Dear Stephen, I’d like to know your opinion on Coriolus versicolor (turkey tail mushroom) extract, and Cordyceps sinensis, in the treatment of late-stage lyme.
Herbs
Lyme prevention in dogs
Dear Stephen, Is there a preventative course of herbal treatments to help prevent ticks from getting on the dogs? We do tick/flea baths, they wear a collar and they get the Frontline but they still get ticks.
Myelin sheath support
Dear Stephen, I have been concerned about issues with myelin sheaths. I have a lot of CNS issues and the biggest worry for me right now is the loss of sensation/numbness on mainly my right side.
Extreme ringing in ears
Dear Stephen, What do you suggest for extreme ringing in the ears from lyme? I’ve tried stephania root.
Cryptolepis dosage for kids
Dear Stephen, I understand the adult dose for cryptolepis is 1 tsp 3x day. Can you please tell me what the dose is for a 50ish lb 7 year old?
Red root for swollen lymph nodes
Dear Stephen, I tried samento and banderol and I noticed that with this treatment my lymph nodes become swollen. I also tried cat’s claw and I feel some heat in the lungs and in the spinal cord. Are these reactions good or bad?
Astragalus dose different in book vs. this website
Dear Stephen, On page 124 of Healing Lyme you recommend starting at 3,000 mg per day and working up to 16,000 mg per day, for active lyme infection. However this website now says 1,000 mg per day. Which is it?
Tinnitus
Dear Stephen, Is there any report that one of the herbs in your protocol (or taken in combination) might cause tinnitus or exacerbate an existing issue?
New directions in lyme treatment
Dear Stephen, I wonder if in the future you could concentrate on medicinal mushrooms? Also, do you know whether the Verruga peruana infection caused by Bartonella bacilliformis is effectively treated with herbs in South America?
Late stage lyme disease
Dear Stephen, I have late stage lyme and have been on your protocol for one month on the lowest dose along with taking doxycycline. I felt just a touch better a week in and now feel horrible. How long should this last?
