Dear Stephen, I have chronic lyme disease but one of my most problematic co-infections is strep bacteria. My LLMD thinks that the strep is actually my biggest problem right now.

Cat’s claw’s contraceptive properties
Dear Stephen, I’ve read that uncaria tomentosa is also a contraceptive. I always wondered at what dosage it is, and how long it takes to stop being effective when you stop taking it. Do you know?
Neuro lyme: severe brain fog and derealization
Dear Stephen, My “primary” symptoms are SEVERE, 24 hour a day brain fog (derealization, cloudy head, novocaine brain), severe fatigue, anxiety, rage, blurry vision w/floaters, dizziness, vertigo, etc.

Dear Stephen, What form, dosage and duration of lomatium do you recommend to bring down an increased viral load associated with lyme?
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 presenting as Parkinson’s?
Dear Stephen, My mother has Parkinson’s, which I suspect might be lyme related, but she hasn’t been tested yet. Her condition is atypical in it’s very fast progression. Do you know of any useful herbs?
Diarrhea from protocol
Dear Stephen, My husband has been using your protocol for about 6 weeks and is now on the full dose regimen. He has had pretty bad diarrhea the entire time. Do you have any suggestions?
CFS/FMS with lyme
Dear Stephen, I have chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. My lyme test was negative but I have enough symptoms along with high virus counts, etc. that your lyme herbs seemed worth a try.
Weakening immunity with antibiotics
Dear Stephen, Do you find it effective for people to pulse herbs/antibiotics if they’re not able to wean off of antibiotics?
Air hunger
Dear Stephen, I know there are other people that have this issue and that I am not crazy, but it seems like I have forgotten how to breathe. Have you heard of this and is it solvable?
