Girlie, No it was initially the Fibro dr in the beginning. I’m finishing up antibiotics. Before I finish I’m going to add in Buhner herbs waiting on them to get here. I’ll keep physical therapy in...
Hi everyone, basic update, I’m going to be working on adding in Buhner herbs. Luckily I have a background in herbs so it’ll help. I’ll be finishing antibiotics in the next week and a half. Still...
Thanks for posting the difference!...
I clean mine with pure vinegar but in all honesty I rarely use it. But now I’m actually thinking of dumping it. Even if we clean it I’m unsure it’ll stay clean. Update: took a few swabs just to the...
Picot is a ethnic no aspirin like alka seltzer usually available at Walmart. It’s 1.9485 g citric acid sodium bicarbonate 2.4850 g . Thanks everyone....
Hi everyone. I have been on amox. After week one I actually felt better than I have in a while. I added in stevia extract. Now I seem to be herxing. I’ve seen some recommendations for alka seltzer...
Don’t know if I am in this group. Im assuming 12+ years it could have been before that. Things got progressively worse fast. Lyme was never considered. Diagnosed with autoimmune diseases. I’m...
Yes it was me. Thank you Girlie. Psilociraptor, it was very odd. “Ok so I’ll need a specialist to treat it.” She acted weird like that would get rid of me as a patient. She sent off amox and tried...
Hi Girlie, I sent you an email. Family is helping me right now. Anywhere near Chicago they won’t go. Right now I cannot drive long distances alone. I sent an email asking about other locations for ND...
Is taking 875mg amoxicillin 2 times a day going to make lyme worse?...
Thank you Girlie. It looks like most LLMDs are 4-5 hours drive away....
She prescribed 875 twice a day for 21 days. I’m going to start calling drs. Yes 488 is the epitome test but she wants me cdc positive. So even if it’s (crap forgetting words) confirmed positive and...
Hi everyone. I finally saw my dr regarding Lyme. I’m going to have to get a specialist. She’s going to humor me with 21 days of amox but is calling it a past infection. I was IgG positive and IgM...
Wishing you safe and productive travels!...
So I had a weird thought the other day. I’ve had lyme for years unknowingly. I’ve never seen anything regarding donating blood and having lyme. While I can’t due to medications but what about others....
No air hunger but headaches and nightsweats. I meet with my dr next Monday. I’ll have to discuss if she can handle this. Other illnesses: Graves’ disease, Addison’s disease, panic, anxiety attacks,...
A quick question. So we’re looking at a tick bite 12+ years ago. No treatment ever. Tested positive for Lyme. Did coinfections testing too through Igenex. Only the Ech one came back indeterminate. So...
As far as false positive via Igenex. I can’t remember where I saw it but they said it’s a wrong statement. Igenex is authorized in NY. Sure not for all the tests. To be authorized they are sent...
Is it odd that I would eat kibble to get rid of this? Be attracted to cat toys?...
I really need to start this!...
An important note to everyone. Please please do not do this. I know I’m new. I have friends that do injectables. I have research into topical, internal and injectable cosmetics. The colloidal silver...
Yes that is what they do. I talked to them again and got their fax in case I need it. They keep my blood for 2 months. They said this time if neither IgG or IgM is positive they recommend 488 or 489....
I called Igenex. They said my insurance should cover it (I’m still gonna get hit with a 20% bill from what I understand). If they confirm 488 positive it does change lab results to IgG positive and...
I wouldn’t eat it but I’ve done a lot of cat food research. It’s one of those things that you can’t remove after you read about it. Like :what are McDonald’s burgers made of or what’s a chicken...
Ok I understand now. Thank you. It would change me to positive and positive assuming it’s not a weird antibody. They said they keep my blood for 2 months. Let me see how my appointment goes with my...
The one thing I’m confused about is my IgM for the western blot with igenex. It says if 31 Ind and 41 + run test 488. My thyroid dr saw that note and said run test 488. I called Igenex and they said...
It said highly probable....
Thank you! I’m going to see the fibro dr at my appt and see if her or the other person in the office is qualified. I was impressed she actually ran a ton of tests to be sure it wasn’t something else....
Details- it’s long:Why we ran western blot. I’ve been sick for years. I started getting progress. About well 2 years ago it got worse. I could no longer go to the gym. I just leave home when...
I did get the western blot. Lyme western blot IgG positive. Band 39 + 41 ++ IgM 31 Indeterminate 41 + Western blot and coinfections testing was ran. I won’t know until my visit in two weeks if the...
I tested through igenex. The Erlich was 80 for IgA Ifa IgG and over 160 is considered positive. I’m reading through the top thread now. I guess I’m trying to figure out how long I should be on...
I just got results today. I would kind like to know how to go forward. Background I would have gotten Lyme about 12 years ago. It’s never been treated. My thyroid dr suggested to fibro dr to test...
Thank you!...
Insurance will cover those with a small copay. I was figuring do them all....
I don’t think i can paste in a picture. TBD1 includes their new lyme screening that my insurance does not cover so that’s not an option. CP3: Coinfection Panel 3: IgG & IgM IFA, B. Microti,, B....
A variation of my original question but I’ll simplify it. Just a last check. Only Lyme test was EAI (immunoassay antibodies) 1. Right now I’m looking at igenex running western blot 188 & 189....
I’m doing a bunch of research. I’ll definitely look into detoxing and figure that out. When January hit it was like a fibro flare that wouldn’t leave. I finally admitted my primary dr wasn’t going to...
Thank you Girlie! Quick question about stevia. I had herx from a supplement before, feeling sick, exhaustion a sick under the weather feeling. Stevia felt like a full flare the big issues were...
Hi everyone, my thyroid specialist thinks I have Lyme. Was diagnosed with Fibro a couple years ago. Tried to just live with it. Things are much worse. I’m going to try and not make this a novel. So...
Hi, what type, strength and so forth do you use? Do you use multiple delivery systems like nasal spray....
Hi I’m new here and chiming in, Taking tea tree oil internally would really need some verified research. As far as I know it’s toxic if ingested. It’s a great antibacterial. It will kill toe nail...
From reading the instructions you are responsible for the deductible or copay. Unless CD57 is ordered. A credit card to pay for testing is required if CD57 is ordered. If it’s left out I thought the...
