyme part will take longer, but...
Mine starts in my solar plexus, then spreads. Not much heart rate now since I've learned to breathe but it just keeps on firing. I think mine is related to histamine or food intolerances, gluten...
Hey all, I saw DR MR in Seattle last month and have my next appointment with him today. Anyway, he confirmed my Lyme diagnoses and also suspected Bart, so I started the ABX bart of mino and rifampin....
2 days of D vitamins and I feel absolutely horrible. It seems to exascerbate the symptoms, but perhaps its a herx? IDK...
A few posted on another thread about DrK and DrMR in the NW. I am currently recovering from neuro lyme and bart. I've been treating strictly herbal up to this point. Anyone use one of these Drs and...
Thank you all, it's really reassuring and I can't tell you how much I need support. I am going. To see Dr MR, and chose him because he was in support of ABX, but it seems like many of you endorse K....
So I'll give the quick version of my story here. I'm a fit male with no history of mental illness. In 2012 I ran a Tough Mudder race and developed a rash on my forearm a few days later. The rash...
Been there, Lyme anxiety is differently than anything else because it doesn't want to go away, even when there is nothing you are being exposed to. So here's what got me moving forward: Japanese...
