I have been on Doxy for 5 weeks , 400 mg daily; double dose 200mg in the am and 200 mg in the pm.

I am getting very irritable and lots of anxiety or panic attacks. I was thinking to stop in 6 weeks total per Dr. Burrascano guide. Or may be I can reduce the dose to 200mg daily and then stop in 8 weeks total.

Once I stop the abx, then I will be on Dr. Cowden program for a year including samento and banderol.

My LLMD told me that my Lyme must have been recent and biofilm and cyst only happens in rare cases.

what do you think ?

~~~Hello yassi,

~ "My LLMD told me that my Lyme must have been recent" ~ Unknowable. ~ "and biofilm and cyst only happens in rare cases." ~ Untrue. This Dr is guessing. I believe this Dr, if truly LL, appears to be somewhat inexperienced.

~~~400mg doxy daily is better than less. If you can continue to withstand this herxing it would be advisable because the alternative is to feel ten times worse! In light of this fact, do you think you con continue?

~~~Hang in there. This Complex is just continuing to go through its phases. This is what it does.

~~~For now, try to focus on calm and stillness in this Lyme Storm.

Thanks Waxby.

It does not bother me taking the Doxy for longer, the problem is that "I think it is

playing with my sugar levels" and it is making me nervous. I do not know if it is my

nerves or a Herx reaction. I think it is my nerves because I had these for years

because of a personal issue with a son.

I think you are right. I should be focusing on the calmness which I already starting to

do. I also think since my mercury levels are 16 which is high, I am considering PCA-RX

by maxum labs for metal edtox unless you know of a better way....

I think i still have the bacteria because I feel that I have to go to the bathroom every 10 minutes. So, I might need a kidney detox? any ideas?

~~~Hello yassi,

~ "I think it,(Doxy),is playing with my sugar levels" ~ Lyme Complex is playing with everything!

~ "I should be focusing on the calmness which I am already starting to do" ~ It just takes continual practice. Whenever you find your focus somewhere else, you just brought it back.

~ "metal detox" ~ A superior diet with plenty of fluids, 15 minutes before and between meals, not with meals, for better more complete proper digetion, will aid greatly with this and so will MMS for this and pathogen destruction http://whatismms.com/documents/MMS%20Miracle%20Mineral.pdf

I was on a similar dose of doxy for longer than a month. Panic attacks could be a symptom of a developing candida infection thanks to the antibiotics. Might want to look into it. Stop eating sugar, wheat, and drinking alcohol asap if you haven't already.

Lots of fluid, lots of detox. I'd suggest taking a high dose of Zhang allicin daily to keep the candida at bay..

My candida is in check even though I eat very limited amount of sugars. I always have yogurt that seems to keep my candida in check.

Thank you.

Hi yassi-

If your mercury levels are high, you're urinating frequently, having panic/anxiety, and think or feel like the meds are messing with your sugar levels.. it's a good indicator that your yeast isn't in control and needs to be treated more aggressively.

Yogurt and probiotics only go so far, and having metal toxicity makes you even more susceptible..I'm still dealing with mine for that exact reason and it was pretty much eradicated..

You might want to think about adding more to your protocol for yeast and detox more for the metals..

Blessings to you.

All of my advice comes from research and personal experience. I strongly suggest that you each check with your doctor for approval before changing or adding anything to your treatment.


Peace . . . starts within each one of us. When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us. When our community is in a state of peace, it can share that peace with neighboring communities, and so on. When we feel love and kindness towards others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace. And there are ways in which we can consciously work to develop feelings of love and kindness. For some of us, the most effective way to do so is through religious practice. For others it may be non-religious practices. What is important is that we each make a sincere effort to take our responsibility for each other and for the natural environment we live in seriously.
