I received my Rife machine two weeks ago and have not used it. I feel so horrible right now from my last round of antibiotics that I am afraid it will make me worse. When my husband started it up last night I ran out of the room and he is upset with me since we spent $500.00 on it. I contacted the maker of the machine and asked him if you can target certain areas of the body with it such as knee joints and he said not to do that because you could send bacteria somewhere else that you don't want it to go. I don't want my head or neck to get any worse and don't know what to do. This is another venture into the unknown. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Rife can be very powerful and if you are not ready for it and do not have good detoxification support in place, it could be the wrong thing for you. It kills - the dead stuff and the poisons they release have to get out of the body and if they do not, you will feel worse. I put rife in a similar category to antibiotics - it kills - but we also need to do the detox work. Start very slowly when you do.

Wait until you feel better so you can tolerate another round of feeling horrible.
Scott said it all. Start slow and detox. If you already feel lousy from herxing it is better to clear the system than burden it with more.

Can you just start a little in a small area and see what that does? If it works in a small area, maybe you could move to a bigger area. Trial by a small area. Everything is a guess with this disease. Good luck. Minocycline is knocking me down, but what choice do we have? Something has to hit it right.

I just borrowed a Rife machine, and I'm also concerned about herxing since my med, clindamycin, has not been working recently for the Lyme, and I'm Lyme-symptomatic currently.
Scott(or anyone), what would be the cheapest kind of detoxing to do, as I don't have big bucks to spend right now?
Also, if we're doing detoxing too and get some kind of reaction, how would we know if it's due to Rifing or the detox? Maybe for that reason, first try the Rife machine to see what it does? Thx. -- Robin

I'm afraid of mine, too, especially since I have reason to believe cell phones, wireless, cordless phones, etc... are the reason Lyme crosses the blood-brain barrier to begin with.
I'd be careful - my machine is sitting, too - google 'cell phones, health effects' before using this. You may change your mind.

Cell phones, wireless internet and cordless phones all operate in the microwave frequency band.
Most frequencies for Lyme used by a Rife machine are in the audio band. None of them approach the microwave frequencies that you are referring to.
It is comparing apples and oranges.
Lyme and other spirochetes are shaped like a corkscrew for a reason. It is so they can penetrate areas such as the brain and other organs without too much difficulty. Frequencies or not, they will get there given enough time. They are specifically designed for this purpose.

I remember being afraid of mine too...the good old Dan Tracey 1. I like using mine when I'm off meds a few weeks. Order the book Lyme Disease & Rife Machines by Rosner. It will help u understand the way they work. Your cell phone will do more harm to u than your Rife machine. Plus remember that all RX meds have their down side too, but we have to take them to get well, and weigh the risks against the benefits.
Going by memory here, but it goes something like this : During a round of abx,some die - those that don't - they morph, they hide, they wait till it's "safe" to come back out & strike again -when ur not on abx. This is when u hit them w/ the rife. They are not expecting it - they can't hide from it. They die. Seems to work best on lyme & yeast but I run the babs ect also. I also run the syphillus #'s as they are also spiro's.
Keep notes as you run the #'s. You will be surprised. Some #'s made my eye twitch, some made my knee throb. I made sure I did those #'s again next time. GO SLOW - you can always add more.
Detoxing is very important. I like to stay on WholeApproach yeast program, and use this as my detox, the magma in it is very good at sucking out the toxins. Anytime I can kill 2 birds w/ 1 stone, I'm all for it. Keeping yeast under control & detoxing all at the same time.
One detox that I have found I HAVE to do after rifeing: A very hot, very long epsom salt bath, followed by an alcahol rub down with cotton squares. I found thru experience (let me know if anyone else has experienced this...) that the 1st time I break a hard sweat after rifeing -I get an itching all over my back almost identical to being bit by chiggars. This does NOT happen if I do the alcahol rub down immeadiatly after the bath. My theory (and it's only my theory, found thru my experience) is that the critters/and or toxins are trying to exit thru the open pores from the bath. Don't know if this is true, just know that's what it feels like. Also, you will not believe what comes off on those cotton squares. I will be squeeqy clean, and those squares will be utterly filthy - especially from the areas of back, top of arms, and neck.
Use a stop watch when rifing - it's easy to lose track of time if your reading, etc.
Hope this helps you get up the courage to give it a try.
FYI - I have lost a cat to a fatal feline illness called cytox. Instead of the human chain of a tick biting a mouse 1st - then biting a human to transfer Lyme & co's ; in cytox the tick must bite a bobcat before biting your cat. My cat was dead in 1 week from this & it wasn't pretty. So when I found an engorged tick on my current cat & noticed her being sluggish the next fey days, she & I went & rifed. My machine is in the basement, so if I rife, I make sure she comes with me. So those w/ pets that u suspect have a TBI - rife w/ your pet!

We use Lemonade for detox since we like it anyway.
My wife did not respond to the last Rife treatment whatsoever. I could not understand why something that worked so well up to then, was not doing anything.
I reasoned that possibly she had a coinfection that was not susceptible to the frequencies. We had some Cumanda left so she started taking that again. It really worked well now after killing so much of the Lyme. She did not have many symptoms before but she is even in better shape now.
After using the GB-4000 for a different condition on myself and getting inconsistent results I began to suspect the machine was malfunctioning. I took apart the leads and discovered two breaks in the wires that would make and break connections randomly. If you have one of these machines I would strongly recommend replacing the cheap aluminum wire with a good grade of fine stranded copper wire designed for flexing. The cheap wire will fail eventually so get rid of it. I am not the only person that has had this problem.
We will keep using the Cumanda since it is working very well at this time. When that does not work anymore we will continue with the GB-4000 now that it is back in working order.

I don't know - I'm still scared of it.
Last night I ran some settings for nematodes, and holy cow, did I feel tension in my body.
I would think this was good, except I feel this same tension no matter what far-out disease setting I pick.
The only setting that feels safe to me so far is the lymph cleanse setting of 10,000. I sometimes can stop an allergic reaction by using that one, but still, I fear we don't know enough about these to say without a doubt that, while killing pathogens, other cells are not being affected.
I'd say follow your gut with this one. Sometimes when I'm having some sort of allergic reaction, it's worth it to risk it by at least using the lymph cleanse setting.
But then again, I think the higher the setting, the safer it is - so that may be why I can tolerate the lymph cleanse setting of 10,000 - yet most other setting make me worse.
Just be careful - I can 'feel' cell phones and wireless internet - and I'm telling you, these signals may look safe, but I have my doubts.
