Two days for Lyme??? [dizzy] [Eek!]

Tell her to find a LLMD and to do research on candida/yeast.

Long standing Lyme can suppress the immune system, allowing the yeast to take over....hence the itching.
=======================

DIET, DIET, DIET is the key. Then, be sure to follow the 5 step plan outlined below. It was developed by my naturopath. It works.

Candida diet and elimination:

Lyme symptoms list compared with yeast symptoms
http://flash.lymenet.org/ubb/Forum1/HTML/021202.html

"Successful control and elminiation of a Candida Albicans overgrowth requires a multifaceted program as described below. Failure to follow ALL the steps simultaneously will result in slow progress and will lengthen healing time significantly. The program should be tailored to the individual and must balance the need to eliminate the Candida and deprive it of its food source while insuring proper nutrition for the individual."

Five Steps to Candida Elimination:

1. You must starve it into submission by eliminating its food source.


2. You must kill it with anti-fungal herbs and supplements. [e.g....garlic, onion, caprylic acid, Pau D'Arco capsules or tea, clove, grapefruit seed extract, olive leaf extract, oil of oregano, tea tree oil, Echinacea, Goldenseal, black walnut, MSM, barberry root, uva ursi, neem leaf, biotin]

3. You must reestablish the proper balance and quantity of probiotic bacteria in the digestive tract. [...multi-strain lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidus capsules with FOS should be taken between meals to maximize repopulation of the digestive tract by beneficial bacteria.]

4. You must reestablish proper levels of all B vitamins (yeast free) and utilize other immune enhancing supplements to boost immune system function. [e.g ... B complex vitamins (yeast free), biotin, beta 1-3 glucan, colostrum, maitake mushroom, vitamins A, C, E, zinc and selenium]

5. You must cleanse and heal the digestive tract to promote proper elimination of toxins and Candida and assimilation of nutrients. [e.g...chlorophyll, MSM, omega 3 fatty acids found in flax seed and salmon oils, GLA found in borage, evening primrose and black currant oils. Pantothenic acid, digestive enzymes between meals]

Yes to the above!

I would only add that anal itching is a symptom of roundworm infestation.

this is serious for him, but i got this tonight so sharing this "funny" TRUE story!!

I LOVE MY JOB . . . . . .

If you don't laugh out loud after you read this you are in a coma! This is even funnier when you realize it's real!

Next time you have a bad day at work think of this guy.

Rob is a commercial saturation diver for Global Divers in Louisiana . He performs underwater repairs on offshore drilling rigs.

Below is an E-mail he sent to his sister. She then sent it to radio station 103.2 on FM dial in Ft. Wayne , Indiana , who was sponsoring a worst job experience contest. Needless to say, she won.

Hi Sue,

Just another note from your bottom-dwelling brother.

Last week I had a bad day at the office. I know you've been feeling down lately at work, so I thought I would share my dilemma with you to make you realize it's not so bad after all.

Before I can tell you what happened to me, I first must bore you with a few technicalities of my job.

As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea. I wear a suit to the office. It's a wet suit. This time of year the water is quite cool. So what we do to keep warm is this: We have a diesel powered industrial water heater. This $20,000 piece of equipment sucks the water out of the sea. It heats it to a delightful temperature.

It then pumps it down to the diver through a garden hose, which is taped to the air hose. Now this sounds like a darn good plan, and I've used it several times with no complaints.

What I do, when I get to the bottom and start working, is take the hose and stuff it down the back of my wet suit. This floods my whole suit with warm water. It's like working in a Jacuzzi.

Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my butt started to itch. So, of course, I scratched it. This only made things worse. Within a few second s my butt started to burn. I pulled the hose out from my back, but the damage was done. In agony I realized what had happened.

The hot water machine had sucked up a jellyfish and pumped it into my suit. Now, since I don't have any hair on my back, the jellyfish couldn't stick to it However, the crack of my butt was not as fortunate.

When I scratched what I thought was an itch, I was actually grinding the jellyfish into the crack of my butt.

I informed the dive supervisor of my dilemma over the communicator.

His instructions were unclear due to the fact that he, along with five other divers, were all laughing hysterically.

Needless to say I aborted the dive. I was instructed to make three agonizing in-water decompression stops totaling thirty-five minutes before I could reach the surface to begin my chamber dry decompression. When I arrived at the surface, I was wearing nothing but my brass helmet.

As I climbed out of the water, the medic, with tears of laughter running down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to rub it on my butt as soon as I got in the chamber.

The cream put the fire out, but I couldn't poop for two days because my butt was swollen shut.

So, next time you're having a bad day at work, think about how much worse it would be if you had a jellyfish shoved up your butt.

Now repeat to yourself, "I love my job, I love my job, I love my job."

Now whenever you have a bad day, ask yourself, is this a jellyfish bad day?

May you NEVER have a jellyfish bad day !! [lol] [Big Grin]

Pinworms can also cause anal itching.

tutu, i was attempting to add some humor to a very serious subject. my receiving this was coincidental to this post, and since i've been so sick for 1 week, i got a chuckle out of it.

to the poster, i'd be happy to delete my comments IF you would like; just tell me by PM ok! thanks.

no offense was intended; i just needed some humor... [Wink]

The symptoms are an indicator of possible parasites. Regular lab testing, IMO, is often inaccurate. This may be due to the use of only one sample. Parasites have to hide well to survive, and they do hide well. A lab that requires 3 or 4 different samples, perhaps from different days, my be more accurate. There was a lab named Great Smokies that had a very good rep but I believe they have changed their name.

merk,

ralph talked w/you about great smoky labs; NOW CALLED GENOVA.

here's a link of all tests i had done 4 yrs. ago in minn., with names of labs, $$$, and results; all VERY DETAILED to explain what the tests are about directly from each lab invovled.


VERY DETAILED! I did this for other newbies who had NEVER had complete body testing like I did!

Hoped it would give them guidance what they entail, how costly if OUT OF POCKET PAID like my $ 5000, and which specific labs nationwide are the best for these SPECIFIC lab work.

Thanks, BettyG. I did not write it down the first time you told me, but this time I put it in my PDA.

Any insights on using computerized assessment for organisms ? I reviewed some of Dr. Cowdens protocol and that was mentioned.

Thanks in advance

ralph,

on anal itching problem, 1 yr. ago i had hip surgery which began 11 months of 24/7 urine incontinence.

so i had to wear adult diapers! yuk. well, i developed some type of itch on my fanny from the wetness of diaper since i go so often.

dr. prescribed SWEEN'S ... BAZA ANTIFUNAL cream with 2% miconazole nitrate in a moisture barrier cream!

worked great plus dr. had me use equal parts of:

1 cup water
1 cup vinegar
1 cup ...darn,

i can't remember what it is or if it's 2 or 3 ingredients. IF ANYONE REMEMBERS, PM ME OK! hate this neuro lyme mind .. here today; gone tomorrow!

anyway make it up, and take damp washcloth and wash this area morning and nighttime or anytime it's really itching bad. try area, and then apply this baza cream to hinny! good luck!
