Hey everyone, I’m currently on day 12 of an awful headache that won’t go away. I’ve tried everything over the counter as well as imitrex. I don’t have a history of headaches but I have tested positive for Lyme, RMSF, babesia, and bartonella in the past. I’m currently on Cetin, Bactrim, and Amoxclav for Lyme maintainence. Any suggestions as to get over this awful headache. Do you all think it’s lyme related?? Ugh desperately seeking help!😐

I wonder if youre not detoxing well? You're on 3 types of antibacs; therefore killing off ALOT!

What do you do for detox? Have you been tested for viral load of human herpes viruses?

Ive been having sinus headaches due to treating marcons, and my leftside neck gets SO tense & achy, then the TWO turn into a whole head migraine. But it lasts typically 24-36 hours, and ibuprofen works pretty good.

I do daily epson salt baths, glutathione, milk thistle, and dandilion root. Also lots of water! It’s weird bc headaches were not one of my original Lyme symptoms I’m hoping this isn’t a new symptom arising bc it’s by far the most painful thus far.

My chronic headaches got much much better after doing lengthy mold and parasite cleansing.

I have been fighting headaches out of nowhere recently and I have narrowed it down to one or two causes:

1) I am killing something and they are releasing poisons
2) Something I am taking is bad, contains heavy metal or mold, and is causing headaches

or both #1 and #2

I fight everything tooth and nail. I take Glutathione, Milk Thistle and Reverse Osmosis water like you, but I also add NAC 4 times a day and Spirulina.

Yesterday to test #2, I did not take herbs except Teasel root. For whatever reason i did not wake up with my hang over and day long headache. Unfortunately, I can't figure out if the herbs are causing #2, or #1, or both. I am going to do through the process of elimination, one by one, add the herbs back. I suspect that my Turmeric and/or Cat's Claw is causing the issue.

I take Physillian Husk every night the last thing I do after every pill/herb I take is fully digested and a pro-biotic. This is to put fiber in my gut and give a place where toxic stuff can go to while I sleep. I think it is working. I notice if I mix Physillian Husk with medications, the medications are not effective: I think this is because they are being absorbed and canceled out by the fiber (which at least proves the fiber is doing something)

I also have a secret weapon called Modafinil. It is also called Wake alert. When I take it I am 100 (maybe 200%) fatigue free and I can drive or do things for long periods of time, like go to my doctors appointment, do things in an emergency. But it causes so much toxicity, headcache, back pain, etc I can only use it once every two weeks. It also causes massive back pain after three days. It is a huge price to pay, but for 24-48 hours and sometimes up to two weeks later I am fatigue free. I think the method of action of Modafinil is that it flushes toxins out of my brain. Recently I have combined that with my aggressive anti-detox protocol and I no longer have back pains(!!!) or head aches as much as I use to.

I think you are having #1 of my problem and I would double or tripple down on the detox protocol.

I almost forgot, ALA, which I got last week, was a game changer as well.
