Maybe you weren't on abx long enough. Remember there are a lot of different

strains of the lyme bacteria and you can have more than one strain in your

body. It is hard to kill all of the strains off.

Perhaps you weren't on the abx long enough. Then afterwards, you need to

rebuild your body, so much damage has happened from all the bacteria and

drugs. It really causes such unbalance and havoc. It took me a full year

after finishing abx to start feeling better. I even went through some abx

withdrawal symptoms..........everyone was suggesting I return to abx

treatment because I felt horrible.......once I got my body use to no abx, I

started to feel better. One day at a time....it takes one day at a time.

Hi Connie, Thanks for the response. Last summer or I should say the

summer before I developed cellulitis in my foot from a sliver. Thats

the time when I felt I wasn't on anti's long enough. This time I'm into

my second month of doxy. I have been getting joint and muscle pain.

Also nausea with vomitting. What concerns me the most is this eye pain

and blurriness. I see the llmd next month. I just felt I neede support

between now and then.

Does anyone else have these mood swings? Rages? I am usually a pretty

easy going person. Ms brain freezes do not hold a candle to lyme fog.

I didn't even know how to get in a car.

Take Care

Hi, Dagmar,

Have you looked into bartonella? Any pain in the soles of your feet, especially

in the morning? Any abdominal discomfort? Vision stuff? Teeny red dots on

skin?

Bartonella is often the culprit when neuro symptoms recur or linger. I've had

kidney pain with it as well, along with the above symptoms.

Hope you find an answer.

No I don't think they tested for Bartonella. But then again I am positive

for toxoplasmosis, another cat disease (found out when pregnant), so who

knows, suppose I should get tested for that too when I get health coverage

again.

Hi Sere:

WHY buy the Stephania root in cut form and then grind it yourself? WHY

not just buy it in powder form to begin with? I have been getting that way for

about a year. I have just bought a pound in cut/sifted form and will be making

a TINCTURE with it. You will get more out of it in tincture form than by a tea.

Hi,

18 years, treated for a year and a half with herbs and rife. I am

grateful for the progress I have made but am still symptomatic and

eager to find new treatments.

I bought some Natures Way Andrographis and obatained samples of herbs

from 1st Chinese Herbs to take to my LLMD for energetic testing.

Based on energetic testing this is what he recommended:

Andrograhphis (Natures Way) start with 1 cap twice aday build up to 3

caps twice a day

Stephania Root (Cut) grind into powder. Place 1 tsp in warm water to

make tea

drink one cup before breakfast

Polygonum Cuspidatum Root Powder 1 tsp in warm water, drink one cup

before breakfast

Teasal Root 1 tsp in warm water, drink one cup before breakfast

I would love to have your input regarding the above: dosing, method

of preparation, and an other comments. My doctor hasn't used these

herbs before so your experience in addtion to his finding would be

helpful.

Thank you - in advance.

Dear friends,

Just reading about some of the new people to this site. So sorry for

everyone. We are going through the same thing. My daughter has had epilepsy for

two years and has continually gotten worse. She has been on 7 different meds,

that have reduced her to infancy (she's 4). We recently took her to an

alternative treatment doctor who started her on numerous herbs and supplements.

We have been able to wean nearly all meds and are seeing huge improvements. She

is picking everything back up and is down from several hundred head-drops and

drop attacks to 10 or less (if any). I want to help others as much as I can. I

know how frustrating it can be working w/ these stubborn doctors who only know

drugs and surgery. I am posting a good article explaining the benefits of

vitamin supp. and possible food allergies that may trigger seizures. Very

interesting. So far it is working for us, as I hope it does for others. I don't

know why doctors can't suggest these other less invasive

options, guess there isn't any money to be made w/ vitamins. Read this article,

it is very enlightening and shows that there is hope and there are more options

for you. Hope this helps.

Hey there Jim

(I assume the same one from Lymenet)

Why the ia root in cut form. That was the form 1st Chinese

Herbs sent me, so that is what my doctor tested and what I ordered.

It does seem silly to grind the cut form into a powder when it is

already available that way. So I am calling the company to see if I

can change my order.

How would I prepare the tincture and why is it more potent. These are

likely questions I should know by reading, but I don't have Buhners

book yet and would like to get started before it arrives.

Thanks Jim

Hi Serendi, nice to see you here too!

How did you figure out to do these teas, like the knotweed only with

warm water, if I understood well?

I boil it for minimum 20 minutes... I guess I gotta look at the book of

Buhner again.

The only reason I do the tea, is that I can find the knotweed bark here

in Europe (but I can't find it powdered), so that I don't need to

import from the US. Otherwise, I would try whole herb powder, as Buhner

suggests.

welcome to the group!

dear friend, i would strongly encourage you to read buhners whole book

FIRST, before starting the protocol. there is so much info in the book:

important contraindications, info on dosing and the forms to take each herb

depending on your symptoms. you'll not be able to gather all that info

accurately from this group without the book.

in this challenging time of illness and transition,

may gratitude and wonder enlighten your path, step by step.

Miranda,

I just read your first post about your daughter. Has your daughter

been seen by specialists in inborn errors of metabolism, have heart

conditions been ruled out? If your daughter's seizures are triggered

by a metabolic disorder, or something like gluten intolerance, no

brain surgery will fix it, for sure.

You may want to contact Mark Schauss at his blood testing

laboratory. His daughter had seizures and he was able to help her

through his own research. I think it involved organic acid disorders.

Was your daughter evaluated for this possibility?

These links are to articles about his daughter's seizures. They are

on his business' web page.

http://www.carbonbased.com/modules/sections/index.php?

op=viewarticle & artid=7

http://www.carbonbased.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=81

This link is to an article I wrote on vitamin D deficiency and

seizures. This is often overlooked and is turning up more recently

following a lot of press coverage on how common vitamin D deficiency

may be.

http://www.indiana.edu/~pietsch/zoerickets.html

Thanks for that link you posted. I'm reading it too!

Hi Selma,

It was your posts on lymenet along with others that prompted me to

look into these herbs. 1st Chinese herbs sent me samples of the

Teasal, root, and Japenese Knotweed. The Teasal and

Japenese Knotweed were in powder form, and the ia root in cut.

I spoke to Sara at 1st Chinese herbs and she recommended making a tea

simply by disolving a tsp of the powder into a cup of water, and

drinking it in three portions a day to keep it in my system. The cut

form needs to be reduced. 1/4 cup of bark in 2 cups of water reduced

to one and also taken in three portions a day.

Selma, will 1st Chinese herbs send you the powdered form. I recall

you are in Europe but must confess I forgot which company.

I have much reading to do.

Yes, Sere, one and the same.

It is my understanding that the alcohol will bring out the elements of the

roots better than water.

Usually you use powder for the capsules, and cut and sifted for the tinctures.

It would take a lot more straining if you used the powder for the tinctures.

Yes, IF you are going to take Stephania in capsule form, it only makes sense

to get it in powder form in the begining.

Hi Donna

Welcome to this group :-) I have learned so much being here and hope you find

the support you need here also.

I'm glad you have a dx now and can work on strategies that will help you all.

How long will Mack spend at the residential treatment program?

It is so great to hear of adoptive parents...we fostered my dd friend for a

short time when she was removed from her adoptive home until they could find

permant placement. That was just 2 years ago and a 16yo in that type

situation..oh my...God bless you for all you do!

- C.

Mom to Cassie 15 PCOS, Austin 13 ADHD and a 3 HFA/AS & SPD/SID

( ) New here

Hi - I sent an introduction email about a week ago, but since I did not

receive a welcome - I guess that it did not go through. So, I'll do it again.

I am Donna from Louisiana with a hubby and four children: three boys, Chris

(25) - ADHD, depression; Sam (15) Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, Anxiety Disorder,

ADHD, Mood Disorder, Central Auditory Processing Disorder, Sensory Integration

Dysfunction; and Mack (14) - recently diagnosed Aspergers, also already

diagnosed ADHD, Bipolar, ODD and one girl, Jenna (22) - married and " normal " -

whatever that is. All of our children are adopted: and Jenna by me and my

ex; Mack by my husband and his ex. Sam by me and current husband.

Mack was diagnosed a little over a week ago. We have suspected Aspergers or

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome for about three years, but could never get the diagnosis.

Mack has major rages and after three arrests for assault on family members,

teachers and police, he ended up in the psych hospital for the third time in 2.5

years. This time he had a neuropsych do a complete eval and that is how we got

the diagnosis. Mack is on two years probation for his assault charges and also

was ordered to complete a residential treatment program at the Methodist

Children's home. We took him there last Friday. Today I was really encouraged

when I talked to the Family Therapist that has been assigned to us - she is very

familiar with Aspergers and knows the strategies to use with him. She has also

had another client who was dually diagnosed wtih Aspergers and bipolar. So, I

feel like we have finally found assistance. Mack is very angry and depressed and

I am sure that it is because without the right diagnosis we were not using the

right strategies to help him. That combined with his adoptive mom leaving when

he was 7 years old have caused a lot of the anger and depression.

I hate that now that we have the diagnosis that he is no longer living with

us. I hope that he will be back with us soon and that we will have the tools we

need to help him. The psychologist who diagnosed him has promised to help us

find a therapist here when Mack comes home.

I have been reading email for about a week and I really think that this group

has the support we need.

I have been reading email for about a week and I really think that this

group has the support we need.

Donna,

Hi, I'm Liz in Houston, my seven year old has AS. This is a really good

group, I think you'll get lots of information. You really have a lot going on

in your house! It must feel overwhelming.

What kind of accommodations will Mack's school have in place when he comes

back to live with you? Does he already have an IEP for his other diagnosis'?

not receive a welcome - I guess that it did not go through. So, I'll do it
