Lmao, another 1 post account signed up to add their opinion to this thread. I can't make the forum or moderators do anything. I'm simply saying that this community loses credibility if new user...
To clarify: there is absolutely no way that the member claiming that "Wyatt is a genius" is a real patient. Why on earth would someone register for this forum, only to show up and post twice to shill...
I don't understand why we allow new members to come on this board and make "claims of cure" about dangerous, predatory quacks. Where is the moderation?!...
It is $2k-3k for the initial visit. I believe that his PAs do most of the work with patients. You can send them an email to confirm, this info is from my inquiry around two months ago....
If the information is really worth sharing, they would either publish it in the medical literature (unlikely) or write a book (more likely). I don't think we need to be worried that we're missing out...
Thanks for the info. That's unfortunate....
You sure the recording is $300? Looks like the attendance fee was $300....
From a cursory glance at their website, it looks like they're just importing herbal powders and making tinctures to sell. As there is not much regulation in this area, you might want to try a brand...
If you are feeling overwhelmed, my honest opinion is to just listen to your doctor's advice and ignore the the rest for the next few months. If you are not improving, then it might be time to try and...
Horowitz's office recently announced that they onboarded a new PA and are taking new patients. I do not believe that new patients would actually be treated by Horowitz himself. The email that I was...
When I disagree with a viewpoint being discussed, I like to pop into a thread and say something so that other members / viewers of this forum can see that not everyone here believes in the same...
Do you have previous test results that are indicative of Bb infection or exposure? Have you been on active treatment? Are your symptoms better or worse than they were before? Or are they new? Taken...
I'm sorry but I completely disagree. Just because most institutions have failed us, doesn't mean that we should throw out the entire concept of evidence based medicine. There is no science to support...
The OP may be referring to DNA sequencing of microbes, not getting their own DNA sequenced. Also, technology has progressed and Dante Labs will sequence your full genome for $600....
There are very specific reasons why antibodies to Borrelia may not seroconvert from IgM to IgG. These reasons do not apply to Babesia....
If anyone wants to really dig into this stuff, I recommend this lengthly article by Lisa Petrison: https://paradigmchange.me/wp/urine/ ...
None of the tests for mold are very accurate. If you have money to spare I would say "go for it", but if money is tight, do not waste your money. You could consider a trial of cheap binders...
Interesting, well I suppose I stand corrected then. If insurance covers it, I don't see any downside to a trial of IVIG if one has tried all of the other standard treatments already....
Or Dr. S Y maybe. I am just very curious as I have never heard of anyone prescribing IVIG for Lyme Disease....
Is this Dr. E. F. or is there another one that you are talking about? I am interested to hear more about it....
YourTrueFriend: I am in a similar situation as you, although I am currently only starting the double-dose dapsone protocol. (I don't have a lot of hope for it, as I feel like I basically need nothing...
According to the iGenex website, the FISH test is not species-specific: https://igenex.com/disease/babesia/#drawer-2 ...
Maybe this is a minority viewpoint, but while I respect the opinions that are expressed in this thread, I wonder if maybe they would be better off posted on a different forum or a section of...
I'm sorry, that sounds awful. If I were you I would take the test results to mean "these symptoms are not from Babesia" but that's just my opinion, and you can never know for sure....
What are your symptoms? I am having a similar experience, my symptoms have gotten worse but my Babesia FISH and IFA have both gone negative (with treatment). So personally I am attributing symptoms...
Thanks! May I ask what they recommended in terms of treatment?...
Apologies in advance for reviving a thread from 6 years ago. I am wondering if anyone has actually been to Columbia University's Lyme and Tick-Borne Disease Research Center for an evaluation and can...
My personal opinion is that a qualified, trusted mold inspector will give you better data than ERMI or HERTSMI. If you can afford both, do both....
Just chiming in to say that I was prescribed 3 pills of Malarone, twice a day, for an extended period of time. I am not familiar with pulsing protocols but it does not sound that unreasonable. If you...
I would attempt to back up my statements with direct excerpts from the book but thankfully I was able to return my ebook version rather easily. I gave the book 3/5 stars in an Amazon review. I am not...
I don't understand why vector borne diseases and autoimmune illnesses need to be pitted against each other in this way. The framing of the book makes no sense to me. Even if people are lazily being...
Part of what really irked me was his dismissal of Disulfiram and Dapsone as treatment options because they are unproven, or too risky, or something like that. He seems incapable of admitting that...
I just need to add that I also thought the book was very low-quality. I agree with most of what dcd wrote. If you want practical information on Lyme treatment, read Horowitz. If you want information...
WBF: I just looked at my archived test results from Microgen and remembered a thought I had at the time. I believe that the Microgen DNA sequencing is very very sensitive and that you want to take...
Yes, they returned negative a couple times and positive a couple times after. Treatment helped a little bit but ultimately most of my symptoms have not been helped at all by treatment...
Have used microgen, was satisfied, they delivered more or less what was promised. Personally I don’t trust Aperiomics, too new...
Researched Nutritionals is a reputable brand and has a shelf stable version....
Hey @markd, wondering if you ever found answers to these questions we discussed?...
I suspect the reason there is a charge for this consult is because unless you are a patient of his, he is not able to say "if you have Borrelia, buy this. If you have Babesia, buy this." Looks like...
Is it supposed to be an effective treatment for something?...
I think it is irresponsible for anyone on this forum to encourage someone *not* to see a medical practitioner. @Skeletonflower I am very sorry to hear about your situation. Are in you in the US? Do...
> Disulfiram clearly has potent antibiotic effects. It also has side effects. Twenty five percent of users have some rise in liver function tests –markers of liver inflammation. The rise is usually...
I am all for taking herbal tinctures but who has the time or energy to brew 8 cups of tea per day?...
Thanks for posting. I will subscribe and early await your updates. I previously attempted Dapsone and stopped because of a mild worsening in symptoms, but I am considering asking my doctor for the...
I would take the doctor's advice and treat it, then reevaluate after a month of treatment. That will give you better feedback than any of us could give you without trialing treatment....
Testing for Lyme and co-infections is not very accurate, but I personally reject the notion that this means that testing has no significance whatsoever....
@bryguy27007 we might be able to provide better responses and opinions if you posted some of your newest test results (anonymized, of course). Have your symptoms changed over time? Did you have other...
Can you describe your symptoms some more? How severe is your pain, and how frequent? What is the "other stuff" that your doctor wants you to take, and why are you reluctant to do so? I think most of...
Neither am I! Sorry if that wasn't clear :)...
Dilsulfiram / Dapsone having success kind of lends itself to my point -- that clinical improvement happens when the entire disease complex is treated, not just Babesia itself....
