Has anyone had a blood clot due to Lyme Disease or possibly from neurotoxins? I had a blood clot 6 months ago and I think my blood got thick from too many toxins.
I am pretty sure that I am over lyme for the most part, but many toxins are left behind that cause me to have stiffness in all my joints. I feel much better as far as the other symptoms of LD. My Lyme doc thinks I have toxins left behind causing these symptoms.
I am on coumadin to thin my blood, but I am nervous about getting off of it, until all of my symptoms(stiffness in my joints) are gone.

Are you helping your body to detox?
I agree that too many toxins cause stiffness in the joints. That's what happens to me too. Everytime I do a coffee enema, I feel tons better.
I plan to buy a FIR sauna as soon as I can afford one and use it regularly for this very reason.

Get tested for Factor V Leiden mutation as well to ensure that you don't have a natural blood clot inclination. If you do, they may want you on blood thinners for life. Coumadin is the old option but Pradaxa is a newer, better but more expensive option...

How are you sure you're over Lyme? Just curious. I'm sorry to hear about the blood clot.

Seekhelp, I think I'm over lyme because most of my symptoms are gone. The fatigue, feeling like I have the flu, the neuro stuff......all better. All thats left is this pain.
My doc thinks its neurotoxins, but did not offer a way to get rid of it. Said it goes away in 1 to 2 years on its own.
I am scared to take any herbal remedies since I am now taking coumadin. Most things don't interact well with coumadin.
