I am reading Stephen Harrod Buhner's book Healing Lyme and he seems to think that the core treatment for Lyme, with or without abx, needs to take these three herb supplements.

Anyone does this and any experience you can share with me?

I read the book after 4 years on antibiotics had to end and slowly started the Andrgraphis with no problem until I got to the 4th pill per day which was at bedtime and it caused my heart to thump in my chest and echo in my ear all night and all day for about 2 months of pure hell so had to quit that too.

The knotweed didnt have any bad side effects or help so now Im only into his brain meds. I slowly started all of them and have been on total doses for about a month with no help with my dementia which the amnesia test said wasnt amnesia but a big memory probplem due to lyme. The doc who gave me the test in RI. said he has tested lots of lyme patients. Im going to give the herbs a few more months of hope befor I quit spending all the money for no help.

MariaA - Thanks for the link. It's a lot of information so I will have to spend some time reading through it.

sofylyme - oh uh...that doesn't sound very promising. I hope you find some relief soon.

I do know one thing thatin China, people use andrographis quite often. But I don't know how effective it is to Lyme.
