Family starting lyme treatment, any advice?

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

After years of declining cognitive function, joint problems, etc., I was

recently diagnosed with late stage lyme. We also learned that my daughter, who

suffers from digestive and anxiety issues, and my son who has autism, also have

lyme. We were told that they have congenital lyme and that the infection is the

source of their difficulties.

I'm feeling overwhelmed, but I'm happy in a way because now we have a direction

for treatment, (and I'm proud that I listened to that nagging voice telling me

that somehow our issues were connected!)

Anyway, we are seeing a doctor we like who has started us on the Cowden

protocol. I am confident that we will be able to improve using this natural

approach, but my pest-ravaged brain is having a little trouble with so many

things to keep track of.

I am grateful that the doctor recommended this forum though, because nothing can

replace the support and advice of veterans!

Thanks in advance,

Pam

Our story sounds similar to yours...we took our 2 1/2 year old 'autistic' son to

see a DAN doctor, and after tons of tests (including a Lyme test), we found out

he, as well as my husband and I are positive also. Thank goodness, the DAN is

also a LLMD who we feel comfortable with, so our treatments have begun. Our

son's prognosis now is recovery in 2 years. It's such a change in direction

with everything, but it really is a blessing that we know. At least we are on

the right track. Thank goodness, somehow, our 4 1/2 year old daughter does NOT

have Lyme. Good luck with your road to recovery. You're not alone!

Just wanted to say that I have tried many Nutramedix products. The only

side effects we got were from die-off. Some can be really strong. Good

water makes them work a little stronger. We did take them with other

supplements, but there are guidelines to which can be taken in the same

water, and which need to be taken at least 20 minutes apart from each

other. We got die-off on day 4 from several of them, so don't

underestimate their strength and think if one drop is not making you

sick then you are fine enough to take several drops.

Love and prayers,
