KIDNEY RELATED ISSUES

JOINT PRESERVATION AND COLLAGEN
We had a few members inquire about joint preservation and collagen. This is what we have found on those subjects. We will edit this as we find more on joint preservation. If you have a good article, feel free to add it in the comments.

JAW ISSUES
We were asked more than a few times on this topic, so we found a few resources for you. It is often associated with Bartonella. "This case report and the relevant literature review aim to emphasize the importance of accurate request of medical history and differential diagnosis of acute TMJ arthritis and arthralgia." https://bmcoralhealth.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12903-021-01744-4 "If you expect you may have TMJ, you should see a medical doctor to rule out the poss

IVIG (Intravenous Immune Globulin)
IVIG is a product made from the serum of between 1,000 and 20,000 donors per dose. (Note: we have never done this, just information sharing.) This therapy can help people with weakened immune systems or other diseases fight off infections. It is, however, not for treating infections. Again, this is a treatment for the immune system. A diagnosis of chronic Lyme disease does not qualify a person for IVIG. Lyme patients get IVIG when they are low on IgG immune subclasses on spec


IONIC FOOT BATH
"It is also important to point out that, like any other product that is manufactured, foot baths that are available to the public for purchase span a wide range in quality. Both patients and practitioners should stay away from foot baths that consistently generate only the brown color and rust debris when various patients place their feet in the water. This shows that no detoxing is happening and that these baths are simply creating rusty water." https://lymerecoveryclinic.co


INTERNAL VIBRATIONS, TREMORS, BRAIN ZAPS, ELECTRIC SHOCK SENSATIONS AND CRANIAL NEUROPATHY

HOW TO NAVIGATE THROUGH INSURANCE DENIALS AND GET YOUR DOCTOR'S ORDERS APPROVED
We would appreciate anyone who works in the industry or has good information to share to comment and help make this post more helpful. We have found that WE, the patients, often have to push for the ordering doctor to do a PEER TO PEER. I am unsure why they don't just immediately do it but please keep that in mind. You must kindly INSIST your doctor does the peer to peer. An approval can often happen when they take this step. Using plenty of the right codes too made a differe

INFRARED SAUNA THERAPY
I have used traditional infrared saunas but last several years I use an infrared sauna mat with a foil wrap that also has PEMF, photon, amethyst, etc. I prefer it and my doctor recommended I use this route to gain all the benefits. See my post about the exact mat he recommended for me at the bottom of this post with discount code. Here is some information to learn about infrared sauna therapy: https://www.tiredoflyme.com/infrared-sauna-and-lyme-disease.html https://drjockers.

INFLAMMATION / PAIN
Inflammation is a big deal in this disease. We are including several articles about inflammation for a better understanding of the causes as well as solutions and prevention.

IMMUNE SYSTEM
We wanted to share our knowledge and the information gathered through surveys from our members. This research was done to help identify the most effective and commonly used tips and supplements to boost our IMMUNE SYSTEM. We are not advising you to do all of these but this is certainly helpful as a resource to revisit. We have information on most of these to share if needed. We hope this helps you. The order is random and not done by order of importance. Solutions post:...


HYPOGLYCEMIA IN LYME
"Lyme disease can impair adrenal function, which in turn can cause reactive hypoglycemia (blood sugar swings). This is also a common symptom of Babesia. Hypoglycemia was one of the first symptoms I experienced." https://www.globallymealliance.org/blog/dear-lyme-warrior-help-3 "Many Lyme and Babesia patients experience hypoglycemia and also find themselves treated by doctors who aren’t familiar with the connections. As a result, hypoglycemics, like myself, also struggle with w


HYPERTHERMIA
We haven't done hyperthermia so no personal experience. If you have, please comment below to share your experience. This topic comes up from time to time, so we wanted to share some sources we found. Resources: "Whole-body hyperthermia treatment puts a patient in a special thermal chamber. Then, using infrared-A-irradiation, the core temperature of the body is carefully increased. The goal is to bring the patient’s body temperature to at least 106° F (41.1° C), the point at w


HYPERCOAGULATION
Do not let this topic scare you. We only post this because it does come up and there are some great tools doctors use to help this issue.

I also was told to increase after having Covid. 25% OFF: Us.fullscript.com/welcome/theriseabovelyme "What happens to the blood when there is inflammation from viruses, bacteria, mold, and mast cell activation syndrome


HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY
There are many who have gained benefit from it's use and some mention negative experiences. Some say it could be best not to use it with active Bartonella (and potentially Babesia) because Bartonella loves oxygen. BUT I've also been told those negative experiences reported are consistent with not using a “Lyme style protocol”, not titrating up in time and pressure, or not using long enough. Lots of confusing information. So our advice is to use it under the supervision of som
