Coiling for Lyme

pharmaceutical treatments

  • A New Allergy

    Yesterday, I wrote about Neural Therapy. I had a big reaction to having tiny, diluted amounts of procaine (aka novocain) injected subdermally. Initially, we thought I was having a strong reaction to the treatment. Today, my doctor and I realized… Continue reading

  • Dry Skin

    Back when I was 27, I was at a weekend retreat with a friend who had minor skin break-outs, the kind I was starting to get. This was just under 1 year after I think I contracted Lyme disease, babesiosis… Continue reading

  • First things Herx

    I like to say, “First things first. Everything else in no particular order.” I haven’t really caught up with my life yet. I thought I would make more progress on my kitchen, my paperwork and my correspondance today. Instead, I… Continue reading

    Right about the time I got diagnosed with Lyme disease (and the rest of the trio), my doctor sent me to a naturopath in Connecticut to get tested for pesticide exposure. I was definitely exposed to a lot of pesticides… Continue reading

  • The Triumvirate

    I’ve been thinking over the past few days that I felt best (since I’ve been ill) when I was taking a cocktail of antibiotics that tackled all three of my major infections at the same time. So I’m full steam… Continue reading

  • Perfunctory

    My head is killing me. These headaches are really getting to me. They start at 3 or 4 pm and continue until I go to bed. This happened on Rocephin, too. They became a daily occurrence with greater severity once… Continue reading

  • Babesia in the news

    There was an article in the most recent issue of Self that was reprinted on MSNBC: Under-the-radar tick diseases spreading across the U.S., Doctors report sharp rise in potentially deadly, non-Lyme infections. It was great to see the main stream news report… Continue reading
