You know I heard that there may be a "miracle" I don't know if anyones tried it but I spent $35 online for this "cure." I want to know if anyone's tried it.

Your supposed to take 12 1 gram salt tablets and 12 1000mg of vitamin c every hr for three days. Obviously you have to work up to this. They say you'll have diarhea and other side effects which they say is from the toxins leaving the body. This also stated that colonics will rid the toxins from the body (not that I want to do that, but if it works...)

So these experts say this will work, I'm going to get more vitamin c tomorrow and try to find salt tablets. Has anyone tried this? I'm gonna try and I'll let you know if my eyes get better, along with my other symptoms!

007,
Where did you here about this 3 day miracle cure?
The little reading I did on salt and c recommends
taking it for up to a year. And not hourly.

Hello everyone, i am new to the board.

My first symptom was blurred vision in R eye, that started in mid january, after a december trip to the NY catskills. I live in northern NJ. My vision is very blurry in this eye and i see clear trails, like lines and dots connected and floating, they look like GEL. it is like i always have hair in front of my eyes, things are constantly moving, a lot of spots. I have a lot of trouble focusing, like if i am at work at my computer and i lift my head to look across the room, everyone is hazy, but if i blink it will get somewhat better. i also have some dull pain around eyes, and eyes will get very bloodshot at times.. it also seems as if my eyes are bruised underneath, like where dark circles would be, very strange. i have seen an opthalmologist who said no optic neuritis, vision field test was normal, and he dismissed me with some dry eye in R eye. i have many other symptoms in other body part. i had 20/20 vision before the trip to NY. I am in the process of getting tested with igeneX. I hope something comes up! i am so sick of this battle to find a dx, all the drs. think i am nuts!

Peace.
Michelle

Good luck with your tests pru, and remember, if you do get a negative this doesn't mean you don't have Lyme.

One of my first symptoms was also blurry right eye, it has moved into my left eye over the last years or so, but my right eye is still worse than my left.

Good luck.

Thanks Chris. I ordered the initial lyme panel from igeneX because they say that is best to start with. I know of a good holistic neurologist in NYC that is affiliated with Gary Null, a famous nutritionist i follow. I will start to see him soon and begin a natural protocol. I cannot be bothered with antibiotics. What part of the UK are you from?

I used to see flashes of light. A bright light across my entire field of vision.

This went on for awhile (years). This symptoms went away completely but improvement was gradual (less frequent flashes till none.)

I havent had this symptoms probaly in at least a year and a half maybe longer.

I started getting same floaters when I was 14. By the time I was in my middish 20s

I always had atleast one black spot in my vision due to floaters.

I still notice floaters but either they are smaller or ther is less of them

cuz I don't have those big black spots floating across my vision anymore.

No problem. I'm from Kent, about 25 miles South East of London.
My LLMD is located in Bolton which is right up north so I have phone consultations.

I decided to start with Samento as treatment, been on it for 6 weeks now and something is certainly happening.

Had a big herx for about 4 weeks non-stop and I have had some very good days in the last week. I have seen slight improvments in my fatiuge, which is promising. But my aches, pains, vision problems, anxiety are still really bad.

I will probably be going on antibiotics in about 2 weeks as well as the Samento, I'm going to hit the buggers with everything. [Mad]

Good luck.

Samento is very good. I drink the cat's claw tea if ill and it really helps. Do you take it in the tincture form? How long have you been having symptoms?

Yep, I take the TOA-Free tincture form.

I was bitten in August 2002 and developed symptoms in November 2003 - so about two and a half years of symptoms.

It came on quite gradual at first, just triedness, light senstivity, anxeity and vision problems to begin with.

Then all the other symptoms came along.
Fatiuge, weakness, aches and pains, vision problems, heart palpitations, dizziness, vertigo, chest pain, back pain and a whole load of other strange symptoms.

The last 6 months have been the worst. I only got my diagnosis 6 weeks ago because I was misdiagnosed with CFS.
