Hello everyone! I'm new here (well, I've been lurking for a month or so!) and generally new to lyme treatment.
I recently found out, after experiencing pretty disabling symptoms on and off for the past 15 years, that I am dealing with a chronic lyme and babesia infection (mycoplasma, strep and parasites in addition...woo hoo!)
It makes a lot of sense given that my main symptoms have always been dysautonomia (POTS, specifically,) heart palpitations, disequilibrium (felt like I was on a boat moving up and down for months at a time,) episodes of tachycardia, PVCs, nerve pain. So it's good to have more of an idea about how to focus my treatment.
Prior to this I had been treating myself for all my mystery symptoms energetically mainly via herbs and detoxing and this always kept me 75%+ functional throughout the past 15 years... Until my latest huge crash in November that eventually led to further testing.
I recently started a lyme and babesia specific homeopathic protocol through Desbio. It's the series therapy nosodes. I tested positively to this specific treatment through bioresonance testing. I started up a couple weeks ago and so far so good.
I have LOTS of questions about homeopathy, it's so new to me, but I'll utilize the search function and save those for another time However, if anyone has any experience with Desbio, please feel free to share!
I also happened to JUST find out that I am dealing with 4 jaw cavitations (possibly 6) as well as a dead tooth. Diagnosed via CBCT scan. All of which I had no idea were a problem. I had an inkling that something may have been wrong as I've had some pretty significant jaw pain in my past, but my previous dentist never caught it.
I am moving forward with scheduling cavitation surgery. I'm just feeling very confused now as to whether the vast majority of my symptoms are related to the cavitations or from lyme/babesia?
Will going through my homeopathic protocol even have a positive effect if I have all these jaw necrosis dragging me down?
Or should I pause and wait til after?
Has anyone had significant improvements following cavitation surgery?
Thank you to all for any input. I look forward to talking and sharing more with all of you!

A dentist suggested cavitation surgery for me but as I had no jaw pain I did not get it done. I didn’t trust the “ holistic” dentist that was going to do the surgery. If done improperly it can cause nerve damage.
Perhaps take care of the dead tooth after getting a second opinion from a different dentist before you jump into fixing the cavitation. This is just my opinion.
I used DESBIO not to ingest but as part of a nosode when I did infrared light treatment.
I do use a lot of homeopathics for detoxing such as Pekana products etc. But I feel I am past the stage of killing Lyme.
Sorry I am not much help. Best wishes.

Hiker- I did hear that the nosodes could be used that way. Did you have success with that treatment?
I hadn't considered nerve damage from the cavitation surgery. I'll be sure to ask a lot of questions about that when I consult. And will only be booking my surgery once I am 100% comfortable! But I do feel in my gut that it needs to be done.
If I do, I'd be traveling out of state to one of the more world renowned biological dds to get it done...so if I do decide to do it, would make sense to do it all.

I know people who nothing worked until the cavitations were taken care of. Bacteria had a safe place to hang out and not get killed.
Thankfully I just had one tooth that needed oxygen therapy. I can't say that helped, but it was also a recently pulled tooth, that my lyme got much worse after removal of. Take it for what it's worth.
