Hello to my old friends on the forum.

 I just realized that my one year aniversary of leaving the clinic is in 4 days. I have to admit I am surprised and very happy that my treatment worked and I am 100% better.

 For months I worried that I would re lapse. And so did everyone else in my family. But I have stopped worrying about it months ago. It is gone. If you do not know me. All you have to do is search me and read all of the good and bad posts that I have written. Yes I was angry and sick and fed up. And very open about all of it.

I am forever grateful to the people at enivta in Scottsdale Az. who put up with me and who gave me my life back. So that I can be the best mom and person that I can be.

 It is a hard journey waking up out of lyme as well. One that I was not prepared for. Getting well after lyme and bart is like coming out of a coma. A long, long sleep. But not a comfortable sleep. More like waking up from a bad nightmare really. So much to do. So much to fix, so much to catch up on. And the huge mess that I came back to. But I am good, I feel great. My head is clear, my body is pain free. All of my many symptoms are gone. I am a bit of a health nut now and I work out 5 times a day. This is all good.

I hope that there are others who have also gotten better. I have yet to catch up. I had to take a break from the forum to deal with getting my life back in order after lyme and Bart. I am having to start all over again. But I have my health back, and that is the most important thing. 

I am ready to share and help others again if I can be of any service.

Ready as always to raise some @#$%^&*&^%$#@#$%^&* about Lyme!!!!!!!!! And to help people who have been blindsided by this bacteria. But there is good news.

That is amazing news. Please stay strong and continue to stay healthy.

I too was 100% better and stayed that way for 3 years. I had finally put lyme disease behind me after a long battle with the illness. But after 3 years I did relapse. I didn't think it was even possible after being so healthy for so long. The best health of my life actually, but it relapsed. I do believe that it can hide or stay in you somewhere and that it is possible to be well for years and then relapse. So keep yourself healthy and stressfree and you will do great.

I have always been healhy. And always in great shape. And always in the gym and eating very well. I was raised that way. But I got lyme almost every summer in the vineyard. Working in my deer infested garden. I don't live in a glass bubble. So I got re infected over and over again.
You can get it from a tiny insect. Mosquitos, ticks, flees, biting flies. A man.
And with 300 strains of it. No telling.
I have seen what it has done to my community at large in the vineyard. And I have seen how it stays in children and rears its head.
Our body has lots of toxic stuff in it. Mercury and pesticides and artificial sweetners etc. And our bodies store it all. So it is not just the lyme bacteria that gets us.
Stress effects the body badly. But this is life. It is stressful healthy or not. No such thing as a stress free life. But that is the good thing about envita also. They had us on a very strict diet. And the supplements that have to be cont. for life. I still order all of my supplements from them.
I only drink clean water. That is it. And I do not take any type of any drug for anything. I re built my poor body after all of the crazy amounts of abx that many Dr.s put me on, and that is why I got so sick.
So I think re infected is more practical than re plase. Unless you live in a glass bubble.

Congratulations, Marie! I have often thought of you, and wondered how you are doing. I'm tickled pink that you are doing so well!

Thank you so much for letting us know, and I look forward to hearing lots more from you.

Hey Spaz! How are you feeling????

Hey guys, gosh...my story is such a long one. Hmm....Cacun girl...help. How can they look up my post from Oct 2008 and read what a awful mess I was and when I started at Envita. I posted alomost every day. I told it all. And boy was I hot tempered and sick and could barely spell...lol
I went to Enivta.com in Scottsdale AZ. Look it up for the main info. Then I had to get a surgical port in my chest. For heavy in and out flow. Makes treatment so easy. I am a huge fan of the Ozone therapy. My fever of 101 was gone in 2 weeks. My constant mirgraine, gone, my vertigo gone, I was able to talk and see better..and on and on. I was a mess. I did the Ozone 47 times. I also did chelation. I did it all. I did the lympathic flushes. I took all of the supplements that I had to take twice a day. And that was like over 40 pills twice a day. I got better. It was hard to do. I went 4 times a week. I lived out there for the month of Oct and Nov. and left in early Dec. But then returned for Jan- Feb 8th. It is not a cake walk.
But I got it done and over with. But to get all of the good with the bad....read my past posts.
I sound calm and cool now....well I was anything but when I was sick. So, you may enjoy them more...:>)
Go back to Oct 08 I was very ill then. And I share everything.

The only thing that has kept me going is my faith. I refused to stay sick or to give up. To survive you have to have spirit and hope.

I am not giving lyme anymore thought as to myself now. And for those to say that I will only stay well living a stress free life. I say....BS....Lol. I was busy digging a women and her baby out of her totaled, flipped suv, just last week. I did not sit by and watch her flip and fly and think...oh dear....I would dig her out of her track with the crying baby, but this stress could make my lyme flare up......lol

It does no good to listen to the negative ones on this site who talk poop. I am more concerned about everyone running red lights in florida than ticks. If god wants to take me from blunt trama then so be it.
But for those on here who are sick and fighting for their lives and children and fmailies and friends.
Turn a deaf ear to the negative comments and blaze forward to your goal and your health. It is a fight. So go for it.
When I got my sickest the only thing that helped me was to get pissed off at this whole politcal disease. Not to sit down and cry and give up. I got pissed. I felt impowered. I did not quit. For those of you who are weak and scared and feeling so awful. Stay focused and have faith, and get angry if you have to. Push.

There is a blood test...gosh I think it is called a CD57....something like that.
And it shows you the levels of the lyme in your system.
It is a bacteria that has to be kept in check with a good immube system.
I don't think that we ever get it out of our system. Like herpes.
But like with herpes when you get stressed out it rears its ugly head.


I posted every bit of my treatment from oct 08 to feb 09

I had to call envita to ask questions because you guys have me on my toes. Seems that they have a new web site to explain new procedures and that they have new Dr.s in other states who are also doing the same treatment. Sooooooooooooooooooooooo
There is one in the North East and in Kansas now.
And I hear that the FDA is working with them.
So lots of good news. I am going to have to catch up on a lot. They have come a long way since my treatment. Hard to believe.
I will forward the site.

Cliff notes on Envita.
Ozone therapy, uv and ozxygenize the blood and pump it back in the body.
Collidal silver. Old abx not known to lyme as a threat.
Perioxide, pumped into body through my port. Took an hour.
Minerals and vit. packs too.
EDTA, goes in the detroys the outer shell of the lyme bacteria, and then
abx is sent in after it to kill the umprotected lyme.
Collidal silver, is not detected by lyme so it is a great killer also.
And it is not hard of the system at all. No side effects.
And the most important thing.....tons of vit. and supplements to build up your immune system.
