Guest guest Posted January 15, 2001 Report Share Posted January 15, 2001 Thanks to everyone who wrote me about pulmonary problems and lyme. I am trying new inhaler today (gave in to the steroid ones because I can't take it anymore). I feel awful. I went on clindiamycin and quinine for babesiosis and developed a hearing loss. So now I stopped that treatment. I am trying to find herbal remedies or alternatives for babesiosis treatment. Anyone have sucess with this?? Or should I go to the mepron and zith. What's amazing is on the clinda/quinine combo, my neck pain and head pain/numbness, etc, seemed to go away. One week after stopping it is back 100%. Thanks for any info. And thanks for the person who sent me info on coptis. I bought some today. But it was a root and I made tea from it (YUCK, YUCK). I also bought artisismae in capsules (other name wormwood) which is supposed to help with babesisosis. Maybe I should see an herbalist or try Dr. Zhang herbs he sells on his website instead of doing this on my own?? in Az Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 For Babesiosis, the mepron/zithromax combination is much easier tolerated from what I've been able to research. Be careful with the wormwood. I know you are considering it for babesiosis but my LLMD - was really concerned about a patient who tried this. Apparantly Lyme is the only form of spirochettes that wormwood can't touch and the Doc said it can aggrivate the Lyme terribly. If it turns out you do have the Lyme - could end up aggrivating the condition. Did you know wormwood was used in absinthe (now banned and illegal in the USA) [ ] pulmonary thanks, herbs > Thanks to everyone who wrote me about pulmonary problems and lyme.

Be careful with the wormwood. I've read that wormwood can lower the seizure theshhold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
