I just ordered some clove bud oil to try for bartonella, following the suggestion of Dr. JS's new book on bart. I'm already taking Rifampin and houttuynia, as well as Cumanda (sometimes) for bart.
I'm not sure how to use the clove bud oil exactly, or what to expect, so I'd love to hear experiences from any who have tried it.

I got something called "clovanol" and I mix it with olive oil and put it on toast. I was told to work up from 30 to 120 drops of clovanol,and keep the ratio of olive oil to clovanol 3:1. I find it really rather disgusting, but I'm giving it a shot!
So far I really don't feel any herx or side effects but I've only been using cumanda and clovanol about a week.

Essential oils can be very powerful.
Not all essential oils are for consumption, though, so be sure.
Some essential oils can burn. Be sure to get expert instruction.
some are just meant to be smelled . . . some mixed with a carrier oil, such as almond oil, and rubbed into the skin. Do not go over the number of drops suggested - and be sure the ratio to carrier oil is perfect - otherwise it can burn.
Thieves' is one that is suggested (topically and to smell) for lyme, BTW, based upon a formula used during the plague in Europe. Historically, it has good accounts.

I tried black pepper with levaquine and it took down the "Bart headache" that levaquine seems to make for me.
