Dear yarrow

Thank you. Yes was on mepron stopped 3 days ago due to feeling yucky. I can

never get very far treating babesia. Forgot to take artemesia for past 6-9

months so maybe a better place to start. I also started omnicef a few days ago

too. Changes can become challenging and hard to know when it is worth trying to

push through it.

Herxing is such a bummer. Just brings me down. I am such a spirited person and

working so hard to overcome hurdles mentally, physically, emotionally and

spiritually. Relaxing has now become my full time objective. I take it whenever

I can. Work is def compromised. Hoping that I can keep hiding what is going on

with me.

Joints and muscles are in full tension ache and spasm.

Wish we had an immediate cure. This has been a long haul.

Thanks for the support.

Hugs

Dear Monty,

I read a few days ago that you are taking mepron and are herxing.

It definitely sounds like it's taken you down.

When I spoke to my LLMD last week i was feeling in a very similar place (and my

herxing is just from herbs)......he reminded me that this is what happens while

treating these illnesses.

In my case, he encouraged me to stop taking the anti-microbials until i got back

to feeling a bit better. It is such a fine line, when to treat, when to not

treat.

Mystic Goddess posted a few days ago about the load on our bodies from herxing

too hard.

I think i read not too long ago one of your posts that you were feeling well.

Trusting that this is just a difficult spell for you right now.

Can you take a break from the medications?

Glad you reached out for support.....

Sending peace and ease your way.

Hope you are able to rest in body and mind.

Monty,

 

Im so sorry you crashed I had an amazing day yesterday and over did it

because if I don't do the housework then it wont get done. Thank goodness a

friend offered to do groceries for me because I cannot drive. Thank goodness I

work from home, but it becomes hard to hide my pain from my clients. I too

cannot add very many things at a time and have to go VERY very slow in

increasing herbs. Anxiety meds nor pain meds help anything and I cannot take

anything for the depression...so I rock through it and pray. So far it gets me

through the rough patches and i back off the herbs when its bad and my body is

taxed. I wish there was an immediate cure, but have decided that this was dealth

to me to give me a wake up call to change my life in a different direction away

from Nursing. It turned me to start my degree in Natural Health and Wellness and

Nutrition. I will say a prayer for you in meditation tonight and hope that

tomorrow is brighter and that tonight you

find some peace.

 

Hugs

Monty, yes herxing is bad but if it's overwhelming, not all that good. Has

someone discussed detoxing? Coffee enemas, epsom salt baths, lots of C and

magnesium to move bowels?

What are you doing to detox?

Yes lots of detox but have been getting constipated with new meds. Had good

movement today. I do a 2 stage detox shake from metagenics plus milk thistle

plus antioxidants magnesium malate sometimes drink epsom salts per dr. Baths

only once or twice a week as no tub when I spend 70% of my time. Pain increases

when constipated. This is the worst I have been in a year since I started

treatment 2 may's ago.

It will keep moving. Did some yoga yesterday to try and shift energy. My big

challenge also is I was an athlete and still have decent muscle structure just

not as strong as I used to be. So hard to not overdo when I do. I usually take a

big hit when I try to do anything bc I am millions of miles away from where I

used to be.

It will change always does.

Monty - how are you doing today?

I know what you mean about being " a million miles away from where I used to

be " - me too. Seems like keeping everything moving is even more important

for us - as if the bugs win when we don't eliminate properly.

And the PH thing. So I've been told to drink lemon/lime water in the morning

and take some PH equilizer later.Sometimes it's just so hard to do it all

cause that takes energy too.

I have been doing shakes in the morning forever - which metagenics are you

using? I've used the protein 360 which I think is rice as well as the

regular drink (chocolate flavor of course).

Hi nancy

I'm ok. Thanks for reaching out. Have had a migrane going on 2 weeks now. I am

usually all abt going natural.....but I have not been able to function without

high dose of pain killers. I must work to stay alive. Funny how I have adjusted

my believe system and have taken actions I would have never in the past to stay

alive. I used to have a family that supported me but since I was diagnosed with

lyme they have pretty much written me off.

Back to the body...Eliminating regularly now....maybe tooo much. Stretching and

doing a little yoga. My pain levels are pretty out of control. Stopped mepron.

Need to go back on it soon though.

I think the big key here is the iron iv therapy I am doing that has kicked the

pain up so much. Last time pre treatment I became bed ridden.

PH is pretty good for me. I do a lot of fresh squeezed lime juice. Substitute

for alcohol soda water, splash of cran and a ton of lime!!

Metagenics shakes.....chocolate across the board. I do ultra meal 360 for

snacks, then also ultra clear plus for detox and ultra inflamX for those days

where the pain is bad. I would say I have quite the natural pharmacy in my home.

Spending today at home wish I could every day!
