Bad mood; Ketek caused liver enz to raise three times the level. Taken off-put on Zithro and minocycline(can't take mino--in sun belt and too hard on my hiatal hernia and stomach.)
What is upsetting is the Ketek really helped all my brain stuff. I now am misspelling stuff; can't remember anything, and am depressed.
Told to take milk thistle too, but can't tolerate it in my sen stomach.
Any ideas???

Are you taking good probiotics ? Perhaps, you have yeast issues that need to be cleared up ?

I can't tell you to try an expensive product like the one I use for liver enzymes, but maybe you could look at the ingredients. I've been on Dr. Zhang's Hepa Formula 2 for two years now, and it's the only reason my enzymes have stayed normal. The active ingredient is schisandra, although it's part of an herbal mix.

I also take phosphatidylcholine (i.e. highly refined lecithin), trans CoQ10, and handfuls of NAC. Milk thistle never did anything for me.

Green Darkness,

I was doing a search about lyme and bi polar today and I came across one of your posts that said you posted an article about it here.

I tried to search for it but had no luck do you know what the post was called?

I am interested in this article for two reasons one my son has lyme with neuro involvement and Bi polar runs in his fathers side of the family.

Two the pastor of my church son had lyme and he took him to a homeopathic doc and was cured he said. Then he was bit again this time had no signs or symptoms but now they said they are going to take him for testing they think he is bi polar.

I myself totally disagree and I think its the lyme I don't think it went away.

Are you allergic to penicillin?

If not, you could try Bicillin LA injections
