I would do the testing on the tick, but more importantly I would find a doctor that prescribes antibiotics. This is like playing with fire....
No worries at all you both! I'm grateful for the information. Would rather know all the risks than to take something that's going to harm me. Thankful to you both!...
Thank you Bailey and saraeli. saraeli: That's great information to have, I must have missed the part about it affecting the GABA receptors, that's definitely something to keep in mind....
Glad I could help Bailey 🙂!...
Hi everyone, I was reading on a different forum about Ivermectin being absorbed into the blood better when taken with a fatty meal. It was regarding one of the studies where they used Ivermectin for...
Thank you dcd2103! I think you're right. Garzie: That's a great quote! And thank you to everyone else sharing in this thread....
Hi Bailey, Hope you're doing ok. I can't speak from experience here but just wanted to share a thought. From what I understand, citrus doesn't contain high levels of histamine but instead it releases...
Just to add to my own post, I would go as far as taking antibiotics for 2 months. But that's just because I would never risk chronic Lyme knowing all the hell it causes now that I have it....
Does the rash feel numb HeartsinPain? Sorry to hear that this has happened. I understand your frustration....
4-6 weeks of antibiotics. Here's evidence for your doctor: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4196523/ ...
“We are pleased that the FDA has accepted the IND for TP-05, which is an important milestone in our pipeline development. Currently, there are no approved pharmacological prophylactic options for...
So this is very interesting. TP-05 is an oral drug that kills an attached tick before it is able to transmit Lyme disease. They started the Phase 1 Trial today. Press release:...
Sorry to hear what you guys are going through. It is never too late to treat chronic Lyme. There have been people who had Lyme for decades and treat it and get better. However, since you didn't treat...
Thank you for the update MedicalNerd. Glad you're feeling a bit better! Dr MR also recommends Liposomal Glutathione....
Not necessarily a bad idea in my opinion but keep 2 things in mind: 1) "Approximately 70%-90% of vitamin C is absorbed at moderate intakes of 30-180 mg/day. However, at doses above 1 g/day,...
I forgot to mention, sometimes when you have adrenal fatigue/low cortisol, you crave salt (but not always)....
running wild have you had your adrenals/cortisol checked? It can cause many things on your list: frequent urination, anxiety (especially morning anxiety), joint pain, fatigue, dry skin (possibly your...
Thank you everyone for sharing! Deep_sleep, do you think stress + mold triggered your Lyme? I was in a similar situation where mold triggered my Lyme. I was living in an apartment with mold in it and...
If you could go back in time in your Lyme journey and give yourself a few pieces of advice, what would that advice be?...
Dr MR said on his webinar tonight that he doesn't treat acute Lyme with herbs. I personally wouldn't risk it either. It's too risky to risk chronic Lyme. I agree with Girlie, I would do what it takes...
Hi everyone, Dr. MR was talking about the NAC ban on his webinar tonight. He said there are 2 workarounds: ALA: Alpha Lipoic Acid, helps the body produce Glutathione. Liposomal Glutathione: This...
Thank you Garzie! Those are some great ideas!...
When you have anxiety like that, you might want to talk to someone who can diagnose the anxiety and prescribe things that can help. Lyme and co can cause all kinds of anxiety disorders, or make them...
MedicalNerd that's possible. I'm prone to anxiety too....

I tried fulvic acid and it gave me terrible anxiety. I'm not sure why, just be careful....
Hi Huddie, happy to help. J&J is not a traditional vaccine, it's an adenovirus based vaccine. Novavax is hoping for vaccine authorization in September 2021. I'm not sure which type of vaccines Lyme...
Thanks Dude! Fortunately, digestion isn't one of my issues, but I'm sure someone will benefit! :)...
Hey Garzie, Just a follow up: there are no studies for Bartonella or Babesia pulsed dosing that I can find....
Hi Garzie, Just so you know: I uploaded 2 docdroid links. One was the letter to the editor, and the other one was for the paywalled study (different study). Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're...
Girlie they are currently releasing and developing inactivated virus vaccines for COVID (the traditional way of making vaccines). Might be safer than then new mRNA vaccines. Few examples: Sinopharm...
You're welcome! And thank you for all the work you put into this! It's really interesting. It stood out to me how in both papers they used cephalosporin for pulsing. Do you think half-life affects...
Have had Lyme for 6 or 7 years. Tested positive for many bands on iGenex. Have been treating for 3-4 years. Antibiotics : did barely anything besides make me feel bad, especially Dapsone which was...
Hi Garzie, I'm reading all your responses with great interest. I don't have much to add but wanted to let you know that I was able to get my hands on the study that didn't show the full study, that I...
Hey Garzie, I'm so sorry to hear about what's going between you and your partner. That said, I'm glad you are able to see it is not ok to be treated that way. I've been in a similar situation before...
Hi Garzie!, Thank you so much for your replies. Sorry for some reason I did not see your responses these last days until now. Also, as you might know, fatigue is my main symptom, so if this message...
Hey Girlie, I understand what you're saying. To be honest, I don't have all the solutions either. The only point I was trying to make is that it's easy to say that a system is broken, without...
There are some relevant studies, but not many: Negative pulse dosing outcome: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27867375/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26248368/ Positive pulse dosing outcome:...
This link to the video should work Girlie: https://tinyurl.com/29muuzwt I don't really see the point he's trying to make in his first speech. He's criticizing US Healthcare but he doesn't provide...
Hi Wisco woman, I'm so sorry to hear that you're going through this. I'm close to the same age as you and have been struggling with Lyme for years too. When you said: "yes I have done Bactrim at some...
bro123 Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker published that 25% of all people are unable to remove mold once they are exposed....
Thank you again Garzie, very interesting. That might also be why Buhner for example, focuses more on the immune system rather than just killing everything. Although, in all honesty, I do think we...
I don't know the answer to the antibiotics question. But in terms of people getting better in general, I wonder sometimes if it's really low. On the forum I know there are success stories but I would...
Thank you Garzie! Very interesting :) I noticed that you didn't mention Lyme in the examples for bacteria that switch off PD1. Is there a reason for that? You would think giving people with cancer...
Thanks Garzie! That's good to know. It's interesting how every doctor's approach is different....
This is really interesting. It's like a trojan horse, except the horse gets eaten and then kills the enemy in the process. I wonder if it translates to bacteria too. Thanks for sharing Dude!...
bro123, I haven't retested yet because I only started treating for mold not too long ago. But here were my results before treating it: https://i.ibb.co/GPXc5JC/mold.png ...
running wild have you considered the possibility of having yeast in your stomach? Dr. MR was talking about it a few weeks ago. Other than that, I think the only link between the JK that you took a...
The heat has been killing me lately too. I keep having to change my sheets from sweating in my sleep. It's awful....
That's a problem that I have to. I've been so busy with Lyme for many years that I don't really have much to talk about. I also don't really enjoy talking about Lyme with friends so that means that...
