I can speak from experience being on IV for 16 months... way too long. IV should be used as a last resort of only the sickest Lyme patients or those that cannot tolerate any oral ABX at all due to...
It may be awhile until I post any progress. After four attempts to schedule time with the IVIG Neuro, and they still have not located my Fax'd medical records, they finally gave me an appointment for...
Read toward the back of Dr. B's Guidelines. Good section on getting starting with an exercise program. https://www.lymeneteurope.org/files/burrascano-lyme-guidelines-october-2008.pdf...
I treated babs first for 4.5 months in my first year, then went after Bart (stalled out and stopped due to elevated AST/ALT), then started IV Rocephin and month later phased in Mepron again for...
Girlie, Don't know much about Canada tax code. But yes, I would claim all LLMD visits and travel expense that you have a receipt for and let them prove if it is not allowed. Do you do your own taxes?...
I can't get to first base in making an appointment with the Boston Neuro LLMD. Maybe now that I got the first batch of test results they will contact me. My LLMD did say it may take up to nine months...
Astro, Thanks for the feedback. Here's the link to our last conversation on the IVIG labs. https://www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=30&m=4099252 I haven't had a cd57 test since 2011 when...
Just got my IVIG screening lab results to take with me to my first appointment with a Neuro LLMD in Boston who treats many long term Lyme patients with IVIG towards the end of their treatment battle....
Do you pulse the artemisinin? Otherwise it looks pretty solid. Consider using Woodland Essence JK plus that also includes Cat's Claw, Cordyceps, Eleuthero and Licorice Root. It will help save some...
Treatment needs to be a minimum of 120 days, which is about the life of a red blood cell. But many of us here have treated for much longer. And some say it is like its cousin malaria, that has no...
Just got my test results back and many of the Immuno related tests were well below range. I'll post results tomorrow. Good news is that the BCBS contract negotiated rates reduced my cost to only...
Astragalus in chronic lyme can cause too severe of a herx, so he advises to not use it. I have been taking it regularly for the past 3 years or so. I first tried it as a challenge test to check my...
Infusion America sells it mixed in with peppermint, which also has good medicinal properties. If you break it down by cost per ounce it's a better deal than Woodland Essence or other online outlets....
Just add in the crypto when it arrives. Start slow and build up to full dose. I don't take too much stock in Buhner's dosage or length of treatment. I find that Bart and Babs take a long time to...
I was also told by my LLMD that Coartem had interactions with many ABX, I backed off everything for the the first 3 weeks. I took 5 days ON and 7 days OFF then repeated....
