Dear Stephen, I was on your herbal protocol for about eight months. My energy and cognitive ability have improved, but I have a constant sinus issue, and am always congested in my nose and throat.
Co-Infections
Babesia without lyme
Dear Stephen, Please help me. On the right side of my head I have seizure activity, like one is on a jackhammer. Tests show I have significant high levels of babesia, but no lyme.
L-form lyme bacteria and EBV
Dear Stephen, Recently I found through blood tests that my EBV has become active. Will your protocol help put the EBV back to sleep again? Also will your protocol deal with l-form bacteria, not just spirochetes?
Lomatium dosage information
Dear Stephen, What form, dosage and duration of lomatium do you recommend to bring down an increased viral load associated with lyme?
Cryptolepis dose too low to be effective?
Dear Stephen, I have been working up my dose of cryptolepsis for babesia. After two months I am only up to eight drops twice a day. Is it helpful at killing babesia at such a comparatively low dose?
Treating viruses with lyme
Dear Stephen, After a year of lyme treatment, I recently tested positive for several viruses including EBV, HHV6 and varicella. Are there any herbs that can lower my viral load and help keep these viruses at bay?
Lyme and the flu vaccine
Dear Stephen, Should someone with lyme disease get the annual flu shot? My son is a college student away from home and usually gets the flu shot each year.
Q fever with lyme
Dear Stephen, I received a late report, following a lyme diagnosis this summer, that I’ve had chronic Q Fever. What herbs might you be aware of that will help eradicate this infection, in addition to the lyme protocol?
Treating co-infections first
Dear Stephen, Do you suggest also treating bartonella before lyme? Should I stop the core protocol and treat the co-infections first or add herbs for treating the bartonella and babesia to the core protocol?
Where do I start?
Dear Stephen, I have a lot of infections – lyme, bartonella, babesia, mycoplasma, hhv-6 and ebv. Should I do something broad-spectrum or is there an infection I should focus on first?
