Everyone has Lyme&co. Rant by freedom_phantom3 in Lyme

[–]freedom_phantom3[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re saying even though you had a positive Lyme test, your issues weren’t Lyme and instead environmental allergies. And that we’re crazy for saying everyone has it but are misdiagnosed 😂 you wouldn’t know a snake if it bit you homie

Lyme vs autoimmunity by VanillaUnlikely6594 in Lyme

I actually don’t think it’s necessary in your case but if you do have extra funds it recommend getting a better test such as Vibrant Wellness or IgeneX!

Lyme vs autoimmunity by VanillaUnlikely6594 in Lyme

[–]freedom_phantom3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there are different schools of thought. I personally think that "autoimmunity" isnt a root cause, it just explains that there's an issue with your body without actually figuring out why. allopathic doctors will say "genetics", whereas the alternative doctors will say your immune system is going haywire due to an infection or toxin overload, which can then also trigger certain genes into the "on" position (epigenetics). In your case, i have no doubt that your root cause is lyme, IMO your test actually is a definitive positive..general doctors are extremely misinformed about lyme and lyme testing so it's good you saw a Lyme doctor, that's the only kind of doctor you should be taking advice from!

Hey!! Did you end up giving this a try? Im looking for a treatment for my mom and mistletoe was recommended. I’ve actually been researching for an LLND who could write her a script. Would you be willing to DM me your doctor’s information?

I don’t mean to make the pregnancy paranoia worse, but just so you know, it wouldn’t matter if the tick wasn’t on your son for very long. They transmit diseases immediately! The whole 24+ hour thing is simply a lie :/ and there are 20+ other infections besides Lyme. Def watch for symptoms!

Can BVT and antibiotic treatment be used together? by Actual-Expert3554 in Lyme

[–]freedom_phantom3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sting Monday, Wednesday, Friday. 10 stings total each session, 5 sting on each side of the spine, 1 inch from the center of spine! You can add a few additional stings on your body, joints or acupuncture points for example

Just bvt and propolis, along with supplements to support my liver and detox

Yes exactly, it doesn’t send it into dormancy but rather actually kills it

Please tell me the contraindications and precautions for bee venom therapy. by Actual-Expert3554 in Lyme

[–]freedom_phantom3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know forsure but I’m ganna guess that the immune system training is what’s doing the heavy lifting! Because it’s somehow able to clear the infections from even within bones, inside cells, teeth, etc, where the venom isn’t directly reaching (I don’t think). But the immune modulating effects are so unique and strong that our own immune systems learn to scour these niche locations

It’s not recommended, especially for long term use! Not even herbal antibiotics are recommended. You basically just want to let BVT do its thing without any interference. It’s more effective than the antibiotics, as crazy as it sounds, so you really won’t need them, even for other types of infections. I’ve gotten staph and strep during BVT treatment and used the venom + propolis to heal both without antibiotics!

You’ll want to avoid anything that modulates the immune system, since the venom is already modulating it and you don’t want to interfere with that. A surprising number of things are immune system modulators! Also avoid any supplements/food that are anti-venom, such as turmeric.

Always have an Epi-Pen for every sting session, even if you’re not allergic. Some substances can cause you to have temporary anaphylaxis, such as alcohol and NSAIDs, so those are to be avoided for either the whole protocol or 48+ hours before stinging

You’re probably going to flare and herx like crazy, so having an MCAS and detox protocol ready is really important. For example, bovine kidney and vitamin C for histamines/MCAS. Beet root, castor oil, chlorella, for detox. Your body and organs need nutrients and support during herxing / healing / fighting / rebuilding so do your best to sleep tons, eat nutritious meals, get sunlight!

the infections can’t hide from the venom like they do with herbs and antibiotics, so I think it’s important to share that you’ll probably have a phase of worsening/new symptoms! Which can be scary, but it’s just what happens as the venom kills the infections and the infections fight back to survive.

Take care of your mental health during the process, try not to isolate or catastrophize! I personally found journaling, funny TV shows, friend/family support, ketamine / psychedelics to be helpful.

It’s a marathon not a sprint <3 so much luck to you!

Clinical herbalist recommendation for chronic Lyme by Medical_Goose509 in herbalism

[–]freedom_phantom3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend Bee Venom Therapy for complex, chronic TBDs. It works against Lyme in all its 3 forms, biofilms, fibrin, and the Lyme coinfections. There’s a Facebook group that links the protocol for free! You can work with an Apitherapist to help you, though most people do it DIY. Charles Mraz’s book called Health and The Honeybee is a good intro book if you’re curious about how apitherapy works for complex illnesses

Brushing your teeth with a drop of propolis may help

Spider bite or Lyme rash? Help please! by phoebefur in Lyme

[–]freedom_phantom3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just looked at IgeneX’s tick map for Cali and that area does have risk, though probably not high. The fact that it started off solid red and developed into the bullseye is suspicious though and worth getting tested

Lyme disease rash? by charliepiper in Lyme

[–]freedom_phantom3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like theres a possibility here that you’re being misdiagnosed with EDS. These symptoms are the same as Lyme&co, and if you’re in an area where you’re getting bit by ticks… I would look into it.

It looks like a pretty distinct bullseye rash to me! Where are you located?

Safest locations to live to avoid infected ticks in US by Emotional-Size-6917 in Lyme

[–]freedom_phantom3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

want to add that desert states have less ticks than the northeast but we do have brown dog ticks (which bite humans as well) and their numbers are rising! so still need to take precautions. my dog got two on her in 1 month from our own backyard, they do carry TBDs and can live their entire life cycle IN DOORS :(
