Having been under treatment for Lyme for just over two months, I have
made several adjustments to my program as I continue to educate myself
and work with my doctors. My updated treatment information can be found
on my site at http://www.BetterHealthGuy.com. As always, I would

{whew, glad we got that out of the way... Now, where were we?}

Here are the specific therapies that I am implementing at this time:

1) I am currently taking Levaquin 500mg per day. I have a strong
desire to lessen or eliminate the antibiotics once I move to some other
therapies. At a minimum, I will start pulsing. However, at this
time, I do feel like the antibiotics are needed on a daily basis. I am
also taking 500000U Nystatin four times a day to combat any yeast
issues which may arise.

2) I am taking 15 drops of Prima Una de Gato (TOA-Free Cat's Claw)
twice a day. My LLMD generally does not recommend more than 24-30
drops per day.

3) I am using NDF to help with detox and removal of any heavy metals.
I suggest talking with your doctor on any heavy metal detoxification
program. My current dosage is 4 drops twice per day. You can read
more about NDF, from the BioRay site.

4) In an attempt to help my body further detoxify, I am using a far
infrared sauna for 30 minutes per day. My LLMD suggested that sweating
was a very good way to help with the detoxification process. So, I
decided to purchase a portable unit for me to use at home. The source
that I used for the sauna offers them at a very reasonable cost. They
can be contacted via their web site at SaunaPeddler.com.

5) I also use Detox Foot Pads while sleeping at night as another
adjunctive therapy for supporting my body's ability to detox. Further
information on detox foot pads, is available on my Detoxification and
Detox Foot Pads pages.

6) I take whey protein as often as possible. My LLMD recommends two
scoops per day for glutathione production and detox support.

7) I just started electromagnetic frequency device treatment with
Ondamed. I am doing this treatment 1-2 times weekly at present. This
was mentioned at the Hope to Heal Lyme conference by Dr. Steven Bock.

8) I take also several supplements. The complete list is available
below.

My Supplement List

My personal list of supplements changes on a regular basis. I am
making it available here on the site for your review and would also
appreciate any feedback you may have. If you don't already have Adobe
PDF Reader, you can get for free by clicking on the "Get Adobe Reader"
image below.

Future Treatment Options

My doctor continues to warn me that treatment of Lyme Disease is a
marathon and not a sprint. I tend to be overly aggressive and want
everything now.

1) I am considering using Rife Technology. If you have not already
read the book, an excellent book on this topic is "When Antibiotics
Fail...Lyme and Rife Machines". I am likely going to use the GB-4000.

2) I am ordering the KMT23 device. This is a device that can be used
for organism inhibition. The device is from Dietrich Klinghardt, M.D.,
Ph.D.

3) I will be working in Coconut Oil. I believe it has merit, but did
not tolerate it well when I started with too much at once. So, I need
to introduce it again very slowly next time.

4) Argentyn 23 (colloidal silver) has already been purchased from my
LLMD, and I am working out the best time to introduce it into my
program.

Please always feel free to Contact Me.

In Better Health,

Then Randy copied some of the site and pasted it here, so people could
read what "The Better Health Guy" is saying, rather than just assuming
it's another SPAM and discounting it without even going to the site.

I think this is the key to not being called a Spammer if you aren't one
and you just want to tell us how you think we can get better - Tell Us
What Made *YOU* Better. Every single time someone comes here and says,
"I have fibromyalgia but I have less pain. Click here to find out how
.. . . " people automatically assume it's a SPAM and they pass it by,
delete it or ridicule it.

But I also think *some* people out there just really think they've
'keyed in' on a few things and they want to share their secrets. SHARE
THEM THEN!! Share them HERE. Don't ask us to go looking, to come to
your site, to 'click on here' to find out your mysterious solution.
Just tell us. If we like what we see, THEN we might be willing to go
to the website.

We're not Morons. We WANT to feel better. We've just seen way too
much shilling and we've all become leery of snake oil salesmen. You
don't need a fancy website that has to be paid for by selling
advertising on your page. If making money is your primary goal - you
don't really want to help us. You want to make money. If your primary
goal is to help us - don't make it about money at ALL. Just tell us
what you think.

Now, here's what *I* think about some of The Better Health Guy's
statements:

Your disclaimer could be much shorter - especially if you weren't
trying to make money from selling advertising space on your site.

I agree, Randy. LOL

I dislike antibiotics, period. The more they're used, the less
effective they become <IMO>. But you're talking about Lyme, not Fibro,
and I don't want to get into the issue of treating Lyme with long-term
antibiotics. Others may.

I took Una de Gato (Cat's Claw) for over a year and found it helped me.
I switched to Moducare and found it helped me more. In the end, I went
off ALL supplements and prescriptions I was taking for FM and that
helped me most. I was virtually symptom-free and working full-time at
a very physical job that was also very stressful - without ANY symptoms
of Fibromyalgia. My brain aneurysm was discovered in January and my
fibro symptoms have come back somewhat, but I'm still doing relatively
well on the fibro front, all things considered.

I also think the sweating thing has some merit. When I lived in the
city I went for a sweat at least three times a week, and often did
stretching exercises in the sweatroom. Unfortunately, there's no
sweats available near here. But I always felt better afterward.

I have no comment on any of the rest of the protocol, but will comment
on this:

I think that's true of Fibromyalgia too - and that 'over-thinking' the
problem and the solution can become part of the problem. Stress
exacerbates symptoms in both these conditions and stressing out about
Protocols, treatments, supplements, odd diets and ALL this is
self-defeating in the end.

I say eat what makes you feel better, do as much as you can without
making yourself feel worse, and try to get your mind OFF your
'condition' and on to other things in life. This requires some trial
and error to see what foods make you feel better and worse, but
generally a healthy balanced diet with very little junk food is best.

But that's <JMO>. I have different fish to fry now, but in the end I
think the same advice applies to me as well - I need to eat well, do as
much as I can without making myself feel worse, and try to get my mind
OFF my brain aneurysm and epilepsy and on to other things in life.
That's what will help me the most in the long run. Easy to say, simple
concept - HARD to do. Just like quitting smoking. ;o)

Randy's comment:

> {There now, isn't that much better?}

Yes, it was. Thank you, Randy.

Take GOOD Care,

Jane
