Time for antibiotics!...


Time for an update, since I am taking a big turn in my journey through this disease... I am starting antibiotics......Finally!!!:)

I guess the naturalistic/holistic way is not enough for me. After a full 6-month period on Dr.K's protocol, nothing improved. My skin' stem-cells haven't helped either....at least not yet! On the contrary my balance and walking has worsened. I had a major fall last month and got so terrified (hit my head hard), so I got myself a "walker", to move safely inside the house!

I still follow a gluten/sugar/dairy- free diet and I do intensive physiotherapy & (small) weight lifting to increase muscle tone and strength. Fortunately my muscles respond well to that. I had a hard time rising my hands up, and now I can do it :)

I have done some more HBOT sessions, but I stopped for a while due to herxing (die off of bacteria and toxins) and extreme fatigue. I will start again soon though.

I had a blood test showing very low WBC and high ammonia levels. Everything else rather normal. I will have blood tests every 2 weeks as soon as I start antibiotics, to monitor my liver.

I also had a urine test called DMSA, for heavy metals investigation. Results within this week.

The last test I am taking, is a SPECT scan, in order to see my brain in detail. I will write about that in my next update.

Don't forget to mention that the Western-blot (test for Lyme) I had last year here in a Greek lab, and was told it was negative, actually it is positive!!!!! I had 3 positive bands, which certify it as positive....Oh well!

I will update this soon, with SPECT details and my new treatment protocol!

Thanks again for reading and for being "here"...

  2. Antibiotics! Finally something related to what you have and not just efforts to strengthen you up :D
    I wish you the BEST, I hope change and improvement will come quickly.

    Well there is something I don't get though. There is a Lyme test? How come they said "negative" and now they say "positive"? Did they reevaluate the results? You made a new one? what?

    I anticipate for the SPEC!

    MAKIA!!!!! My positive energy and all my good thoughts are for you! :D
