My story is the same as joee's from above except I received the vaccines prior to overseas travel. The vaccinations are what kicked off my Lyme symptoms. I have met other Lyme patients with the...
You likely won't notice your setbacks being that you already have Lyme disease....
I noticed this as well. Google's latest algorithm update took place a couple of months ago. It's been nicknamed the "Medic Update" due to it's effect on health & medical sites. The update has made...
Was just at Costco and they have a Vitamix on sale for $279. I think the tag said $75 off. Model was E320 Explorian. Still not cheap by any means and it was absolutely nuts there so proceed with...
Sorry about your cold. I hope you make a quick recovery. I'm not much help as I haven't had a cold in years. I hope the day comes soon. My wife uses Coldcalm with good results. It's off the shelf at...
You could be experiencing die-off, possibly candida. Your probiotic may be displacing pathogenic bugs/fungi in your gut which could cause those symptoms. I experienced die-off when I first started...
Dr. Shoemaker recommends Mycometrics for testing. I believe they offer two options for the ERMI, a dust & cloth kit. The cloth kit is the preferred method. Here's a link to Dr. Shoemaker's website;...
Congratulations! Looks like you have some great leads....
I've heard great things about the clinic oregonhay mentioned. They're mold certified (Dr. Shoemaker) as well which could be helpful....
I've heard that he uses antibiotics in some cases, short term I believe. I've been using homeopathy, BVT, herbs, etc....
I've been having great luck with a Dr. Klinghardt trained doctor. His clinic is located in WA state. I've made more progress in the last 4 months than I did in the previous 3 years. I'm contemplating...
My lead was 5.4 ug/dl at its high point. I never tested high but still benefited from chelation with DMSA/ALA. I also had some arsenic & mercury when I began chelation. Testing was done through...
CBD oil has made my anxiety worse. I've only tried a couple products that were high CBD and super low THC. I've read that it can take some experimenting to find the right combination/strain for a...
LDN has been helpful with insomnia, fatigue, & brain fog....
Glad to hear you're doing decent. If insured, you could try submitting your blood test receipts to insurance for reimbursement. Medicaid unexpectedly reimbursed me for Igenex testing on two different...
I guess that might be the problem, I don't view your question as simple. It's actually very complex. I'm not sure there is a straight forward answer to your question. Maybe there is a way to explain...
This is one of the areas where I run into trouble - ducting. Older houses & buildings seem to cause me the most problems. It can be an older house with ducting that runs under the house through a...
Unfortunately, heavy metal testing is similar to Mycotoxin testing, and most Lyme testing, in that it's not completely accurate. With metals though, AC developed a way to read the heavy metal hair...
You'd be better off reading some of Cutler's work. He is (was) much more qualified to explain this stuff. He wrote a book just on interpreting heavy metal hair tests titled Hair Test Interpretation:...
Bassed on the above, how did you know for sure that you had large quantities in your system? I suppose one could assume this after trying and feeling better with this protocal, but it sounds like...
Just as a note, I never had amalgam fillings but still greatly benefited from AC chelation. Vaccines, food (fish, etc), & the air we breath are just examples of other sources of heavy metals. The...
I was just looking at your previous posts. I have tightness and pain but do not have difficulty with breathing. My case is relatively minor and is intermittent at this point. I'm not sure if more...
Good question. I'm hoping that treating Lyme & Co will eventually take care of it....
I'm not necessarily promoting the Google School of Medicine but you could take a look at costochondritis. It's common with Lyme disease. It started for me earlier this year. I had a PICC line at the...
Excessive alcohol also negatively impacts oxygen levels in the body. Fighting a nasty chronic infection and creating a low oxygen environment does not sound like a good idea....
Looking forward to it. Sounds like good news....
It might be worth trying MegaSporeBiotic for the gut issues. It's different from other probiotics. This BetterHealthGuy Episode goes into details. There's some relatively good news regarding...
There may be a problem with the link....
Sorry to keep this thread going but I'd have to disagree. Everyone should do there own research regarding Any Cutler's chelation protocol. It's very safe and has helped many people including myself....
The cinnamon is a nice touch. Sounds tasty....
My fault. Sorry about that....
Link removed...
I didn't post the petition initially but I may go ahead and repost it. Please let me know if it's against the rules....
Heavy metal and mold toxicity can both cause hair loss as well....
It looks like the thread was deleted. Is it against forum rules to post a petition whose goal is to raise awareness for chronic Lyme disease?...
I'm probably looking right past it but I'm not seeing it. It was just posted today or last night....
I really wish doctors would stop throwing crazy high success percentages out there. It's so deceiving....
I tried oil packs a few times and didn't have any noticeable results. I'm not patient enough to go through the trouble and not have results. I've resorted to rubbing some on the bottom of my feet...
The FDA is cracking down on Homeopathy of all things. https://www.fda.gov/drugs/developmentapprovalprocess/smallbusinessassistance/ucm601866.htm This is all the more reason to try it as far as I'm...
The FDA & CDC, who adamantly believe that our disease doesn't exist, say vaccines are safe. There are far too many personal experiences that say otherwise....
Interesting, you could make a point to have some DMPS and/or DMSA on hand. Try to mop up some of the toxins immediately after the injection....
Yep, tuna too. There's also thimerosal, a mercury containing compound, thats used as a preservative in vaccines....
Ditto, no mercury amalgams....
My Lyme symptoms also started after receiving vaccinations, Hep A/B & Typhoid. I also believe the vaccines triggered my Lyme disease. I have heard this from other Lyme patients as well. Gardasil is...
I forgot about Mrs. Norris. I take it back, in an extreme case you could feel the effects right away. I think she had multiple doses of gadolinium in the same week or something like that....
It's a tough call. Gadolinium was banned in Europe last year because of concerns of deposition in the brain. You won't feel the effects from it immediately. It's a long term accumulative concern. We...
Thanks for the info. I've used the herbals, lauricidin, etc in the past but never the Rx's. I'll have to keep that in mind for future. For those that have done prescription antivirals, did anybody...
If you don't mind me asking, what is the approximate monthly cost of the Rx antivirals?...
I'm strongly against it. Unless there's good reason, such as trying to distinguish type of brain tumor, status of brain lesions, etc. Gadolinium is a heavy metal. I've spent far too much time & money...
Epsom salt baths, IR sauna, binders, and EWOT have helped with the dreaded brain fog....
