  "I have Lyme" (LUCA)

MDJunction to me

ThereseML"When I first came to MDJ, I was in need of peer support in dealing with issues of my childhood abuse. I was moving away from the painful issues and trying to find an uplifting group of people to help me transition to a thriver in my life. I found that here. I also found a group of peers with Fibromyalgia and found the same uplifting experience there. My computer crashed and it was a while before I found my way back, this time with issues related to Parkinson's Disease. I had tried a few other support sites before reminding myself of MDJ. On those, I never got a reply. I finally found my way back here and again found very supportive, caring and inspiring people who made me feel like I was 'back home'. Indeed I am." (ThereseML)

Has anyone had success with any alternative/natural treatments for lymes? I was using the nutramedix drops (samento, cumanda) but they were causing a lot of acid reflux and I have stopped them. I am searching for other options. I can't do the antibiotics anymore as they make me sick. Has anyone tried sauna/heat therapy?

thanks for your help.

I have been on Dr. Zhang's Herbal protocol for lyme and Babesia for 6 months with great success. His treatment comes in capsule form, 4 different ones (in my case) for different purposes. I never tried anti-biotics.

I tried Zhang and got good results. Switched to Spiro for a while and then tried Buhner. I've found that switching protocols every 2 weeks can be helpful.

BTW take a five day break between switiching. I am now doing buhner, cowden, and homeopathics. I also detox with far infrared sauna with castor oil pack, 1-2 times a week and hot epsom salt and peroxide baths with essential oils (lavender).

This is what I do. Not a doc so it's your call.

I use Byron Whites. They are very effective. Very strong formulas! There is a very loooong thread regarding these formulas and there's good info there if you can navigate through it.
