Lyme with chronic bacterial vaginosis

by | Sep 4, 2016 | bacterial infections, Co-Infections | 2 comments

Dear Stephen,
I have had good success with your Core Protocol and appreciated your response to a question regarding lyme and pregnancy some years ago. I have lyme and extensive allergies, and, after being mostly well for 10 years, am once again experiencing chronic vaginal symptoms. My yeast overgrowth/allergies are being well-addressed through antifungals and immunotherapy (LDA), but I have recurrent bacterial vaginosis that has not responded to various forms of treatment. I have searched the archive and your Herbal Antibiotics book, but haven’t found anything specific for gardnerella. Do you have any suggestions?


Stephen’s response:
The second edition of the Herbal Antibiotics book has more on this as does the second edition of Healing Lyme in the Chlamydia section. I would suggest the use of a douche that contains antibacterial herbs as well as some internal systemic antibacterials such as cryptolepis.

This protocol was incredible. After only a few weeks most of my symptoms were gone. After six months all my symptoms were gone… it has given me my life back.

    I’ve been told I have granuloma annulare on top of my hands to elbows. I believe I have Lyme disease (although not recognised in Australia); is there a test to determine if I have acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans? And any suggested treatment. I have your 2nd ed. book.

    I have purchased your book and have used some of the herbs mentioned with good success. I am just having an issue defeating proteus miribalis in the vagina and urinary tract. I’ve knocked a lot out with usnea, however it is still giving me symptoms as well as a non Albicans yeast. Usnea has done a really great job, just not enough to knock it completely out.
