Lyme & coinfectors treatment strategy

June 5, 2008

My 6 years old is autistic, and has 3 known tick bite instances which

happened after his diagnosis of autism. His IgeneX Lyme test is negative

per CDC's as well as IgeneX's interpretations, but inconclusive per Dr.

's interpretation.

- Lyme IFA: negative

- Lyme PCR: negative.

- Lyme Western Blot IgM: 39 band IND; 41 band positive; 58 band positive;

83-93 band IND.

- Lyme Western Blot IgG: 31 band IND; 41 band positive.

However, he is tested positive for Babesia, Ehrlichia, and Bartonella. He

also has elevated IgG and IgM on EBV, elevated IgG on CMV, Rubeola, Rebella,

and Mumps as well as chronic yeast and Strep overgrowth and Clostridia

infections. I have not tested him for Anaplasma and Mycoplasma. Is there a

list of coinfectors necessarily for testing against in order to have a

comprehensive understanding of the illness and effective treatment strategy

for an individual? What tests are meaningful and actionable? Which labs

can perform those tests?

Even though with multiple infections in him, my son is seemingly healthy.

His gross motor skills are fine, does ice-skating well, and has good energy

level in general. But he is close to non-verbal, and has poor eye contact,

sever teeth cavities, and difficulty in focus and concentration

My son is on a gluten-free, casein-free, low sugar/carb, and above 80%

orgnic diet. I use DMSA and ALA to chelate my son for metal toxins as well

as doing FIR Sauna weekly, alongside with some natural yeast management. We

started Banderol and Cumanda made by Nutramedix since last December to

address the coinfecions and possible Lyme Borreliosis. One big gain we have

is that his persistent OCD for the past 2 years prior to introducing these

herbs finally subsided. What discourages me is that the level of his

language and communication stay pretty much the same. It is still very

difficult for him to stay focused in a group setting. Lately I have been

reading about Dr. Buhner's protocol and very recently added Cat's Claw.

I am very puzzled if there is a layering strategy that can effectively treat

the multiple infections that my son has. In what order should the multiple

infections be treated?

Thank you for reading this message.
