Afternoon Low-Grade Fever Back with Severe Fatigue, Teeth Hurt at Night

Thoughts on Brucella and ehrlichia are good ones. What is best way to treat those? I've started back on Bicillin to see if it changes anything. The odd part is all this comes with the right side...

Struggling with fatigue

Maybe I missed it looking at all the posts, but have you been tested for Epstein Barr? It is what, I believe, plays a big role with fatigue, when I get it. I'm going to be tested again this week to...

Induced Native Phage Therapy

The TBRF and Miyamotoi slipped my mine with you. It seems it is more related to fever, though. That's why I was wondering about the pain. More joints than muscle? I think both can cause muscle pain....

Afternoon Low-Grade Fever Back with Severe Fatigue, Teeth Hurt at Night

saraeli - That is a possibility, though the pollen count here is lower than it was a couple of weeks ago without symptoms. But maybe it has an accumulative effect. Maybe I should try Claritin again?...

Afternoon Low-Grade Fever Back with Severe Fatigue, Teeth Hurt at Night

Once again, I am experiencing what the subject mentions. It starts about 3:00 pm and goes until about 6:30 or 7:00 pm. My face feels like it's hot , but it's not as hot as it seems. Fever feels like...

Kidneys, Blood Pressure, and Infections

Hope the blood pressure does the trick. As I'm sure you've seen, less red meats could help with creatinine, as well as meats in general. Easier said than done. But with everything else in good range,...

Does Dr J do IVIG

As far as insurance, I have found that a tough sell. Initially, the rheumotologist I see for Sjogrens Syndrome said it would be no problem getting IVIG for the neuropathy it is causing. That changed...

I have used native phage therapy for EBV and Lyme. It seemed to help with EBV, but the doctor had trouble finding the right frequency needed for the tick born relapsing fever that would work....

Struggling to Find Bicillin I can Afford

Hey Rainy - Maybe you'll understand this better. I have always seen Bicillin 12000000 units as 2ML. The site is showing it as one. Also, it indicates "IU." I tried to chat but no one must be there...

Struggling to Find Bicillin I can Afford

lyme guy - It will take more than six weeks, for sure, to really make a difference. What dosage are you taking and how often? When it helped me by the end of 2014, I had been taking it for about a...

Is this neuropathy ...? (update: seems more likely a pinched nerve)

saraeli's point is a good one. Something pressing on a nerve that may be able to be taken care of with chiropractic care or inflammation going down. With Lyme causing so many odd things, this is a...

High Bun/Creatinine Ratio w/ Dapsone

Echoing Garzie's thoughts - Keeping up with blood tests and understanding what they are telling you is important. I found out a lot of doctors seem to dismiss "off" kidney counts with Lyme. Even an...

Thanks, Rainy. They look a little like those in links. Mine are more lie a callous but they aren't and just a bit darker. AT the end of my big toe it looks like a mild blood streak. If I could ever...

There is no straight answer as to how Houttuynia impacts the kidney, as least what I have tried to find over the years. With my kidney function at about 50% - 55% for the last-nine years, I'm careful...

Electrolytes out of wack?

A comp panel would cover electrolytes, except magnesium I believe, and would give you more information about kidneys, liver, blood glucose etc... But it may cost more, so atroman's way may be best....

Biofilm and lupus

That leads to what may be a stupid question in my mind, but it wouldn't be the first time I've sked one. Does use of serrapeptase and/or nattokinase and lumbrokinase help with the possibility of...
