HoKay keep us posted. Does Levaquin or Doryx changed metabolism of spiro or epler? ie do they increase the duration or effect. Look up how they are metabolized.

We're really boring - meat, vegetables and maybe a sweet potato or rice. I did that religiously for about two years. I no longer chart my food but at the time I took in about 800 mg/d. That gave me a urinary sodium too low to quantitate. In the last few months, I've been eating a little more sodium but I'd still guess I'm under 1500 mg. I occasionally have a sandwich of say, tomato, spinach and a little mayo. I don't eat any deli meats because they're all so salty. I used to not even eat a hamburger bun but have lightened up on things like that. I continue with things like Kashi Autumn Light for cereal, and I still place orders online from Healthy Choices. I learned to make a mean meatball, wonderful ground pork/kale/potatoes soup, and home made bread w/o salt. So, my falling BP cannot be from low sodium. Levaquin rather quickly dropped it and then it picked up again when I went on Doryx. Now its down again.

I hadn't even thought of

Levaquin and/or Doryx changing the metabolism of spiro & Inspra. I have no idea how to research how they

are metabolized. The Doryx

instructions say to tell your doc if you're on a low sodium diet. Maybe Doryx lowers BP in some way. Doryx is a time-release doxycycline and is

pricey.

One of the tests my Lyme doc

sometimes recommends is aldosterone, but I don't know his reasoning. Next time I see him, I will ask him

about HTN, K, aldo and why my HTN is lessening. I find this all very interesting.

I will see what I can find on how they are metabolized and if there is competition for other drugs.ceOn Jan 15, 2010, at 4:27 PM, Valarie wrote:I hadn't even thought of Levaquin and/or Doryx changing the metabolism of spiro & Inspra.

If you are putting your life in his hands then ask him to start a placebo controlled trial, which if the treatment is so good, would not need to be hard to show the effect of the "real treatment" vs natural variation of health and disease.Patient reaction is an extremely weak way to evaluate a treatment. Esp if there is no placebo (blinded to the Dr and the patient. So continue to press this community to conduct proper trials so many are not wasting their time a money. A proper trial should be easy to get funding for from NIH if the "preliminary data" is so strong and there are so many folks who can be "healed". I fail to see why any physician would not be interested in such proof that what he or she is doing makes people healthier.My guess it that those who do not improve are not documented in the long term follow up.

Actually, first time there, I

spent two hours with the doc and his PA. 

They went through all my records and remarked that I'd really had a lot

of " work-up. "

The problem with a trial is that

different people respond differently to different antibiotics.  The best I can tell is it’s a trial and error

situation.  ILADS has a different

philosophy than IDSA (Infectious Disease Society of America) as to treating

long-term Lyme.  My doc talks about the

difficulty of getting funding in this interview:  http://audio.kvmr.org/2006_Jun_23_LymeDisease.mp3

I do, however, intend to query

him about the research supporting use of Doryx.

Again if it cures MS and all the other stuff he claims it should be very easy to get funding.Because different people respond differently one needs a placebo group to see if Rx is better than no Rx.

I know I had it back in 2008 but didn't connect the symptoms to lyme.  The bird mites connected me to this group...where I connected the dots.   My son gets tested next week and my husband will soon after.

Samento is good... I don't know if it will get rid of chronic long term Lyme, but may get rid of an early case. I also used for some time and it very good and useful to get rid of symptoms is Teasel. You can order online. The herbalist Harrod Buhner who is very well known and his book Healing Lyme talks a lot about Samento and Teasel. You could at least do that if you can't afford to get a LLMD or do antibiotics.

To add to what said- the Lyme herbs actually enhance the abx. One herb alone will not do it, not even one rx abx will cut it. Check out group Eurolyme, Gill is the moderator-very helpful as are many on that board. People from all over Europe but mostly UK.aaOn Jan 8, 2012, at 3:01 PM, Goldstein@... wrote:

yes, I've read up a bit on the other herbs and teasel - I shall find out the best places to buy from in the UK - the only problem with not testing is I won't know if I definately have lyme and coinfections and then when I feel better, I won't know if I actually had it (that looks different written down than it sounded in my head) :0)

C is interested in a natural approach too, as she has other health problems and wouldnt want them

made worse by antibiotics.

Yes, it's a great herb for Lyme and cos. Needs to be used as a combo with other herbs. Banderol, Japanese Knotweed, artemisinin, Cryptolepis, etc.

Thankyou for all your replies.. At present, and for the foreseable (sp?) future, I am unable to afford private lyme tests - I am going to start my own treatment, and am currently finding out about the best natural path to take, ie..Samento and other herbs.

Does anyone know about this herb? It does have a lot of reviews regarding it's success with fighting lyme.

Probably everyone once they get correct testing done and get assessed by a Lyme literate practitioner. Many are infected and never get properly diagnosed. NO LYME TEST CAN RULE OUT LYME. Symptoms do progress over time and the brain issues can be devastating if not treated.

Oh you'll know, if you herx on high doses of quality herbs. Samento and Banderol seem to be the big once from Nutramedix. You can test later on, your more likely to get a positive Igenix after a couple months of treatment. If you can see an LLMD and get rx abx with the herbals even better. Tell your GP you had a tick bite and a bullseye rash. Doxy 200mg 2 x a day. It's a cheap med.AandrayaOn Jan 8, 2012, at 4:02 PM, Kaz <kazk1@...> wrote:
