 Hello,

I am new to this forum but not new to Lyme Disease. I was seeing a group of physicians in Colorado Springs that were treating me with IV medications and now they have closed up shop so am looking for a new doctor. I thought that I had found one in Oklahoma but they wanted to treat me with the Marshall Protocol and my insurance wouldn't pay for the meds and my family wasn't supportive at all. If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. I have been off of all antibiotics since 12/07.

 I will pm you some info when I get back, I have to get my daughter from school .... but the best thing you can do while waiting to find a doctor is to build your immune system. garlic is amazing, antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasitic, etc, fanstatic to take, also olive leaf extract, astragulus, good multi , lots of B12, and B complex, also lots of water, and you MUST exercise, lyme hate O2 and heat, both of which exercise create. Bruscanno says we WILL NOT get well without exercise, we can take all the abx we want but it won't happen. Sauna's are good to a certain point, don't over do it.... epsom salt/peroxide baths are good for detoxing.... gotta run, I'll pm you how to get a doc soon
Please do not take anything I say as medical advice. I am not a doctor.
