    History Of Chronic Pain? Investigate the Possibility of Lyme Disease. key words

    Do you have a long history of health issues with symptoms that change daily or monthly, but never go away? Think Lyme disease until proven otherwise. 

    A recent question I received:

    “I am a 38 year old mother of 4, and my life hasn’t been normal since 2007. I used to run 3-4 times a week and felt very fit.  All of a sudden, I developed inability to multi-task, painful joints, vertigo, severe headaches and what I would describe as chronic fatigue.  I’ve gone to numerous doctors for a whole string of symptoms including night sweats, double vision, brain fog, and unexplained rashes.  Last week, my sister told me to look up “Lyme Disease,” and I did. It explained my life! I called a doctor friend, but he said Lyme isn’t common in this area, so I have no idea what to do now. Can you give me some direction?” ~J.T.

    My answer: I have long had an interest in Lyme Disease because of friends battling it, and I have been exploring this in my own life and that of my family, but I am not an expert or a doctor.

    That said, these are some things I have learned that I can share for you to explore:

    Who Do You See for Lyme Disease?

    There are many Lyme-literate medical doctors (LLMDs) in the U.S., and here are several people who educate: Dr. Lee Cowden, Dr. Joseph Burrascano, Dr. Joseph Jemsek (who I would never go to knowing what I know now), and Stephen Harrod Buhner. Each has a very different perspective. The controversy surrounding Lyme is ongoing.

    What is Lyme Disease?

    Lyme disease is often misdiagnosed or dismissed. A common theme is chronic pain. Some would say Lyme disease mimics:

    • multiple sclerosis (MS)
    • Rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
    • Parkinson’s
    • ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease
    • Alzheimer’s
    • fibromyalgia
    • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
    • and even some cases of epilepsy

    But I would say it is the actual cause – so it’s a puzzle.

    That’s awful, because if you’re diagnosed incorrectly, opportunity is missed and precious antimicrobials needed to kill Lyme bugs are never taken, leading to potentially catastrophic problems. Not to be dramatic or anything- just ask a Lyme sufferer!

    According to my research, no two patients have the same symptoms, which come and go. Common complaints are:

    • poor memory
    • exhaustion
    • brain fog
    • loss of balance
    • insomnia
    • yeast infections
    • twitches
    • numbness in extremities
    • loss of muscle strength
    • anxiety
    • back/neck pain
    • neuropathy and tingling in extremities
    • headaches
    • dizziness
    • muscle/joint pain
    • cramps
    • bladder or testicular pain
    • urethritis
    • buzzing
    • depression and mood swings
    • sound sensitivity
    • eye or ear pain
    • and irregular heartbeat

    And there’s so much more.

    Are Mosquitoes Vectors For Lyme Disease?

    In 2015, I was not able to find anything from the CDC supporting that mosquitoes were a vector for Lyme at all – just ticks! The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website STILL says that “there is no credible evidence that Lyme disease can be transmitted through air, food, water, or from the bites of mosquitoes, flies, fleas, or lice.” (source)

    But, this May, 2018, the CDC reported that illnesses from mosquito, tick and flea bites have tripled in the U.S., with more than 640,000 cases reported during the 13 years from 2004 through 2016. “Zika, West Nile, Lyme – a growing list of diseases caused by the bite of an infected mosquito, tick, or flea – have confronted the U.S. in recent years, making a lot of people sick.” (source)

    Confusing?

    I fully believe Lyme is also transmitted by mosquitoes and other biting insects. The Virginia Department of Health would also agree.

    Anytime blood is exchanged – no matter how microscopic – you can transmit the co-infection. Same with kissing or having sex with someone who has Lyme. Babies contact it from mother while in utero. Often it remains dormant for months to many years.

    “For the life of a creature is in the blood…” ~Leviticus 17:11

    Now What?

    If you have a long history of health issues, with symptoms that change daily or monthly, but never go away, I’d seriously consider Lyme testing by a lab that specializes in it, for example Igenex, Fry, or Advance Labs. Inaccurate results by regular labs may produce a false negative, so you think you don’t have Lyme when you do. Years of confusion and grief may follow. The extra expense seems worth it.

    Lyme infection is not just caused by Borrelia burgdorferi, but it is a co-infection of many organisms living symbiotically such as:

    • Babesia
    • Rickettsia
    • Bartonella
    • Ehrlichia
    • Cytomegalovirus (CMV
    • Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)

    There are many more behind the many and varied symptoms.The recommended labs above are best at detecting these bugs.

    Under Our Skin – Horror to Hope

    I’d recommend watching Under Our Skin 1 (2009) and follow it up with the trailer of Under Our Skin 2 (2014). Most likely, if you have Lyme these videos will clear up much of the mystery and help you make sense of it.

    What We Are Doing

    Our family started with Monolaurin, Bio-Fibrin, and Banderol. (Update: we stopped those because they were only partially helpful and hard to regulate). DO NOT use Bio-Fibrin or Banderol without guidance from an alternative/integrative practitioner.

    We changed over to targeted homeopathics for a number of years; they differ for each person based on the uniqueness of that individual. Look for a functional doctor or a naturopath who uses an electro-dermal scanner to read frequencies in your body and then give the corresponding remedy. Homeopathic modalities work very effectively to correct the pathologies by disrupting the pathological frequencies and detoxing the problem.

    I know that is vague, but it is accurate.

    Update: Finally, we finally found a simple nano-zeolite spray, Advanced TRS, and that has put a stop to all our Lyme symptoms for once and for all.

    TRS has also detoxes out the metals that allow prions to replicate. We saw a diminishing of symptoms and much less brain fog in ~5-6 months.

    History Of Chronic Pain? Investigate the Possibility of Lyme Disease

     

    Also, the fact that prions are proteins is important, because Zeolites are known to have a strong effect on proteins, like the p21 gene responsible for cancer progression.

    The Rife machine is an excellent modality to use, but it’s only one of many.

    Hi! I’m Jacqueline!

    Thanks for being part of this journey with me.
    Welcome to my own little place on the internet! Home is where I love to be. I feel there is no greater place to incubate souls. These days you’ll find me using my experiences here to write about herbal remedies and natural health research — a big passion of mine. But being a wife and mother is not easy. It is challenging and potentially lonely. I get that. I wanted to create a place to connect with and support other moms for creating a natural, healthy, and fulfilling home life.

      I am not sure why some doctors are reluctant to test for lymes disease. Living where I do I know several people who had it. Most of the time it took several trips to the clinic and persistence to get the test. One had her toddler sent away even with the bullseye rash. She pushed and he was treated.

      I love a break from winter but pray for protection against this for my family during the warmer months.

      I would suggest that you and the reader consider following Suzy Cohen (America’s Favorite Pharmacist) on line and perhaps consider some of her books. She has battled Lyme/Babesia with her husband for many years and has many good/natural suggestions for assisting in its treatment.

        Thank you, Charlotte. Thank you for telling your friends…
        I hate it that so many just think they have arthritis or one of the autoimmune diseases. I will be praying for your friends, too, now.. This is affecting our family, and I was very afraid when I didn’t know what it was. Now that I know what we are dealing with, that probably 85-90% of all of us have at least been exposed, and that there are concrete things one can do, it helps me to deal with it. God is so good in how we came to know about Lyme disease, too! He has lead us all the way and we feel His guidance!
        Sending you warm hugs and praying for you right now! God bless you 🙂

      J- Thank you for this useful information. We watched the movie Under Our Skin and it really opened our eyes. I feel I have been suffering from Lyme for the last 3 years, with no support or help from doctors.. After the general blood test a physician does, I got the same answer of ‘no lyme disease showed up’.. and Im still left with the same symptoms.. But this movie made me feel like I should pursue further testing.. You speak of 3 different options for tests.. What type of doctor would I go to, or how can I find out who in my area uses these other tests for Lyme testing? thank you for all your help.. M. S. Wisc-

        Hi, M.S.
        This is a place to start looking for a Lyme-literate doctor: http://www.lymeresearchalliance.org/find_doctors.html
        We actually saw the first spirochetes at a Amish practice where they had a DarkField screen to look at the blood and components. We saw spirochetes (with flagella) swimming in the plasma. We all started on Monolaurin and Bio-Fibrin (very slowly and gradually since the body can herx with all the die-off) as I mentioned in the post. We all began to (excuse me) have excessive stools as the co-infections were slowly killed off and we were tired as our bodies were fighting a war. We are MUCH better today – all 4 of us. I can actually work in the garden in the heat for 33-5 hours where before I was done in 1 hour! We also have an awesome naturopath and use homeopathics. We have our minds back and are so, so thankful!
        I hope that helps! God bless you, friend!

      We just moved to Indiana from Oregon, where by the way I got to know your beautiful daughter. Congratulations on your new grandchild. I am wondering if you have any recommendations for a local doctor who specializes in celiac. My 9 year and I were diagnosed 1 year ago but she especially continuous to not feel well despite my best efforts to change diet. I would appreciate any direction. We are in Lafayette but not far from Indy. Thank you.

        Hello, Laurie, and WELCOME!! How neat that you know her! I just returned home 2 days ago from being with them for 9 days.
        I apologize, but I am pretty not tuned into the traditional medical providers anymore. I will ask around (and be thinking), bc there are still some who are worthy of our trust.
        I will email you with what I would do for celiac or for any gut related issues. You may want to go straight to a doctor, but this is a safe and effective correction that many be of interest to you!
        Blessings, Jacqueline

      Thank you for this great article!
      I confess to being confused at the end of the article. Can EBV be caused by an insect bite? It seems to be one of the co-infections. I’m confused how it fits in. It was only when I was diagnosed with Lyme, that I linked my previously undiagnosed bout with EBV years ago. How does EBV relate to Lyme Disease?
      Thanks!

        Hi, Laura!
        The word “co-infection” is often used as an umbrella term that includes not only co-infections transmitted along with Lyme, but also opportunistic infections that prey on the weakened immunity of Lyme patients.
        A subset of opportunistic infections called “re-activated opportunistic infections” consists of latent infections already present in the host, which wait for a chance to re-activate. One of these, the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), can have a significant impact on the health of people with Lyme disease.
        It is already in the body (an earlier Infection with EBV frequently happens during childhood. EBV is sometimes referred to as mononucleosis (mono), also known as “kissing disease.”) Because the symptoms of childhood EBV are usually mild and/or easily confused with those of the common cold or flu, many parents don’t realize their kids have been infected with EBV., but is reactivated when the immune system goes down.
        That is my understanding.
        I hope that helps! ~J
