Dry Saunas for Lyme


    I have not been able to find a good link explaining the detoxifying benefits of the dry sauna. However, it does increase an effective sweat to help speed up the process of  detoxing. Anyone close by have one? :)

new treatment plan tomorrow!


     Tomorrow I start a new treatment plan. This will run two weeks on, two weeks off. The two weeks on kill spirochetes and the two weeks off give my immune system a chance to get a workout. As I go through the two weeks off, (holiday, it's called), my immune system takes over and continues to work on the spirochetes and get stronger. This is the 'pulse' system. I am so happy to report I just went through a 17 day holiday, the longest yet, and had minimal fatigue, pain and temperatures. I did have to work on decreasing the inflammation in my spinal cord, and that has been very successful. Again, a good sign.
     Over the summer I had a number of fevers lasting two weeks and more. This is the spirochetes fault, they can be the reason for most fevers. I am now going to attack the biofilms as best as possible over the next four months. Then back to D.C. to report how I have done.
     This plan is multi-faceted, attacking biofilms and other forms of spirochete defense systems, such as the cyst form, and the intracellular form. This is not your typical bacteria. They are SMART . Biofilms are very difficult to break up. The treatment plan will find these forms, sending the spirochetes into a flurry of activity. I'll go through a go around of symptoms and detoxing, (or Herxing). 
     I will continue with my HOT Epsom salt baths and sweating the best I can. This is the best way to detox, through your skin. I wish I could run, but just pushing the vacuum around makes me sweat. Maybe my house will be super clean.
     Each time I finish a holiday, and start a new treatment plan, I should feel less and less symptoms and Herxing. If not, we keep attacking. I have a feeling I will respond well, and be able to decrease my regiment after my next appointment. This is just a feeling of course, only time will tell. So, here I go, all I can say to myself is "sweat, baby, sweat!" Right, Liz! And, " hang though".
