Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Hello, Let me give a brief intro. Was bitten just over 3 years ago by a flea in my foot, had EM rash .From my daughter's 5 years of undiagnosed descend into hell with Lyme, Bart, Babs I learned enough not to bother with doctors. After 4 months hoping my strong immune system would just fight it I realized when I could no longer change gear and had many other of the familiar symptons I better do something more serious than a few drops of Samento. I started salt/c which was new at that time. I soon herxed . After 2 years of religiously doing salt c I was mostly free of symptons, running , feeling fine BUT now and then at the original bite site I had this burning foot , flaring . So I knew some bugs were still there. So I added Buhner core herbs about a year ago , starting with andrographis and I soon had glowing red hands and feet. I was killing something.Last Xmas I lost my sense of taste completely and it took 4 months to slowly come back. Taste herx I realized with hindsight. I took 5 months despite my good health, to build up to full dose of the core herbs. I noticed just going from 3to 4 caps of andrographis gave me an immediate headache. My back over the many months showed up with lots of bumps, spots and scratches. I realized I must have Bartonella as well from the marks on my back. The Japanese knotwood was great. I noticed I started feeling very dizzy after my dose of powdered herbs and put it down first to cat's claw lowering my BP. Only after a while I realized the sarsparilla from 1st chinese had changed to a different variety. One morning I just felt terrible after my herb dose . I realized I had got allergic to this sarsparilla variety and stopped it. Since then I have had no more fainting. I just ploughed on with the 3 other core herbs at 2 teaspoons a day of each herb, but still had this burning foot, so still bugs. One month a go I started Stephania and build up quickly to 2x 1 teaspoon. My back ,which had been clear for months is now again covered in bumps and red marks, my foot is burning and everytime I look I see it is bright red which will go again. My wrist which had not troubled me for ages is tender. The stephania is definitely hitting the hard spots. What I have learned is that despite being well I still have some critters to kill. I will follow Selma, and not hang around with one set of herbs too long but change a bit more quickly and I am going to try teasel and Houtania next. I try and test with the navel method from Selma to just give me an idea if the herb works for me. My daughter still has loads of bumps on her back and she cant up her dose of herbs beyond 1-2 capsules of each herb despite her generally being quite well she still has many critters in her system. She is not as consistent as me with taking her herbs. Helga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
