My right arm had been painful for several months consistantly.

Recently I kept using a heating pad on it and I felt the pains were moving, sometime I felt the pains had been driven into the bone.

Today I just noticed that my right arm is symptom-free!

How exciting!!

Cause I can kill them or drive them out by heating.

When they are on the run, they will be susceptible to killing.

Heat pads cause me to herx "grande" every time I use them.

But when I was hit by a truck walking my dog 8 years ago I was left in the road missing some fingers (and more).

The attending ortho said casually "well, we'll just have to take them all the way off".

To which I said (luckily awake) "you're off the job".

They found a hand surgeon who did a fine job reatatching my r two main fingers and stitching my hand back together. I used heat pads every nite to thin the blood and they healed (nerves too) quickly. I also could not tolerate pain meds and the heat took the pain away in about 10 days.

Now the hand is where the Bb has weakened me alot. Now that my bacteria load is hopefully coming down it may be time to get cooking again.

I did try some heat on my very weak legs a month ago and it actually weakened them further.

I would take a truck to a tick.

I used an infrared heat lamp on trouble spots on the body, and it worked well. I also used hot baths. Heat really helps Lyme.
