(OT) Quick & Dirty Lyme test

[Guest guest]

The quick and dirty test I referred to is a simple antibiotic test.

Purchase a tincture of TOA free Cats Claw.

There is a brand called Samento that is sold by nutramedix that I used

for my wife. Start out with one drop a day and work your way up to

ten drops as quickly as reactions allow.

If you start getting flu like symptoms during the treatment you very

likely have Lyme Disease. The reaction is a Herxhiemer reaction from

dead or injured bacteria and your immune system kicking in to clean up

the mess. If you have no reaction it could be that you do not suffer

the usual Herx reaction or you do not have Lyme disease. In this

sense, the test can only prove you have Lyme or possibly another

bacteria that causes a Herx reaction. It is unlikely that it would be

anything else when coupled with other Lyme symptoms but it is

possible. The test cannot absolutly rule out Lyme because there is a

small group of people who never suffer outward signs of a Herxheimer

reaction.

This Herx reaction could be why some feel worse initially while

starting LDN, but I am not familiar enough with LDN to say that is the

case.

Remember this is not an approved test, and a doctor will not accept it

as prove of anything. I am not a health care professional, just a

person dealing with multiple diseases in my family.

Another thing to consider is that it is suspected that Lyme is

contagious from exchange of body fluids. There are several families

in which everyone is infected in spite of one or no recorded tick

bites. This is not official either, but there are many cases that are

hard to explain any other way.
