someone referred me to this person on here and he is great. i saw his dad also, who is the doctor, but didn't necessarily need to. recommended i do adrenal shots for 6 weeks but might be too pricy; do you think their adrenal supplement would be fine enough? doc just said shots will work a lot faster but not sure it's worth it
my adrenal glands are functioning at 54%, hypothalamus 57%, thyroid 68%, hippocampus 67%. (70% and above is optimal)
this is what he found filaria parasite babesia candida lyme bart ehrlichia corynbacter liver virus coxsackie
i can't wait to start the first kit, it will be for filaria. i am confused because i thought lyme was complicated to treat and can take months to years to get rid of but for the lyme it is said so far i will take two kits (2 months?) for it. doctor said people with iv were not getting better after a long time and got better with this
then there are check ups after certain kits are finished. on their page, i saw someone who posted a lot and she said she was put into remission with this treatment. it'll be herbal and homeopathic treatments with specific instructions along with chlorella drops, a magnet, etc.
i was told the candida is intracellular, meaning it is systemic. is it systemic in most people with candida overgrowth? (leaky gut?) why is it the internet says systemic candiasis only happens to patients with HIV and is an emergency?
this is the diet i was given for the candida treatment time
1. no sugar but stevia 2. green apples, berries, avos, grapefruit, lemons, limes, coconut allowed 3. virtually all meats 4. butter, yogurt, cream cheese, unsweetened whipping cream, sour cream 5. all veggies, NO potatoes and legumes 6. quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat allowed
okay so my questions concerning the diet
1. CAN i have green apples although a source of sugar or not? (i know should limit to once a day, read so many contradicting info on this) 2. should i be able to have a little bit of quinoa and whole grain rices, or should i just stick to the quinoa OR none at all? (read should avoid all for at least 2 weeks) 3. concerning dairy: cut out all dairy, even goat cheese or not? is cream cheese, sour cream ok or not? 4. and i read some places sweet potatoes in moderation, some say none at all. what about legumes?
i guess the question is how strict should i be with the diet? with small natural sources of sugar and amounts of carbs.
any input would be very appreciated!! i might as well follow the diet given to me, but am unsure about the fruits, grains allowed, and dairy allowed. this is where i find huge variations on the internet. and then some people claim they get better without diet and just using s boulardii and a biofilm breaker, etc
should i follow the diet during all of the treatment or just the candida aspect of it?

- " adrenal shots for 6 weeks"
This could be very damaging - and it could send you to a place of no return. Be extremely careful about that advice.
I highly question the advise of this person. Strongly question. I cannot imagine a LL medical practitioner recommending adrenal shots before someone has been on good adrenal support supplements first. "working faster" does not ease my mind.
I wish you could see an ILADS educated LLMD.
Yes, many of the things on your diagnosis list are common for those with lyme and, yes, they do need addressing. But if someone is wanting to shoot you up with adrenal shots, I question their full understanding of someone with the complications that lyme presents. -

- My advice for diet is to eat food - DELICIOUS food from good sources. Make sure that each meal contains some of each of the three food groups
low sugar fruits, a little AFTER the meal. Frozen berries are low glycemic. these have nutrients that are important to us, antioxidants, etc.
Legumes should be fine as they are rich in protein and complex carbohydrates, but not from a can. Make your own. Legumes are excellent in nutrients that you need and are low glycemic.
But don't make legumes the mail focus, add a bit into soups, stews, where the stars are veggies.
make recipes that you enjoy, with culinary herbs and spices. sautéing onions, garlic, ginger makes it magic.
Eat two snacks a day, maybe 3, of foods that you might include in a meal. Keep it basic be very varied.
Biomeridian testing, regarding foods, can be helpful but it's a point in time. You'll find what works for you and what does not. Keep to the 3 food groups, in proportion and stick to low glycemic but foods that are rich in nutrients, full of flavor. -

i believe it is live cell therapy. so it is not synthetic cortisone if that is what it sounded like
do you think having chili from work would be okay? i know sweet potatoes, legumes, etc are starchy so am unsure to include them or not.
if i have candida would it be a bad idea to take antibiotics? i wonder if the few months i was on abx caused it, but i did take a probiotic once a day as told to by the dr. and i did take diflucan for a month.
if i have a salad at work, the choices available are olive oil, dressings, red wine vinegar being one of them. is that not allowed? (i know apple cidar vinegar is ok)
and what about paleo snacks containing honey as an ingredient. maybe i should just follow the diet handed to me and just stick to that and not worry about it. i like legumes and sweet potatoes though, and rice. oh and cheese...
