A few months ago I had to have a biopsy because I was told I might have lymphoma or sarcoidosis. The results came back that I didn't have lymphoma but there's a possibility of sarcoidosis. With the symptons I had, the pulmonologist said there was a chance that I might have sarcoidosis. But the tests wasn't 100% correct and he prescribed predisone. He didn't believe it was lyme disease related. I never took the predisone because of all the negative it can do it you have lyme disease.

Meanwhile my LLMD doctor sent in a test for Bartonello to some univeristy in NC which takes up to 3 months for results. Still waiting for the results. But I'm reading the symptons for sarcoidosis and bartonella can be very similar. He was going to start treating me with the Marshall Protocol but my blood pressure was really too low and apparently one of the anti b for Marshall Protocol also lowers blood pressure.

Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with any of this craziness. I don't know if I have sarcoidosis or bartonella and neither does the doctor, which is pretty scary.

How about the Marshall Protocol? Has anyone been on that and what is your experience with it?

Thanks for listening
