Heidi,

Please continue to share your experiences with cryptolepsis. As I

said earlier, I could not tolerate even a small dose. Unbearable

fatigue. Someone wrote about the effects of crypto a couple of weeks

ago; I'm going to copy that and take it to my doc to see if there is

some reason I'm not tolerating it or if its just a big time herx.

I took artemisinin for 6 weeks before. I had some increased fatigue

in the beginning but it lifted and I didn't notice anything else with

artemisinin.

On Xylitol:

I use it rather than sugar because I deal with candida, too. I also

use Trace Minerals Concentrate from Dynamite Marketing and coconut

oil for that. The TMC is the key, but they all seem to work

synergistically. Adding some herbs to it is amazingly powerful.

But I've been wondering about the coconut oil. Since the spirochetes

feed on fats also, is that a bad thing for Lyme? Does anyone know

anything about that?

Vitamin Shoppe carries birch xylitol now, but I also have gotten from

this link: www.emeraldforestxylitol.com

Well, I am on day 3 of crypto tincture, taking 1 tsp. 3 times a day.? Today, I

finally have some weird feelings.? I am having headaches and funny feelings in

my head.? In the past when I took Art., I felt like my head was on fire the

first two doses I took.? Thus, my head is where all these squatters are living.?

Ugh, and double Ugh!? Anyhow, I am not sure about what to do about my

headaches.? I always get nervous when I get herxing, like I am afraid I am

damaging myself.? If I get worse on my next dose,?I will stop for a day and then

resume again and see what happens.

Heidi,

Have you considered resuming with a smaller dose? That would allow

your body to process and eliminate the critters the crypto kills.

Doing it fast is not always better. Starting with a lower dose and

working up gradually as you tolerate it might be a way to approach

the situation.

Thank you for sharing your experience.

I stopped for a day, and I am now resuming with just 1 tsp twice a day instead

of three times a day.? My son is also getting herxing.? We both have strange leg

pains, nothing awful.? He says he is having trouble concentrating, but he is in

a happier mood.? He also has strange white bumps on his back.? They look like

small pimples, but they don't pop.? I think its pathogens of some sort, trying

to get out or being sequestered by his body.? Anybody get those?? I don't have

any.? Now, this kid used to have ADHD, Bipolar, OCD, and Asperger's, before I

did biomedical treatments on him (mostly nutrition and immune boosters, and

detoxers).? He is normal on his supplements and diet, but still full of lyme and

co. since I am just starting treatment for that.
