How I Treat my Lyme Disease

NOTE: Each person needs to work out a customized protocol with a Lyme-literate doctor.  It is imperative to remember that even if we share identical symptoms and identical diagnoses, each body will respond to various protocols differently.  We need to find our own unique treatment with the help of our licensed medical practitioner.

I have tried most every alternative protocol – at least those within my scraped together budget -and have written extensively about each protocol I know of either in my blog or in my ebooks.

My Lyme Neurologist has diagnosed my life-long illness as “Post-Lyme Auto-Immune Syndrome with severe immune system deficiencies.” This is my treatment plan as of fall 2009:

To kill bacteria (Lyme plus co-infections) I use:

·         Biaxin (Clarithromycin)

·         Hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil)

·         Andrographis Paniculata (herbal antibiotic) 

Enzymes to dissolve biofilms:

·         Lumbrokinase

·         Serrapeptase

·         Nattokinase

Daily Supplements:

·         Quantum Greens 1 – 2 Tbsp with 32 - 64 ounces spring water

·         Apple Polyphenols and Himalayan Salt Capsules 2 - 3 times a day

·         Gold 360  1 tsp every morning

·         Coral Calcium   2 twice a day

·         Magnesium  3 twice a day

·         Iron 1 or 2 times a day

·         Gaba  2 twice or three times a day as needed

·         Quantum Probiotics  2 at noon (between my abx doses)

·         Teasel  3 drops 3 times a day

·         Melatonin  1 5 or 6g tablet before bedtime

Energy/Multi-vitamin Drink – take at lunch and sip slowly:

• Quantum Max Stress B Complex  1 tsp in 8 oz of water
• Quantum Tomato  1 Tbsp added to above
• Quantum Nutritional Flakes  1 Tbsp added to above with 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

 When I can afford it:

• Aloe Arborescens (Quantum)
• DLHA 8 oz (Quantum)
• Apple Essence Resveratrol Elite (ApplePoly)
• Carnivora (Carnivora.com)
• Teasel

Daily Diet: Balanced Meals and Five Element Shake each morning.

I use a FAR Infared Sauna for detox.

I sleep on a Magnet Matress Pad for pain relief and to improve pH balance.

I use EFT and meditation as often as I can.

I spend as much time with my horses as possible and hope to ride again soon.

I try to spend time every day stretching, light exercising and deep breathing.
