Dear Stephen,
I have been dealing with chemical sensitivity, Epstein Barr and lyme and am using herbs, Rife, Carnivora, and flower essences. But have still kept getting worse. Recently got a diagnosis of porphyria which may be genetic and/or may be triggered by infections, chemical sensitivity or metals. A week later I was diagnosed with chlamydia pneumoniae. This infection can produce secondary porphyria. All the practitioners I’ve seen – even the alternative ones – say that the only way to treat the chlamydia pneumoniae is with antibiotics for 6-18 months. I have avoided antibiotics for the last 20 years – except for 1 ten day course. Also many drugs, including some antibiotics can trigger pophyria attacks. Have you worked with chlamydia pneumoniae, and do you know of herbal, nutritional or homeopathic treatments? Do you know anything about natural treatment for porphyria? I am in bad shape, live in a rural area, and have doctors who do not know anything about porphyria and not much about treating multiple infections. Any advice would be appreciated.
