Hi Everyone!
I am here to tell my story (briefly) and answer any questions you might have.
When I got the bite that made me sick two years ago, I started the journey to end all journeys, to find a way thru the hell and get to the other side. You all know what I'm talking about.
Along the way, shortly after coming to lymenet, I heard about the Bionic 880 (thanks, Sixgoofy). I thought it sounded like it might be the answer for me, but I was too sick to make a trip like that.
I promised myself that if I got well enough to make the trip, I would go.
The thing with me is, my whole family has lyme and co's. And we didn't get it hiking a trail or at a far away park. We all got it in our backyard and it's inevitable we'll get bit over and over again.
So long term antibiotics, in our case, would be life long, treating bite after bite after bite. Not an option as far as I'm concerned. I needed an alternative!
So I treated with an LLMD, on abx for 13 months, treating babesia and bartonella, and got to a pretty good place. Then my husband lost his job and we lost health insurance. At that point, I started herbs and GSE. I was on them for 4 months and afraid I was slowly backsliding.
At that point, my husband and I decided that if I was ever to go to Germany, the time was now - before all our stashes (HA!) of money were gone.
I went to Germany in mid April and came back mid May. I was gone 3 weeks.
I had 5 treatments with a photon machine, a machine that shines photon light rays into the body at meridian points to give energy and even messages to weakened cells. The message in my case was given with Borrelia nosodes and told my own body to kill the borrelia. So the body actually does the work, not medicine or even the machine. The machine just gives the cells the energy and the message.
The thing I think is fantastic about the Bionic 880 is that it also has the ability to regulate hormones, which for lyme folks is pretty important. Messed up hormones (thyroid, adrenal, even pituitary) are much of our problem.
The doctor there uses energetic testing and diagnosed me with 5 different infections. He said I've had lyme at least 15 years which makes perfect sense to me. (My kids show signs of having been born with the bacteria.)
The doctor also used Ozone Therapy, pulling our blood, adding ozone, and putting it back in. It was absolutely, hands down, the best detox I've experienced! Amazing stuff! I wish it were available here.
And when I left, after the 5 treatments, he energetically tested me as having no more borrelia. The significance in that is that without borrelia in the soup, the soup is much more bland. I can testify that without lyme, I feel much more normal. I feel in control of the infections rather than the infections controlling me.
So I bought the Bionic 880 and brought it home. I am using it to finish my own treatment of coinfections and to treat my family.
How do I feel? I feel great! I have some mild symptoms of babesia still, but I am feeling great! I have a way to go to feel perfectly healthy again, but I'll get there. I am living my life - thank you, God!
I have some brain fog, slight fatigue and a few other little things but over all I have my life back and I feel like I've rejoined the land of the living.
While I was in Germany, I had the energy to make 2 weekend trips by bus and train, to walk every day around town and on trails, and to pull my luggage around after me. We didn't rent a car, just got everywhere by bus/train, and we were busy every day. We walked across town to the grocery store and carried our groceries home - it was great!
And my brain was able to go back and forth all day between German and English, translating for my traveling companion. Navigating the transportation was pretty big too, stretching my brain. I was pretty impressed with my little ol' brain!
These were things I haven't been able to do for so long and wasn't sure I'd ever do again.
Since I've been home, a bit of brain fog has crept back in but I have confidence that as soon as I find the detox combo that works best for me I'll get that good again and beyond it too!
In the last 4 weeks since I've been home, we have found and confirmed a significant mold problem in our house, so that's been an issue too, very likely contributing to fatigue and brain fog.
We are in the process of remediation and I've been feeling better and better.
So my journey to complete health is not over but the end is in sight, reachable!
I thank Jesus Christ for walking beside me on this journey and all the things that have come with it, and for leading me to this treatment and this level of health.

I'm glad it worked out for you!!
I had the same experience .... with bartonella and babesia minus the Lyme, the infections were no longer in control of me. I found that tonic water helped with the babs symptoms until the Bionic could handle them.
More later .... going to my daughter's softball game.

This is awesome! Thanks a lot for sharing this. I've always wondered about the bionic 880.
Can I ask you a couple of questions? 1) If someone bought the device, would they be able to do the complete therapy at home, or do they need the initial starting treatment by a special doctor?
2) Did you happen to see Dr I. W.?
3) Did you see your blood change colors after the ozone treatment?

17Hens--Great to hear you are doing much better!
I felt the bionic has been a key player as I regain my health.

James,
1. You could do it all from home. You'd have to get the machine and the borrelia nosodes and have an excellent detox plan, but it certainly would be possible to do it on your own. If you ever get to that point, I'm happy to share the protocol with you so you know exactly what to do.
2. Yup.
3. My blood may have changed colors slightly (it went from normal dark red to a lighter color like a strawberry shake).
But another American was there getting treatment who had major mold issues along with lyme and co's and she had huge changes.
Her blood was black and thicker than mud the first time she got ozone. It was so hard to pull, the machine shook and shook.
By her third treatment, it was flowing like normal and a pretty dark red color.
When she started therapy, she was barely able to walk on her own, focus, even speaking was hard. After the 5th treatment, she walked around town with us, went out for dessert and we had a grand old time. It was amazing! It literally saved her life.

Yes, you can use the Bionic on children. The machine has 4 strengths - 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%.
A small child or animal takes 25%.
Dr. W's treatment varies depending on what the patient needs (we're all different), but it cost me about $3500. Slightly more than the cost of some LLMD's first visit.
At first it sounded like a lot. But then I remembered what my family of 4 spent in a year - about $12000. This seemed very reasonable in that light.
Also, there are other doctors in Germany who treat lyme with the Bionic. Very good ones too. I think Dr. W.'s name is known because that's where the first Amerians happened to go and the rest followed.
You can read in Connie Strasheim's book of Dr. W. and another, a woman who sounds excellent. But there is a list with many more names of doctors who treat with the Bionic as well.
The two in Connie's book and the owner of the Bionic spent 8 years creating a protocol to treat lyme disease with the machine. 8 years of experience is worth a lot. And the success rate is over 90%.

This made me cry...seriously.
It made me cry because I'm so happy if is helping you get your life back and you can use it to help your family. Hallelujah!
Then it made me cry because I want it and I'm am way too sick to go to Germany. Boo
I think I will talk to my hubby about investing in one. I need to try something or I will die.
Do you think it would help someone like me who is so far down in the depths? Or just people who can function and just need that extra something to get them over the hump?
How does this compare to Rife?
Thanks for sharing this!!! Much appreciated.

Hambone, rife kills bacteria, photons make your body stronger so it can kill the bacteria (basically).
I didn't have the benefit of ozone treatment when I went. Back when I went, he didn't use it on everyone. I wish he had. I still had LOTS of detox to do when I got back.
The benefits of going to Germany is that you do get the ozone. Also, two of the nosodes he uses there are stronger than you're allowed to use here, in fact, he can't allow those two out of his office even in Germany. So, I would go to Germany if you can. If you can't, I think you can do it here, but it might take longer for the above reasons.
You can't buy a Bionic here, but a PE1 is the same type technology.

First of all, Six, please let me know if I'm posting info that I should be PMing. I'm excited and I want to be honest with people but I want to follow the rules too. Please feel free to edit and correct me so I know for the next time.
Hambone, that was my reaction when I first heard about it. Hugs to you and I'm so sorry for your suffering. For all of our sufferings.
I dont' claim this to be the magic bullet for everyone. I would say this is very strong stuff and you need to be prepared for it. Anyone who starts this on their own needs to have excellent detox support planned out.
Hambone, I don't believe you could be much farther down than the lady who was in Germany with me. It saved her life.
I do believe the bionic and the ozone therapy was crucial for her, but now she's back at home, starting to treat co's with the PE-1 and getting detox from her LLMD. Hopefully that will work for her. I don't know if the PE-1 regulates hormones like the Bionic does. I think that's half the battle.
I don't know much about Rife. Maybe someone else can answer that.
Feel free to PM me, Hambone. Do you live near me at all?

So Happy for you! This probably has been posted before, but how much did it cost to do the treatment in Germany (not buying the machine).
I have been wanting to go to Germany for a long time this may be a good excuse to finally go.

I know this lady she is talking about and I don't know that it's possible to be closer to death than she was. I was really worried that she wouldn't be able to make it over there. I have no idea how she managed the flight by herself. It did save her life. I couldn't believe when I saw pictures on her Facebook page how much she had changed over there .... that she was walking around, etc.
If I were *that* sick, I would want the supportive treatments. I think the ozone helped her as much as the Bionic, probably due to her toxic mold exposure. Also, the treatment is intense, I would want the detox iv's as well.

17 Hens, there wasn't much talk about the Bionic regulating hormones when I went over there. I still have to take 1 grain of Armour thyroid per day. Do you know how to treat that?

There is just no way could go to Germany.
I could SWEAR when I first went to my Integrative LLMD last year, I saw a sign in his office about Ozone therapy.
But he never said anything about it and I never thought to ask because I assumed it had zero to do with my issues. Should I be asking about this? Or is the Ozone Therapy over there different than it is here?
17hens I soooo wish I was near you. I'm in Florida.
Thank you all for answering my questions. I truly don't mean to make this about me. I'm really happy you are feeling better and found something that will benefit your whole family.

Six,
From the literature I was given - "The Bionic 880 stimulates cells, adjusts hormones (beta-endorphins, cortisol, serotonin, and DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone)), modulates the immune system and provides for the harmonization of body and psyche."
"The radiated photons are absorbed by the skin, multiply in the body and spread everywhere. They reach the brain passing the branchings of the nervous system as well as the spinal cord and harmonize (in the meaning of modification) the production of different hormones here: endorphins, serotonin.
Using other connections the photon signals arrive at the adrenal gland and modify the production of DHEA and cortisol."
James,
Most people there speak a bit of English and some speak excellent English, so no, it's not impossible. I'd say the hardest thing is taking a trip like that with limited energy or brain power. For a healthy person, it's a very do-able trip.
I've been there many times before growing up and I speak German, so it was much easier for me than most I think.
Anyone who goes over should take a friend along. You'll need to either drive while there or take the bus (45 minutes between guesthaus and dr's office), get groceries, cook, etc. Someone to help is a must IMO.
I know this is putting myself out there but... having been there, knowing the ropes now, speaking the language, having previous travel experience in Germany, and having a heart for my fellow sufferers, I am open to discuss the possibility of accompanying someone (and their traveling buddy) to get over there and settled. My traveling expenses would need to be covered and a little for my time (per my husband!).
I am more than willing to explain any details and answer any questions if you do it all on your own.

I also wish that ozone therapy would be available in the US. Early practitioners of ozone were harshly persecuted in the US, and two very important ones were murdered before they could publish their books about ozone.
This is just another example of the corruption present in the US healthcare system.

Wow, James, that is scary stuff. I had no idea. I found it to be fabulous.
After my bionic followed by ozone treatments, I was ready to run laps around my healthy friend - it was truly amazing and great to feel so good again!

I dont't know why people think ozone therapy is not available in the U.S. There may not be a lot of docs who do this, but hubby had 12 ozone treatments back in 2003. This was after his diagnosis but before he had had any antibiotics.
Personally for him the IV ozone treatments were pretty useless and just cost a lot of money for very little if any benefits. I think it is a lot like IV hydrogen peroxide -- more beneficial for viral issues than bacterial problems.
Probably the best way to find someone who does ozone treatments is to look for an ACAM doc at the website below. It might be listed as oxidation therapy -- just call around or check the various docs websites and you can probably find several docs who offer this in the U.S.
About half way down the page is the find an ACAM physician request.
Do a search and narrow it down by location or therapy offered.
If you do an advanced search and only enter the word ozone on the specialty line (leaving location and eveything else blank) 84 names come up -- some are not in the U.S. though.

That's interesting, Bea. I didn't know it was allowed in the US. The FDA keeps saying repeatedly that ozone therapy is dangerous,and there are tons of stories of practitioners who lost their licenses and/or equipment. If you search for "FDA ozone therapy" there's a ton of info.
Do you know appx how much 1 session of ozone therapy costs on average in the US? Thanks
P.S. I also like ACAM doctors, but I didn't know they did ozone.

This is a very interesting thread. IT was exactly 2 years ago that I did the bionic 880 treatment. I live 2 1/2 hours from Dr. W's office. I had the 5 treatments. Some of the worst herxs of my life.....and after five treatments, it was clear I needed more treatments.
The doctor said he didn't want to continue unless I tested my home for "emissions," but I don't believe emissions were the problem. Even people who live in his "guest house" which blocks most emissions stay away all day out shopping. They get emissions as well.
Doc wanted me to call this man to come test my home and then tell me what equipment I needed to make my home condusive to the therapy.
I stopped the treatment at that point, but I tell you, I would have taken another 10 treatments. In my bones, I knew that huge things were happening. Being very overweight and infected for so long....even the doc said I was a bad case. Very bad.
So, that was the end of my bionic 880 journey. I would have wanted it to continue. AT that time, buying the machine was Eur 8,000 I believe. So it has come down a bit? If I am remembering correctly.
As I am currently in a mess with my treatment with no quality of life anymore, I think of the bionic 880 frequently.
Keep us posted on how you do. Very interesting indeed!!! Very happy for you. :-)

I just used my PE-1 for the first time today. Wanted to make sure I had the Meyer's Cocktail so that I didn't have quite the herx reactions I have had previously. I'll let you know how it goes as I keep going!
Personally, I thought the ozone infusion was fantastic! It was actually the reason I was referred by my physician to get OUT of the U.S. for treatment.
The actual reason for needing the ozone, however, was that I had full-body mold toxicity. When my blood was drawn on the first day, it was LITERALLY black. You could hear the machine trying VERY hard to pull the blood from my vein. My home health nurse had been -- for the last six months -- calling my blood "that black sludge we call your blood" when she was drawing it.
When the ozone was infused? A beautiful bright strawberry (even brighter than that, though) red.
During the second treatment, my blood was still opaque, but I could see just a HINT of a purple color to it this time.
By my fifth time? I ALMOST looked like I had real blood vs. black sludge!!
At this point, though, my body feels very "hungry" for the treatment again. Going to have to find some of the websites so that I can see if I actually CAN get some ozone infusion intravenously in the U.S.
While I am longing to go back to Germany -- particularly if 17Hens and her traveling companion are there at the same time -- it is REALLY not in our budget!!

lymewreck36: Dr. W. wanted me to FLY THIS GUY TO THE U.S. to test the emissions on a condominium we are considering purchasing. Ummmm, if I don't have the money to return for treatment, WHAT MAKES HIM THINK I CAN FLY THIS MAN INTO THE U.S. AND PAY HIM TO ANALYZE THE EMISSIONS HERE????!!!!
The good part about my being SO sick was that I literally stayed at the apartment most of the time. I was subjected to VERY few EMF's.

Mary, thank you for your well wishes.
I'm so sorry you needed more treatments that you weren't able to get.
Could you go to another doctor for Bionic treatments?
If you're thinking about it, craving it, your body is probably trying to send you a message.

Thanks
( You shined a little bit of light on my crappy week. Even if this doesn't pan out for me, I'm so glad it is helping others. )

I am considering this for my wife. But I am a big believer in treating the worms/parasites first or at least concurrently. Could anyone talk about how this Germany doc or other similar Bionic-Germany doc deal with parasites/worms. Do they ignore them? Do they treat them, if so what timing and how?

I don't speak German. It would have been easier if I did, but I did okay.

It was recommended that I treat parasites and metals before treatment.
The Dr. never mentioned it to me, but my lymenet family who had gone before me did.
I treated w/ Parastroy for 4+ months and had my amalgams removed before I went. I will continue Parastroy when I'm able and detox metals after that.
While there, I asked the Dr. if amalgams had to be removed before treatment as my hubby has not had them removed. The dr. said it's better to test energetically first. He said for some people, amalgams are not an issue. Only if they test badly should they be removed.
I will say that during treatment I got itchy bumps on my scalp. I had had similar things when I drank a cup of potent parasite tea from my neighbor. I never got them with Parastroy thankfully.
It's been 6 or 7 weeks since they came out during treatment and they are still here. In fact, they have now spread onto my face (and I'm not too happy!).
I don't know if they are parasites or toxins trying to get out. Either way, they're not too popular with me.
This doctor never talked lyme with me. It was a little psychology about illness and then bionic and ozone and some detox IVs and bam, you're done. His tools were fabulous.
If you want more whole body care, I'd say read what Connie Strasheim says about Dr. K. in Northern Germany.

A very important part of treatment that I think gets missed when people consider treating themselves from home (and I totally get that thinking) is the 3 weeks of wonderful living during treatment.
The apartment where we stayed, suggested by Dr. W., was a big part in my healing.
The little village is deep in the black forest, in a clearing on top of a mountain (think Blue Ridge). THe air was clean and clear. The sun shined from 4:30am until 10pm. There were walking and biking trails all around town, thru the woods, from one town to another. Always a new path to explore. And this coming from a woman who barely walked a mile altogether in the last 2 years!
But best of all, there was NO stress! No kids, no hubby, no dishes (well, my traveling friend took care of most of them), barely any computer or phone, no TV, lots of laughing, lots of comraderie, lots of caring and helping.
It was wonderful, just wonderful. We cried when we left.
For the last 2 years, I thought I'd never have another vacation, never be well enough. This one shot me into the direction of good health like a slingshot!

Hey hens,
So glad to hear about your successful journey. In regards to the bumps on the scalp and face, they are most likely parasites. Mine pushed right through my scalp with aggressive tx of herbs and salt/c.
The good thing with doing the salt/c is that it flushes them out of the colon, especially at higher doses.
As GiGi has stated many times, the parasites are carrying heavy metals, fungi, bacteria and yeast. so it is really important to get them first.
Sending you continued good thoughts of healing.
Gael

This would be nice. I went with two other Lyme patients. We rented a car together, went to the grocery and doctor together, and did a little siteseeing together.

Hey Hens!! I think you are ABSOLUTELY right about the environment. When I was talking to my LLMD, he said he may just refer his patients who are not as sick as I was to go stay with Karin when he suspects mold is masking the true illnesses.
Hambone: When I left here, I could barely hold my head up off the pillow. I was told by my LLMD because of the mold toxicity that I had approximately 6-8 wks to live if I didn't get out of the U.S. for treatment. That was four weeks before I left. That being said, the best quote to describe my going to Germany by myself came from a really good friend of mine -- friends since age 12: "She's crazy with a tailwind of brave." LOL
I was fortunate that 17Hens got there shortly after I did. She helped UNBELIEVABLY with translation issues! Of course, we did get a good chuckle when my "sign language" (and not the offensive type) worked really well!!!!
In retrospect, I had NO BUSINESS going there by myself. The airlines were wonderfully accommodating to my disabilities, but at the train station? You're on your own. Trying just to get from the platform to the central portion of the station to meet my ride was almost impossible.
Personally -- and not just because I want 17Hens to get to go to Germany again (!), I would recommend taking her as your traveling companion. She helped me through a pretty nasty seizure one night after treatment. I didn't know it until I woke up -- then I thought I was at the doctor's office because I knew she had an appointment that day -- but she was a LOT of help.
I can't stress enough getting the treatment you need --- whatever that is. I went from being fully wheelchair-bound pre-diagnosis (misdiagnosed for six years while spiraling downward) to partially wheelchair-bound to walking 3 kilometers when I was in Germany.
It is NOT the gait I used to have. It never will be. I have too much permanent neurological damage. I'm a Physical Therapist and I could tell you every MINUTE detail of the differences!!! It is independent walking, though, and it feels GOOD.
I can now play with my almost three year-old granddaughter -- really PLAY -- and we dance together! She is still a little confused that Grammy went away very, very sick and came back able to dance. That one has her perplexed.
I purchased my PE-1 through the folks at Lymehub.com. I thought -- and still think -- they are lovely people. Additionally, I received information from Photoenergetics as well as supportive sites, etc. from them, as well. For my situation, it was the PERFECT purchasing solution. Additionally, I was able to get my PE-1 somewhat quicker through the effort from the folks at Lymehub.
Whatever you choose, I wish you the best. These diseases are NOT for the faint of heart. It took my family a very long time to fully understand how sick I was. They are just now coming to the realization that my life really WAS about to come to a grinding halt. Not that I was doing much "living" for a couple of years, anyway.
Please take care of you.
-------------------- I will beat these awful diseases. I understand that I have permanent damage because of some very under-educated physicians, but eventually I WILL lead a healthy life again. There is a reason I am here. It will be revealed to me in due time. Posts: 20 | From Louisville, KY | Registered: Sep 2009
