O.k. Can someone give me an idea of what you took on your own to work on killing the Lyme?
I am on a few things without much success, and I have become extremely sensitive to antibiotics....rashes, difficulty breathing...so, anything other than that I can use would be helpful!
Thanks so much

rife-the only thing that has worked for me
Not easy though, then again there is no quick fix

Look for threads on herbs and of course, the Rife thread.

I am having some success with the Byron White formulas.

My suggestion as a place to start : Sovereign Silver ( colloidal nanosilver) which you can research... Many have used it and made progress. I have been on it 2 mos and can only tolerate 3/4 tsp daily as it is extremely powerful!!!
I would also consider Herb Pharm Artemesia Annua for lyme and a spectrum of other infections.
Parasite protocol should be seriously considered: ivermectin, praziquantel, albenzadole , pyrantel. You can ask more questions about this issue here bit I would definitely do it !
Also, grapefruit seed extract is safe and cheap and kills lyme and other pathogens.
Start low and slow with all and you will be surprised how strong the reactions are to these !

- This set includes most LL authors who explore various modalities.
When considering herbal / nutritional / adjunct methods:
if at all possible - because each person & each case is different - it's best to consult with an ILADS-educated LL ND (lyme literate naturopathic doctor) (or similar) who has completed four years of post-graduate medical education in the field of herbal and nutritional medicine -
- and someone who is current with ILADS' research & presentations, past and present, and has completed the ILADS Physician Training Program (see: www.ilads.org )
Many LL NDs incorporate antibiotics (depending upon the licensing laws in their state). Some LLMDs and LL NDs have good working relationships.
When possible, it's great to have both a LLMD and LL ND and even better when they have a long-standing professional relationship.
(Be aware that those in some categories can have zero or various levels of formal herbal &/or nutritional education, perhaps even just a short course. Do ask first.)
Links to many articles and books by holistic-minded LL doctors of various degrees who all have this basic approach in common:
Understanding of the importance of addressing the infection(s) fully head-on with specific measures from all corners of medicine;
knowing which supplements have direct impact, which are only support and which are both.
You can compare and contrast many approaches.
