  • Disulfiram until I needed to stop again

    When I last wrote, I was about to start a higher (and yet still minuscule) dose of disulfiram. After 12 weeks at 62.5mg once per week, I increased to 125mg once per week on January 11. I stayed at that… Continue reading

    Disulfiram until I needed to stop again

  • Slow Motion Replay

    I have now taken 12 doses of disulfiram at 62.5 mg one time per week. Taking it at such a low dose and so far apart, has allowed me to watch what happens after each dose. I chose this method… Continue reading

  • Disulfiram and the Lyme Co-infections

    Let me start with the update. Tonight I take my fifth dose of disulfiram, 62.5mg in the evening. Each subsequent dose after the first one has led to a smaller and smaller Lyme herx. At this point, I think I… Continue reading

  • Disulfiram Round 3

    Two days ago, on October 19, I took 62.5mg of disulfiram. This is the third time I’m taking it, after stopping in the past due to side effects. Each of the past two times, I started with a different idea… Continue reading

  • Disulfiram update (with covid–19 in the house)

    When I realized that I hadn’t had a respiratory infection since 2001 after my Lyme “flu,” I had a fantasy that if there were ever an epidemic respiratory disease, the Lyme bacteria would protect me. Some people I spoke to… Continue reading

  • Disulfiram reboot (with coiling this time)

    For the past few months, since I stopped taking disulfiram due to side effects, I’ve been using the coil machine to try to stem the resurgence of Lyme disease and Babesia that have been slowly waking up. Things got worse… Continue reading

  • Disulfiram Slam

    Last autumn, I decided to try to disulfiram for Lyme disease. I read as much as I could from other people using it. I consulted with a Lyme-literate physician. I kept him in the loop as I increased slowly, maybe… Continue reading

  • Peaks and Troughs

    Part 1 I’ve now been taking Disulfiram for a month. I started with a low dose, 62.5mg every three days. After two weeks, I moved up to 125mg every three days, but it felt like too long between doses. After… Continue reading

  • Calibration

    Last time, I wrote about starting serrapeptase, a biofilm dissolver and cyst-buster, to my coiling regimen. It was starting to get to me back then. Taking serrapeptase is like kicking a hornets’ nest. Apparently I learned this the first time… Continue reading

  • Avoidance

    Something happens when you have a chronic illness. The illness itself wears you down. With a relapsing illness, like the tick-borne infections I carry, the relapses wear you down even more. I’ve been struggling with being worn out for months… Continue reading
