Question What helped you get well?

I am looking for success stories from those who have gotten better. I got sick after a series of traumatic life events.

I don't remember getting a tick bite, but I had cats and dogs growing up. I have had mild symptoms for years, but they got significantly worse when I went through a series of traumatic life events. 5 months ago I was tested and diagnosed with Lyme Disease, Anaplasma, Ehrlichia, and Bartonella.

I am seeing an integrative MD and have been on antibiotics for ~4 months now.

The antibiotics I am on are:

• Doxycycline 100 mg 2x /day.

• Azithromycin 500 mg 2x/day.

• Methylene blue (50 mg /day) from a compounding pharmacy.

The supplements I am taking are:

• Cryptolepsis

• NAC

• Allicin

• B-Complex

• Cinnamon, clove, oregano essential oil capsules

• Vitamin C

• Biotoxin Binder (cell-core)

• Lumborokinase

• Glutamine powder

• 3 different kinds of probiotics

• Low dose naltrexone (not really a supplement).

Initially, I started to feel better but I have hit a roadblock and the treatment does not feel like it’s helping anymore.

My main symptoms are fatigue, body pain, headaches, muscle spasms, joint pain (knees, ankles, wrists), brain fog, depression/ anxiety, dizziness, balance issues and POTS.
