I've read so many times that Lyme sufferers experience intensified symptoms during full moons.
I'm wondering, can a new moon have this same effect?
I'm in remission, but still deal with icky symptoms now and then.
Yesterday and today....I am totally exhausted and anxious.
Then, I saw that yesterday was a new moon.
Could this be tied in?

It has been really weird lately. I don't typically keep track of the moon phases,
but when I saw this....I thought it might tie in.
The aches and anxiety had been pretty significant.
Coming out of a high stress situation as well, which has really upset me because I am so scared of letting the stress get to me.
Maybe a nice Epsom salt bath is in order.

My one doctor did bloodwork to test for parasites, but it all came back negative....
including 3 stool samples.
I know the blood testing isn't always the most accurate (understatement?), so it might still be a problem.
My LLMD wants me to try Wormwood for a few weeks and just see if anything happens.
Makes me nervous....not sure how strong this is, if it causes side effects, etc.

All the testing I did (lots) came back negative, yet I pass worms every day. So that tells you the testing just doesn't work for whatever reasons.
I remember just trying wormwood and it didn't produce much for me. It may have hit something microscopic though, I just didn't see anything. As far as side effects, for me herbs are gentle.
Now would be a really good time to treat, before and after the full moon as the parasites are having a big party reproducing. Wormwood helps, but it is best to hit them with all three: wormwood, black walnut, cloves so you kill the eggs too, otherwise you're wasting your time.

OMG....thank you for letting me know about the black walnut and cloves.
Yeah....to do all of that but not be killing the eggs would be a big waste of time.
I think my LLMD first wanted to see if I got results with the wormwood.....confirming that the parasites are actually there.
What does the black walnut do?
If I have them, I really want them gone. But the thought of passing them.....ugh....chills!

You're welcome. :) I know it sounds gross but it's easier if you look at it like a science experiment.
