I'm curious if any of you have tried homeopathy because I went off all my medical treatment (with my LLMD's blessing) to try homeopathy about 8 weeks ago. Astonishingly, I've made about an 80% improvement in those 8 weeks.

Before that I was sick for a long time and took 10 months of Biaxin, Flagyl and Amox... massive amounts of abx that weren't working and my LLMD wanted me to start IV rocephin. We agreed that I would first try the homeopathy along with the naturopathy I was already doing and now I'm doing fantastically.

I am back to work part time for the first time in well over a year and I'm thrilled about how well I'm doing. Eight weeks ago I was almost completely bedridden and had been for almost a year.

I am posting this in the hopes that it may help some of you as well.

I was on 10 months of biaxin, amox and flagyl and I wasn't making much, if any, improvement. My LLMD wanted me to start IV rocephin but without insurance it was hard for me to do that.

My doctor gave his blessing to stop the meds and try the homeopathy as a last resort so I stopped all the abx and started homeopathy. I am currently seeing a homeopath and taking a homeopathic remedy called carcinosin and I have improved dramatically.

I'm amazed at the results and just want to let you all know that it's worth a try. I don't think any one thing works for everyone but if you can find a good homeopath, give it a try.

I am taking Artemisinin in addition to an antibiotic. I am finding that the natural is really getting to the Babs while the ABX is getting tot he Lyme.

It's only been about 2.5 weeks so I guess we will see where it goes from here. Hoping to be ablet o you both naturals and pharmacuticals to get well

Glad to hear you are doing so well!
