I want to do a strong short term herb protocol before I start disulfiram in November. I have ordered Cryptolepis and plan to take a strong dose of that. I also have the following from past protocols:...
Through the entire time that I've had lyme disease I have tried so many different exercises and activities for everything from strength to flexibility. Personalized (On my own, not in a class) Yoga...
Essential oils do not get absorbed through the GI tract. This is what I've know always to be true. Can someone link some evidence saying that an essential oil has been proven to reach the bloodstream...
oil of oregano does not get absorbed into the body in any way to have a significant benefit towards lyme disease. I'm sorry but this is a common misconception going around these forums. There is a...
This is because alot of these oils and fats, including monolaurin, do not make it into the blood after being taken orally. I could not find any evidence on monolaurin being effectively absorbed into...
I'm not sure how hot the water was. its hard to say because it keeps changing and I could not keep track of 2 thermometers. The water was tolerable for my skin once I adjusted to it. I added hot...
lol yep, sorry. too much reading today for me. my apologies...
So today I got my body temperature up to 104deg F. This is one degree below the treatment they do in Germany. I used a thermometer with a cord that has a separate screen to read temperatures. It also...
could you also link the study...
The reason I ask is because I have been looking into the hyperthermia treatment that have come up recently. I was curious to see how the saunas that everyone is using compare to this and it seems...
Not to point out the obvious but every illness would be intensified by a weak liver. Candida is pretty clear to recognize if you have it. the symptoms are GI problems and also you can see it on the...
I am certainly not saying that anyone is doing anything wrong. I wan to know what the results were from the previous antibiotic treatment that made it worth repeating. I am just looking for someone...
Has anyone ever kept track of their body temperature while using an infrared sauna? What temperature does the body reach?...
"Some of my friends that are not smart are so successful now" Before you say things like this you may want to correct your grammar and spelling in your own post first. And also.... It's not just the...
Are you cured from the protocol that you have found? If not, what advantages and benefits did you obtain with your protocol now compared to past ones?...
hi Kat! good advice about the herbs I was wondering if your first round of antibiotics cured you? can you tell me your reasoning for starting them back up again?...
This is very poor advice and a few things are wrong which I will point out 1. "Untreated lyme"... this is not about untreated lyme. The Lyme is being treated and a damaged liver is much worse than...
I'll give a quick post of what I do know and when I have some more time I will come back and add a little more information. Basically it all depends on the infection. Mono Is a big one. Mono is cause...

The issues is that a Herx is a specific thing. This is directed towards anyone reading this thread. present or future. A Jarisch–Herxheimer reaction is a reaction to endotoxin-like products released...
Sorry for the errors. It's very late and im tired and not feeling well...
The statement I made was very General. I will follow up with clarification later, ive been busy all day, sorry guys. So, generally when a bacteriacidal substance is ingested it takes ama certain...
I forgot to mention a herx lasts about 2 hours maximum....
I may make a new thread about Herxing soon. It seems the word gets tossed around too much. This came to my attention when I saw a few pages no facebook that were mocking people who use the word and...
I wouldn't directly link it to a herx. There are a lot of reasons why lymph nodes get swollen. Rapid die off of bacteria is one reason. Also it could be that your new herb is stimulating the immune...
I have recently gotten DMSO. It definitely helps with swelling, joint pain, and also head pressure. I uses the 99% drop about 15-30 drops in my hands and just rub down my arms, chest, wherever. It...
you could also try taking the more difficult herbs at night to sleep through some of the mood issues. Its worth trying. by the time you wake up it will mostly be out of your system and had done its...
studies done show how borrelia OspA effects b cells. we also know that OspA, without infection of borrelia, from the Lymrerix vaccine causes the same disease as late stage lyme disease... we can...
From my point of view I think It would be fine to stop antibiotics. It is known that long term antibiotics have not been known to help late stage lyme disease. There are many people on here who have...
1. BostonM stated that the symptoms have not resolved 2. Very few LLMD get patients to the point of symptoms resolving and although in the very rare case that it does happen the idea would be to...
Jinna, are you cured of lyme by this technique?...
I think the idea is that since the lyme uses the Manganese from our bodies that we would be low on it. supplementing manganese would in theory replace what the lyme is taking from us. Another thought...
Deejavu it seems a little odd that the products that you state to have cured you all come from the same company. People here are aware of that just as they are aware of antibotics issues. I looked...
I am now delving into this Truthcures website and first off... I have never seen a more thorough explanation of a claim than this. This woman is not hardly making a claim, It is more so a...
I definitely have this symptom. My head feels like a balloon about to burst most days. My eyes have pressure behind them. I am getting my order of DMSO in tomorrow and i will update on its effects....
This is what I have been feeling the whole time. I see just about every combination of antibiotics and herbs being used and, to me, its just an obvious fact that we're doing the wrong things. I would...
Hi, I was wondering if anyone here has had a flu shot while they were battling lyme disease. what was your experience with it?...
So, small update.... I tried what I set out to do. The substance that I mentioned was a peptide(P1) that was made to mimic The Ixodes scapularis tick antifreeze glycoprotein, IAFGP. I ordered it from...
The problem is that in the study for biofilms the concentration of dmso is 32%. Much higher than what would be reached in the blood. Not saying that it wouldn't help but its not direct evidence. I am...
Selfhacked is a very good website for that information. The information is thorough and each claim is cited to a study. It does not have much about lyme. Its all about immune issues....
Well at least someone associated with the CDC is asking the right questions... even if the CDC doesnt want to be a part of it yet....
If the Lyme bacteria is the root of the problem and it has effects on the immune system then I wouldn't consider it an immune problem at all. I was mostly referring to a situation where, when...
I'm asking because I'd like to hear of a situation that would prove that the lyme infection stays around after antibiotics. As opposed to chronoc lyme actually being an immune system problem, which...
Has anyone experienced the negative effects of immune suppression from taking corticosteroids? Did they help symptoms overall? Did symptoms get worse?...
It is not a synthetic opiate. it does not have addiction properties and its safety profile is very good especially at the doses needed to curb inflammation. how i see it is the entire reason herbs...
I am not sure what doses I will use but I will have Minocycline, rifampicin, ceftin, amoxycillin, tinidazole, and flagyl that I can work with. and I know that flagyl(metronidazole) and tinidazole...
