Lyme disease is a complex medical illness that has stumped many conventional doctors. I believe there is such an entity as Chronic Persistent Lyme Syndrome ( CPLS). Early diagnosis is the key The most important aspect is what lab was used to determine your Lyme status. I prefer to send Lyme specimens to Stony Brook Labs, IGenix and Galaxy Labs.
Antibiotics are very useful for Acute Lyme within 72 hours. If your bite or bull’s eye rash is noted after 3 days I find conventional antibiotics not to be useful This is where I turn to herbal treatments, intravenous support and bee venom .
Herbal treatment is very effective at targeting Lyme and co -infections
These herbs can support the immune system , recue inflammation and provide other health benefits. Some of these herbs are Sweet Wormwood ( Artemsia annua), Cat’s Claw (Uncaria tomentosa) , Coptos ( Coptis chinensis) and Knotweed ( Polygonum ) There are many other herbs that can useful for Lyme Disease. I use many of these herbs in combination. I utilize many of these herbs as per Healing Lyme Disease and Healing Lyme Disease and Co Infections by Stephen Buhner. I also give some mushrooms as Cordyceps which help stimulate the immune system
If you or someone you know has Lyme Disease, seek out integrative/naturopathic treatment .
Until tomorrow…
