I would like to begin to use essential oils to treat my residual Lyme disease. Which oils should I use? How?
I have a young living starter kit. Should I order more?

My belief is that most of the oils are "supportive." I'm not sure you will find anything to "cure" it.
I used them until I totally fell off the cliff and now I can't use oils at all. (I react to them)
In my opinion, Young Living is the best. (I used to buy them.)

Oils are supportive like EVERYTHING else is supportive for lyme!
I like rubbed oils more than ingesting stuff.
I would start ONLY RUBBING. You can mix them with jojoba oil, for example, and read what each does, and then choose where to rub (lymph, tummy area, etc).

Oil of oregano, frankincense and dÅTERRA makes a blend called on guard ( I'm sure young living has something comparable.).
I use them in addition to antibiotics.
Depending on your symptoms I also use other oils for those specific concerns.
I am an essential oil junkie so if you need any additional help I can advise you the best I can.
I just started treatment but I seem to responding quickly. I think it's because of the oils.

And yes I def would recommend using a carrier oil with the oils. Apply to bottom of feet and I also apply where I think lyme is attacking the hardest.
Some have trouble with the oil of oregano when ingested. See how you tolerate applying topically first.

I'm going to start using them again. Oregano seemed to help me in the past.

- essential oils in a bath can be irritating to genital tissue. Be very careful as that kind of burn can be miserable for some time afterward. -
