Thanks, I only read the dataq sheets, plan on reading more throughly b/f starting. Just ordered them today.
J called me yesterday (?), still not sure why for sure. After my phone consult last week I was sort of bummed, maybe he thought about some of things he said.
Anyway, he wants me to start on the A-Lyme. But he never told me how much, or anything about dosing. I just thought I'd start with 1 drop a day.
I was excited about these, but now it getting me a little scared after reading how potent they are. Are you still on any abx?

Only concern with AL Complex is the ingredient Astragalus.
Buhner has spoken many times on the auto-immune risks of taking Astragalus in late-stage/chronic Lyme cases.
He says it's great if you catch it early and/or are preventing.
But at this point... if it helps some out there... more power to em!
These herbs look great. I'll be starting on A-Bart soon (along with my maximum dosage knotweed)

Is anyone doing these herbs on any abx too, or the herbs only? And I do have very late-stage chronic lyme.

Maybe this isn't smart with the holidays coming up. If you herxed, then stopped them would you recoup right away? What kind of herxes did you have? All this would be so helpful, as to what I might expect.
As per LLMD I started with AL Complex at 1 drop and drank 1/3 glass, next day 2/3 next day 1 drop and set there for 5 days and had a physical herx beyond belief - backed off and felt it cleared in 2 days
I stupidly went right up to 2 drops 2 x day and herxed neurologically after 3 days (symptoms that I have never experienced before), a very unusual severe herx have been off for 3 days and it has no cleared.....Will see what happens and have been told to restart at 1/3 glass again - My own fault as I upped too quickly

Lymebrain here. Do you mean 1/3 and 2/3 as in water? Makes a difference how much water you take with them?

RE:Astragalus - I did see something about this, am I correct in thinking it could cause arthritic problems?

Yes so you put a drop in a glass of water and drink 1/3 or 2/3 of the water
Some can only tollerate this small amount

Hi keltyl, I'm taking A-L and A-Bab with some antibiotics. They didn't tell me exactly how much to start with either. I didn't think to ask at the time so I was glad to see that the instructions they sent with the herbs explained it all.

Sammy, the teleclass links are great. Thanks.
So I learned they are coming out with a BioFung and a BioMyco. Wouldn't it be nice if these were the missing link to LD as they say.
