I am currently looking into trying new supplements to help with these rough symptoms I'm experiencing.

I am currently taking 500mg of Curcumin 3 times daily, 3x485mg of cats claw 3xdaily, 2000mg of msm 3xdaily. I'd like to know what has worked from experience. After spending thousands at the er and cardiologist I'm needing some help.

Yes I know I need to see a llmd but being 23 and losing insurance right before I got sick in June I'm kinda tapped out.
Thanks

What infections and symptoms are you dealing with?
Are you responding to any of the remedies you mentioned here?

You might look into the Cowden Protocol through Nutramedix.

http://www.nutramedix.ec/ns/cowden-support-program

They have a special program for financial hardship which would cost 1/3 of the regular price and can be obtained through any doctor (does not have to be a Lyme-literate one), including chiropractors. You'd have to call Nutramedix for more information.

Here are more links for financial help:

"Financial Help and Other Information"

Call the Lyme Disease United Coalition at (800) 311-7518. They are very knowledgeable.

Also look on their website:

Scroll down for financial help available from various sources.

For anyone who qualifies as low income, www.lymetap.com will cover 75% of IGeneX test costs.

Since you're under 26, you could contact this organization:

This was written on their homepage:

Buhner books with many herbs, that are affordable.

I think Buhner is much better than Cowden, for Borrelia.

Cowden helped some with coinfections... but I think Buhner has been catching up recently.

Excellent idea to take MSM.

And Wow, you can take so much cats claw!! I would have been dead on that amount, but I know some people are stronger...

Don't you herx hell with cats claw?

Treat babesia (in case you have some symptoms).

I used photons and nosodes, self treated while waiting for an appointment (waiting list)... When my appoitnment finally came, I was symptomless, so didn't need to go!

Most people here use some sort of liver support (like bitter herbs, milk thistle, coffee enemas, etc).

Also magnesium (not any type, but good absorbable ones), is a must (I take citrate, but I know malate is also good). Some swear by magnesium chloride through the skin though...

I fared well with astragalus, cats claw, some japanese knotweed decoctions. All very inexpensive. Sometimes I added eleutherococcus.

I also fared well with constant Vit D3,during lyme.

Could you tell us which (Lyme) infections you're dealing with and which disorders (I.e stiff knees, floaters, sinus problems, etc.) you need to treat?
