Dear Stephen, Before I started your protocol my WBC was 2.7. My labs just came back on my WBC at 2.2, my neutrophils are 0.7. My doctor got so concerned that she referred me to a hematologist. Are there any herbs I can take to increase my WBC?
blood/lymph issues
Anemia common with lyme?
Dear Stephen, Is there a connection between lyme/bartonella and anemia? Do you see this with other lyme patients?
Red root and nattokinase okay together?
Dear Stephen, My doctor says I have “thick” blood and should take nattokinase. Is there an overlap between the red root and nattokinase?
Elevated levels of porphryins on urine test
Dear Stephen, Can lyme biotoxins cause an elevated level of porphryins on a urine test?
Knotweed, red clover and hypercoagulation
Dear Stephen, With lyme and hypercoagulation, if one is taking Japanese knotweed, or any of the other herbs in the protocol, are there any contraindications with drinking Sir Jason Winters Tea?
Anemia / poor circulation
Dear Stephen, Is there anything more I can be doing to aid my circulation in the event of fewer red blood cells because of babesia, or to increase my red blood cell production?
Pregnenolone, vincamine, Huperzine A
Dear Stephen, What are the pros/cons of long term use of pregnenolone, vincamine & Huperzine A?
Re: Your response to my question on hypercoagulation
Dear Stephen, Just for your own information and future reference, I was tested for and was found to have severe hypercoagulation, even after 3 months on andrographis (3 400mg doses, 3x/day).
Red root and hypercoagulation
Dear Stephen, Red root encourages blood clotting—and most lymies actually need blood thinners. What do you think about this?
