Can we make things worse by treating and pissing these buggers off?

I've heard treating parasites successfully can be just as hard as treating Lyme & Co's.

Would love to hear opinions of those who lost a ton of weight and treated with anti-parasitic medications.

I don't know how to word this well, but I have an affinity to you for some reason so I'll try.

My daughter is connected to an extremely experienced successful Lyme literate medical doctor.

I don't want to share who or what the protocol is, sorry, but
Ivermectin
is very important with Bart,
and is a piece it seems.

My .02 cents from the Internet.

--------------------
Lyme positive PCR blood, and
positive Bartonella henselae Igenex, 2011.
low positive Fry biofilm test, 2012.
Update 7/16- After extensive treatments,
doing okay!

If you decide not to treat with prescripton drugs, in "Healing Lyme," Stephen Buhner states that Artemisinin (wormwood) "possesses a broad antiparasitic action and may indeed be more potent in the treatment of Lyme Disease than is
currently recognized." p.183.

I found it to be very effective by spending a weekend drinking Wormwood tea (3 cups per day). Not for those with a weak stomach, believe me! It would be important for anyone doing that to take a heaping Tbl of yogurt before and after the tea to coat the stomach.

And surprise, I've heard that about Ivermectin too. Not sure why it treats Bartonella though.
