Herbs
Cryptolepis side effects
Dear Stephen, Does the herb cryptolepis have side effects?
Herb resistance
Dear Stephen, Do you know if the critters develop resistance to the herbs like they do with antibiotics?
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).
Insomnia
Dear Stephen, The inability to sleep is a constant and dangerous symptom of this disease for many lyme patients. What can you suggest to those like myself where the problem lies in the brain function itself?
Is boneset the same herb as comfrey?
Dear Stephen, I have started taking boneset and it really helps me with symptions. My question is: are boneset and comfrey the same thing?
Andrographis allergic reaction
Dear Stephen, I wanted to report to you another allergic reaction to andrographis – I had a sudden attack of hives that gradually worsened until my whole body was bright red with huge white welts that were extremely hot and itchy.
Severe muscle spasms and pain
Dear Stephen, Can you briefly explain the mechanism by which lyme causes muscle spasms? I know that low magnesium, calcium or potassium could cause spasms, but I know that there are other factors at work as well.
Bad reaction to artemisinin
Dear Stephen, I have lyme disease and tried artemisinin and had a bad reaction. What do I do now and why did this happen?
Staying on your protocol
Dear Stephen, I am usually pretty good at staying on the regimen but once every month or two I take a break for a couple of days. I have had a few bad relapses due to this, and am concerned that the herbs only work while they are being taken.
