Germany. I'm better now going on three years. You do have to continue photons for some time after returning.

My two kids and I were tx in Germany and are so much better.

We also continued tx after coming home.

Germany, definitely. I have a friend that just finished up 9 months of iv abx (under a top doc) and she still cannot hold a conversation and remember what she has said. Now everyone is different, but I would go to Germany in a heartbeat.

Can anyone talk about their experiences in more detail? Are you treating with your own blood or using the nosodes?

I would choose Germany also. It would be cheaper than doing IV for a year and your gut would be better off too!

Definitely Germany !!!
Manybites did you go long time ago? Because I know that before Dr. Woitzel did not treat co-infections.
Now he starts treating with the blood right away and when Borrelia tests negative he uses co-infections nosodes.

When I was there, there was a woman from US who have told me that her daughter, who only had Babesia went to see Dr.W. last year and photon treatment put her Babesia completely into dormancy.

Once I got back, I used some DesBio nosodes, but the blood worked better.

Manybites, aren't you from Europe originally? I wonder if you have different strains than here in the US.......

You probably have a point about the bites....your name is "Manybites" so I assume that means you have been bitten many times and possibly picked up many strains of babesia and other?

Also it sounds like treating with your own blood may be the best anyway.....for coinfections at least?
