Ive been told that i have lyme, and of course i know i have yeast.
but some 'dr' think it is more yeast.
saying my bronchitis last year was yeast related... but the thing is wouldnt the abx have made it worse and not better?
Im in a huge mess right now, and have NO where to turn.
its so nice today, i should be out at the orchard with my mom......just like i used to do, enjoying the festivities of fall,
but nope here i am in bed....and have veggies and poultry to look forward to.
im off all treatment, and have no clue what to treat.
my igenex came back more positive, but could be a fluke.

Sure wish I could be of more help. Have you heard of any other drs in your area who could help??
Maybe an alternative type dr??
I'm there with you in spirit....not that that helps much! Posted by Ladylee210 (Member # 9945) on :
Hang in there, I'm not sure what kind of treatment you have been on for lyme and for how long, but for me me after 8 yrs straight of Iv's and orals seeing some improvemtment but suddenely coming up with weird allergies to meds and certain ordors and such, plus noticing some sytoms of what I thought to be my lyme acting up I discovered the "yeast route". I stopped all meds for lyme placed my life within my faith and started studying about yeast. I tested postive for yeast in the blood stream and in the gut. Started a very strick diet for the yeast (the yeast connection) adding off and on difulcan and nystatin, it was HELL at first (herxed real bad) but in time it all kicked in (that was back in 1997) and still going today, but having to live the yeast free diet as a way of life. Of course thru the yrs I also in alot of natural things - HBO treatments, colinics, herbs etc. To me the yeast is and did become harder to fight then the lyme.

cave- i have been off abx due to yeast. Off since may of this year.
i was on nazarol for yeast but then my liver enzymes went up.
Ive been to about 5 llmd's. the current one doesnt know what to do with me either.
symptoms now are,
bladder pain- IC vulvar vestibulitis weight loss yeast neck pain, pelvic tightness dry mouth some twitching limited diet knee pain low thyroid adrenal dysfunction
at one point i had all the symptoms on the lyme/yeast list
lymetoo- i am seein a holistic dr right now, who sells herbal supps......i have to try some of them, but am afraid because of my bladder and recent kidney and liver panels.

I was just going to send you a PM to see how you're doing. I guess now I know!
I truly hope you can find a doctor who can help you. Have you tried Dr. E in Flemington?

I just want you to know that I'm thinking about you and praying. It's hard for sure.
How about trying the yeast treatment route with natural remedies? It's good that you're seeing a holistic dr. Maybe a naturopathic dr can help too?
You'll get out to the orchard soon. Hang in there. Posted by Andie333 (Member # 7370) on :
Cant.
I just wanted to let you know you're in my thoughts. You take care; I'm also sending you a pm.

Have you ever been treated with the yeast meds? I too have bronc. off and on and sometimes the antib. help but other times the yeast meds help - sometimes I need them both. It just may be the yeast - as I know the yeast have seem to take hold of the lungs on me the worst, when I'm strick on the diet it does clear up - when I slipp up or the weather changes at times the bronc.m comes in like a venage and it takes both.
