Anyway using herbals/homeopathics

[matis_mom]

I am wondering if any of you are using herbal or homeopathic remedies to treat Lyme and/or co-infections. "Researching" online, it seems it takes massive doses of certain drugs to get ride of some of the co-infections. I am pretty positive dd10 has Babesia, and I wonder how my frail 50lb 10yo will withstand the treatment, and if there are any other effective yet more gentle options. She is currently on Doxycicline and her tummy is not handling it very well. Thank goodness ds12, on the other hand, seems to have a GI tract made out of iron!

My brother's friend (lyme patient) swears by this book - Healing Lyme - which outlines the core herbal treatment and treatments for co-infections. If I find out we have lyme, I'm going to try it out as support to abx.

Thanks Susan! That's the book I just read (among others... TMI!)

I am glad to hear someone is seeing good results with it. If you get a chance I'd love to have more details (ie, is he/she dealing with coinfections too, how long he's had it, how long has he been following the protocol, etc.)

I am just trying to see what my options are before we jump into hard core antibiotics.

DD10 is *really* driving me bananas with her insecurity, need for reasurance, meltdowns, etc. I just want this to stop!

Sure, I will email him and PM you when he responds! Probably the same questions I would have once I got closer to trying. This was his top pick book.

We are using Dr Klinghardt's Herbal and homeopathic protocolalong with the abx. The goal is to make it all herbal/homeopathic eventually. We do a precription Lyme coctail for DS daily. Ths is prescribed custom blend for DS as per the ART muscle testing done on him.
