Larry, Sly and Lymes Disease

The epic adventure that is lymes disease... over a year mis-diagnosed, 6 rounds of treatment over three years. Proceed to my ramblings about my last two treatments - intravenous antibiotics and the L-protocol. And hope with me, and for my sake, that I get better.

Let me elaborate

I do feel nauseous... after I eat, after I take my meds, if I get dehydrated. My kidney's are hurting, all the time. I am feeling weak. I look at the meds I have to take and want to vomit. Seriously. gag reaction.

But I think this sick feeling does NOT have to do with lymes but more to do with the toxicity of the antibiotics. Also, I went to an allergist who told me i am borderline diabetic and need to avoid all carbs, sugars, and fruit. My weakened immune system has trouble fighting any sort of allergen too. So my allergies get worse, which taxes my immune system more and which makes it harder to fight all allergens (not to mention anything else that is toxic to my body like yeast in the gut, etc).... the cycle of depleting my immune system continues.

I am also allergic to chocolate. Now ain't that a real kick in the nuts?

well, i can only tell you one thing: exercise. it helps speed up your circulation, which transports waste and other substances throughout and hopefully out of your body faster. take a walk around the neighborhood with a cane if necessary. exercise helps re-regulate your body. also, when you say that you get nauseous after eating, its cause your blood is rushing to your gastrointestinal area, in an effort to digest the newly eaten food. this may raise your blood pressure slightly, but its enough to give you a hard time. and never get dehydrated. always have a water bottle handy. the kidney pains may be due to kidney stones, another effect of not drinking water frequently. and yes... antibiotics are bad. when taking them, make sure you eat some cultured yogurt (danons the best). youre killing off ALL of the bacteria in your body with antibiotics. in order to keep new, foreign and possibly pathogenic bacteria from taking your "good" bodily bacteria after administering antibiotics, replacing the vacancy with bacteria from yogurt is the best option.

so... 3 things: exercise, water and yogurt.

by the way, i live in cheshire ct.
