I am currently on IV rocephin for 30 days, but have a strong suspicion that I have bartonella due to symptoms of anxiety, eye probems and chest pain. I am not too excited about more antibiotics but wonder if others have found a way to treat bartonella alternative treatments. It is not listed as one of the ones that responds to salt/ vit c Any suggestions

My lyme doc suggested NS Reservetrol
Bone Set Red Root teasel Root
I was playing phone tag with the source he suggested getting it from.
But, then my service dog got sick and funds went to hopefully get her well.
I have been taking reservetrol and do think it is helping.
My shaklee director donated 2 bottles of shaklee's vivx to me which is reservetrol.
Looked at my notes again and noticed they said helps with bart and cognitive

I used the DesBio Bart series remedy. It worked very well for me. Bad herx though on the second week.

Cuffee,
My bart and babs both have responded to the salt/c protocol. This protocol works on the deepest cellular level.
It is giving me my life back. I have been on it for 2 1/2 yrs. It is the only thing that has helped. I did 4 yrs of oral antibiotics and 6 mos IV rocephin.
Also did IVIG for 2 yrs and 6 mos of strong Chinese and South American herbs. Like anything with this disease, it takes patience and persistance.
If you need more info let me know,
Gael

My daughter is the lymie and she did a round of the Deseret Bart remedy in the summer and really did respond.
She took a break and we have just started another round of the bart remedy and she is herxing more on this round.
About 30 minutes after the first vial, she ran 100.3 fever and she never runs fever--always low grade. She has had a fever everyday for a couple of hours since then. She has swollen lymph glands all over, so something is happening.

If you consider the salt protocol, be sure to have kidney function and heart rhythm checked first by your doctor and discuss it with him. And, if you are diabetic, excess salt would be contraindicated.

As you'd want to learn more about anything you consider, you can also read medical abstracts about each of the items in the two books above at PubMed: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez

Thank you all. Those are great suggestions. I have Buhler's book on order.

Instead of Resveratrol, I took the whole herb Japanese knotweed in decoctions, I find it much better as my body accepts it better. Buhner recommends whole herb for bart too, not resveratrol only.
Check an old thread of mine, under "bartonella alternative protocol" I think I was still posting under hardynaka (screenname), I got loads of suggestions there.
Bart is a difficult critter and in my opinion needs multiple approach to get rid of, no single bullet gets it. Somehow, the treatment for me went together with borrelia treatment (I feel the two have a strong synergy), and when bart finally went for good, so did borrelia simultaneously. I had been bitten many times and got multiple times infected with bart (I think I can find more ticks infected with bart than borrelia now).
In the previous years, I couldn't get rid of bart, and coincidently borrelia too, never disappeared. That's why I'm guessing on the synergy.
I find that to attack bart and borrelia, it is not aggressive treatment that does the job (like with babesia and many other coinfections, for example). It is gentle, long and multiple approach that does, in my opinion. You gotta keep changing remedies.
Bart returned once but very low profile after it disappeared first. My doctor found it in energetic tests, but it disappeared fast (I don't think I treated for longer than couple of days), but borrelia still returns from time to time and gets wild.
