My LLND uses it for lyme so I would assume that it can.

Have a bottle, but haven't gotten around to trying this with hubby yet -- have read that it works best with arthritic type symptoms.

What dose are you taking? -- was reading "The Book of Herbal Wisdom" in a health food store yesterday. The suggested dose is only 1 - 3 drops 1 - 3 times daily for a maximum of 9 drops daily.

I started this about two weeks ago. Was cationed to start slowly as it can cause a die-off reaction.

I have been jittery and sleeping poorly, also increased back pain. I assme a herx.

May I ask what you you are taking teasel root for?

Yes!!!

I had been off of it for two or three weeks, just got a new bottle, and I think I had a herx.

The tincture is hard to find.

I found this guy on eBay- he's a naturopath who got Lyme and has been using this and Buhner herbs (I think): http://stores.ebay.com/Herb-Works
he sells teasel tincture in several sizes.

The teasel he sells now is wildcrafted (ie picked in the wild, though 'wildcrafted' sometimes also means that people do things to encourage the plants to grow in the wild), but he's about to start growing it as well.

We should support him if he's successful in growing the plant, as none of the commercial manufacturers of tinctures seem to be making this one.

I guess yes too!

I used it for a while and felt improvement (no clear herxes though). But it's got to be made of fresh herb, I suppose, to work well.
