However when 1st treating streptococcinum I developed sore throats.<br /><br />So following these treatments, I have now treated all the suspected co-infections with the bionic since leaving germany.<br /><br />I have just visited my local naturopath to get tested (with a vega machine – similar to Biocom that Dr W uses) for these co-infections to check I have cleared them.<br /><br />Results were: -<br />NEGATIVE for:<br />all strains of streptococcus,<br />candida parapsil,<br />bartonella<br />borrelia<br />lead<br /><br />POSITIVE for:<br />Candida albicans<br />Mercury<br /><br />So now I plan to continue treating the candida with the bionic + am going to treat mercury followed by infusions (essential when treating mercury) & then start with a blood nosode to be able to treat any other infections that we haven’t identified.<br /><br />How am I???<br />Well I’m keeping well off abx – now been off them for 4 mths & no relapses.<br />I have very good energy levels, am playing lots of sports & managing late nights out without suffering any fatigue effects.<br /><br />My symptoms: - I still however do have the following persistant neuro symptoms:<br />- imbalance/vertigo – swinging/rocking sensation (like on ship)<br />- parasthesia (tingling all over)<br />- shooting sensations up arms & legs<br /><br />none of the above symptoms have improved nor worsened with treatment.<br /><br />Overall thoughts – I am still very happy with the bionic treatment & remain confident it will keep me well.<br />As for the persistant neuro symptoms – I’ll wait see over time & with further bionic treatment is these disappear……………………??<br /><br /><br />I’ll continue to keep posting to keep any followers of this blog updated<br />Until next time………………….<br />Surfbabe!!surfbabehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11588236286434895362noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803987664816638144.post-18302086273186145812009-04-03T03:42:00.000-07:002009-04-03T03:43:08.096-07:00CO-INFECTION TX - TOXOPLASMOSISthis week i started co-infection treatment for toxoplasmosis with bionic machine.<br /><br />i've had 2 sessions so far & it has hit me hard with bad diarrohea & vomiting - so obviously killing something in my gut or massive release of toxins??<br /><br />i'm now going to take 2 wk break then treat another co-infection (strep or candida)so i'll keep posting on this blog after each co-infection tx or whenever i feel some significant progress/change in symptoms to report.<br /><br />bye for now<br />xxsurfbabehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11588236286434895362noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803987664816638144.post-77639843137529670082009-04-03T03:22:00.001-07:002009-04-03T03:36:19.619-07:003 WKS SINCE GERMANY -REFLECTIONS ON TXHi there,<br />it's now over 3 weeks since i returned from bionic treatment in Germany so i thought i'd write an update on how i'm getting on...........<br /><ul><li>my energy levels are still good - i'm playing golf, tennis, swimming, managing late nights out............</li><li>i've had no further night sweats</li><li>i've had no relapses - i've been off abx 10 wks now & normally prior to bionic tx, i've relapsed badly within 3-4 wks of stopping abx but not now :-) it's great not to be popping so many pills every day !!</li><li>however i still do have lingering neuro sx - vertigo/imbalance, tingling, shooting sensations uo arms & legs. - not sure if these are still borrelia related or co-infection? (as Dr W said may take 4 mths for borrelia sx to clear) - so we'll see...........................</li></ul><p>overall i'm very glad i made the trip to germany. i will have a better opinion on effectiveness of treatment in 6 mths time - so i'll keep u all updated here..................................</p><p> </p>surfbabehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11588236286434895362noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803987664816638144.post-8024888557909122352009-03-11T03:48:00.000-07:002009-03-11T04:49:36.946-07:00I'M CLEAR OF BORRELIA!!!!!!!had photon treatment #5 on monday, then got tested for borrelia & co-infections on tuesday.<br /><br /><br />GOOD NEWS -yesterday i was given all clear of borrelia by Dr Woitzel :-) so was celebrating with champagne!!! ´(ok i know not good for strict diet but hey its worth celebrating!!)<br /><br /><br />it's hard to believe that i no longer have borrelia as i've been ill with it for over 10 years.<br /><br />the main symptoms i would say have improved are: - ankle, knee & spinal joint pains & spinal stiffness. I've still got lots of dizziness & imbalance - but this must be caused by co-infections?<br /><br /><br />i managed to ask Dr W more questions on how the photon therapy works & whether borrelia is actually cleared from my body. i will share with you his replies:<br /><br />- he said there are 2 schools of thought:<br /><br />1) borrelia is eliminated from the body with photon therapy.<br /><br />2) the photons change the frequency of the borrelia so that it is no longer functioning at a frequency that makes us sick & with symptoms. (this latter thought is what Dr W said he believed). so we become asymptomatic.<br /><br /><br />i also carried out some tests for co-infections, using the nososdes i had purchased from Meripharm pharmacy.<br /><br />here are the results:<br />Borrelia (DR W) -NEGATIVE<br />Borrelia, babs, ehrli -NEGATIVE<br />Bartonella - little (with Biotensor)<br />EBV - NEGATIVE<br />Candida Parapsil -Little<br />Candida Mona (Albicans) -POSITIVE (50)<br />Candida Krusei -NEGATIVE<br />Streproconnum - POSITIVE (40)<br />Strepto haemolyt -POSITIVE (50)<br />Streptococcus Viridians -POSITIVE (50)<br />Staphylococcus -NEGATIVE<br />Chlamydia Trachom -NEGATIVE<br />Filariose -Little<br />Listeriose -NEGATIVE<br />Toxoplasmosis -POSITIVE (50)<br />Mycoplasma -NEGATIVE<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Flying back to my sunshine home tomorrow - cant wait :-) i'm sure there'll be a few more fiestas to come............................<br /><br />my plan now is to treat co-infections with the bionic machine<br /><br />i'll continue to update this blog regularly for those that are following my progress so you can see how i progress post treatment.<br /><br /><br />thanks for following my treatment -

same as before: photon therapy + infusions.<br /><br />after effects: - still getting drenching night sweats & increased joint pain & inflammation.<br />(prior to coming to germany i hadnt had night sweats for about 1 year but now getting every night, so either its my body's way of ridding toxins or co-infection are back active??)<br /><br />went to Meripharm (<a href="http://www.meripharm.de/">www.meripharm.de</a>) in nearby town baden-baden to buy some more nosodes for co-infections.<br />(for those coming to germany for bionic - i highly recommend this pharmacy to get the co-infections nososdes as they have a large stock & do not require prescription - check out their website for full list of nosodes - they sell most apart from bartonella & babesia - i got these from <a href="http://www.desbio.com/">www.desbio.com</a> in usa prior to coming to Germany)<br /><br />next treatment monday....... + testing for co-infections so will be interesting to see what Dr W finds in me..............................surfbabehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11588236286434895362noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803987664816638144.post-85102150838460619412009-03-02T23:59:00.000-08:002009-03-03T00:34:53.450-08:00PHOTON TREATMENT #3<span style="font-family:arial;">Hello!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">had a fun-filled weekend with other lymies -

The doc thoroghly read my history & just said "you poor sick girl"!!! - well i dont feel too sick at the mo - but for those who dont know me i was severly ill with lyme a few years back pre abx.<br /><br />anyway - i got tested for borrelia & unfortunately the dial barely moved past 10 on his machine - which indicates very high lyme load :-( so after 5 years of abx i still have a high lyme load!! - i can only believe that all the abx i've taken have only pushed the borrelia into dormant cystic form ???? & he identified the worst affected lyme areas of my body as lymphatics, lungs & colon.<br /><br />i didnt actually start any photon treatment today as Dr Woitzel was concerned about my neuro symptoms - i have v bad vertigo, imbalance, swinging/rocking feeling & shooting sensations & tingling. - he insisted i had a MRI scan to clear any other possibily of brain tumours etc.<br />so off i went to another clinic & spent day waiting & having MRI scan - fortunately all was cleared as normal so my neuro sx are still infection related.<br /><br />photon treatment will now start on monday so i'll update you again after that..................<br /><br />for now at weekend in the snow - its minus 6C here!!! how i long for my spanish beach in the sun!!surfbabehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11588236286434895362noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803987664816638144.post-66958341105882150032009-01-30T01:38:00.000-08:002009-02-12T12:27:21.787-08:00BIONIC TREATMENT GERMANYHi,<br />I'm due to start bionic photon treatment in Germany next week on friday february 20th . so plan to write this blog so other lymies can follow my treatment progress.<br /><br />Here's a bit aboout me - i initially contracted lyme 10 years ago but only chronically ill 8 years ago. (bedbound 3 years, unable to walk, BP problems (NMH/POTS) , severe neuro sx etc). I've been on abx for 5 years. These have helped me immensely but whenever i stop them i relapse. so i'm hoping this bionic treatment will keep me well without meds.<br /><br />i'll write next from Germany.................surfbabehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11588236286434895362noreply@blogger.com0
