August 17th
I cleared the Calcium round finally. This treatment was for Vitamin C. I had to wear it for 25 hours. I also saw Dr. Walker to recheck the areas that I used the "mud". All worked except the back of my right hand so I'll have to put "mud" on my hand for 12 minutes. The biologist, Dr. Walker and Dr. Renee have constantly said that something is wrong with my right kidney. Dr. Walker tested it and said that it's sensitive to metals. I know for sure I'm allergic to nickel and chromium so he thinks those two plus others are causing problems with my kidney. He was going to give me something but I waited to see Dr. Renee since she's been dishing out all the herbals and deciding what I can and can't take. She ended up putting me on two tinctures: Hepata-chord and Rena-Chord. Both are supposed to detox my kidney. And I have to drink at least one gallon of water a day. That's a real challenge for me but I'm doing my best! I seem to have more energy these days. There for a while I would come home and take my work boots off and couldn't get out of the chair for 20 minutes. Now I'm coming in the door and starting a load of laundry, cleaning something, washing dishes, etc. I haven't had energy in a long time so this is a big step for me. (8/22/15 - I pressure washed the deck and patio with lots of energy left!) So I think we might be getting some where. I'm not sure if it's the NAET or the herbs or both but I'm feeling 25% better? If I could just lose some damn weight!

3rd NAET Treatment didn't take
August 10th, 2015 I had to redo the calcium naet treatment. Apparently my body doesn't know what to do with calcium (probably why so many bone spurs). She checked everything in the mix and all my organs. Some worked, some didn't. My small intestines, stomach, and kidney are still fighting against the Calcium Mix. So we redid the whole thing. This time I only had to keep the vile on my body for 25 hours. Last time was 35 hours. Hopefully when I go back Monday it will be clear. At $63 a treatment I cannot afford to repeat any, I have so many more to go! Dr. Renee keeps telling me how bad my kidney is. The biologist also said something about it. Hope they fix it! I also finished all my "mud" treatments so Monday I will see Dr. Walker to be rechecked for all my surgery and injection areas. It doesn't hurt so bad when I see him, it's only $20. Dr. Renee didn't add any supplements or anything, she just seemed concerned that the calcium didn't clear and wanted to get that taken care of. She mentioned that some people have a really hard time with it, guess I'm one of those people.

Current Medications and Supplements
Before I was diagnosed I was on medication for Fibromyalgia. Lyrica and muscle relaxers helped for a few years but just with nerve pain. I had my general practitioner take me off everything right around the time I took the blood test with the biologist. It hit me hard at first and then it leveled out. Just to keep up to date with what I'm taking currently I'm adding the list today and why I'm taking them.
I am currently taking:
1 vitamin E 400 I.U.
2 Turmeric Curcumin 500 MG
2 claritin (ingredient found to kill lyme)
2 garlic
2 coq10 200mg
2 Natures Sunshine LBS II
2 Nature's Sunshine Immune Stimulator
6 Researched Nutritionals Soothe and Relax
1 Garden of Life Woman's probiotic refrigerated
Vitamin E - I have been taking it for a long time. It helps with your heart and immune system.
Turmeric Curcumin - helps with inflammation, I was on this for a little while before diagnosed to help with joint pain
Claritin - I started taking it right before diagnosed and stayed on it after because scientists have found that the main ingredient is killing lyme
Garlic - Dr. Renee just added this to help boost my immune system. It also helps with blood pressure, cholesterol, may prevent alzheimers and dementia, detoxify against heavy metals, and can help your bones.
CoQ10 - I've been taking it for a long time and Dr. Renee wanted me to double the dosage as it will help my joints. Helps with circulation, heart, and cholesterol.
Natures Sunshine LBS II - Dr. Renee added for chronic constipation problems. I was taking magnesium but my body was rejecting it so I switched to this.
Nature's Sunshine Immune Stimulator - added to boost immune system
Researched Nutritionals Soothe and Relax - added to help relax my muscles and helps with joints
Garden of Life Woman's probiotic - I was taking 9 a day and my body couldn't handle it so Dr. Renee brought me down to 1 a day. Helps with healing your gut.
Everything we are working on right now is to help my immune system and heal my gut so my body is strong and ready to fight off the lyme.

3rd NAET Treatment and results from coinfections test
August 4th, 2015
3rd NAET treatment
This time I didn't need to bring anything but myself. I was told ahead of time that I wouldn't have to avoid anything yay! So I thought for sure I would fail the egg mix test because I was around eggs and chicken all day Saturday, I just didn't touch them. But I held strong and passed the test. Unfortunately Saturday after I did all my grocery shopping I crashed hard. By the time I left the 2nd of the two stores we go to I was starting to hurt. By the time I got home I could hardly walk. I never take naps and I fell asleep on the couch during an action movie that I love (Road House). Pain just wiped me out! I kept thinking it was the treatment. But then I thought maybe it was because I eliminated all of those things I was sensitive too. I asked Dr. Renee about it today and she said that's probably what it was. So she upped my dose of the Soothe and Relax meds to the max to help my pain.
She wanted to boost my immune system before we start the "kill", as she called it. You have to get yourself strong before you jump in and attack borellia or it will attack back and you can have a bad reaction. So we are trying to boost my immune system and heal my gut. She put me on Immune Stimulator 2 daily and Garlic 2 daily.
Then she did the treatment for Calcium. Because Calcium is so hard to avoid and is part of your body and in your bones I have to do things different this time. Instead of avoiding I have to keep this little vile of calcium on my skin at all times for the next 35 hours. So I taped it to my chest. She said if at any time it loses contact to not touch it. Then of course every 2 hours I have to do stimulate the 10 points on my body with my mini vibrator (haha), except when sleeping. This time I'm going to have to do this at work, this will be a challenge. Will have to plan stops every 2 hours, that will be a treat! ha!
I also received my results from my coinfections test that I had blood drawn on Tuesday for. NEGATIVE! Yay! That's a very good thing! Someone with coinfections with their lyme can have a lot more symptoms and recovery can take longer. Unfortunately the person I know with lyme has 11 out of 15 and it's awful awful awful!
Dr. Renee said the great thing about that is she can treat me for all those coinfections to keep me from getting them (hopefully). Once you have lyme the coinfections can happen at any time, the longer you have it the more likely you are going to get some, so if she blocks them now plus all my other treatments I should never get them. Thank goodness!
Seems odd that I think I've had lyme for 10 years and I have never gotten coinfections. Only thing I can think of is my diet. For the last 6 years I've been a vegetarian and try to eat organic. Eat healthy=healthy gut=no added health issues.
So for now, take my pills as prescribed by Dr. Renee, keep this vile of calcium on my body for 35 hours, and vibrate my points haha. And drink as much water as I can. Hopefully my pain will back off again, it was nice to feel good for a day.

2ND NAET TREATMENT
My 2nd NAET treatment was for Egg Mix. Dr. Renee also had me bring all of my supplements and prescriptions and also my tap water, bottled water, water with lemon and chai roobios tea (all the things I drink). She tested me first on the BBF to see if it was still holding strong and it was. Next she tested all my drinks. I was weak on the tap water but she said that's because I'm weak on minerals, that once she clears me of that then the tap water won't be a problem but no need to avoid it until then. The other weak drink was the bottled water with lemon. When she tested me for Vitamin C my body was rejecting it, so she told me to hold off on the lemon for now. It sucks because that's the main thing they told me to drink for Lyme.
On my prescriptions everything was fine to take. As for everything else, that was a problem. I had very few things that I could contine to take.
I was sensitive to: Lemon Water, Vitamin C, Daily Vitamin, Relax and Sleep (natural pill), Calcium, D3, Mucinex, and Magnesium.
I was ok to take: Vitamin E, CoQ10 (she wanted me to add another pill), Turmeric, and then I was taking 9 probiotics a day...she took me down to 1.
Because I was having problems with constipation and the probiotics were helping me, she added LBS. And because I couldn't take the Relax and Sleep pills she put me on Soothe and Relax (helps with relaxing muscles and joint pain).
Then after she treated me for the egg mix I had very strict orders for the next 25 hours. I had to avoid everything that has to do with a chicken. You don't realize how hard that is until you have to do it. Here's the list:
YOU MAY NOT EAT OR TOUCH: egg white, egg yolk, chicken, tetracycline and all foods containing egg or chicken including crackers, cookies, soups, breads, mayonnaise, salad dressings that contain egg product, cakes, pastries, pies, pancakes, foods baked or fried in batter and thick sauces. Also avoid, birds, feather pillows, comforters, vitamins and protein drinks made with egg, shampoos, conditioners and skin lotions with egg products.
And then I had to stimulate 10 points on my body, something like acupuncture. You can use this zapper thing but it costs $85 but only takes you 15 seconds to finish it. Or you can use this mini vibrator like thing and do each point for 15 to 20 seconds, and that cost $15. Or you can use your finger to massage at each point but you had to do it for 30-45 seconds each spot. Confusing I know, but to bring the time down I bought the $15 vibrator haha. Yeah yeah I know.
Problem with all this is, it's Friday. I normally have an omelet on Saturday morning, so oatmeal for breakfast it is. Sigh!
She asked me how I was feeling since the last treatment and I got thinking about it and I actually felt better. I used to come home, sit down and untie my work boots, then sit there for 15 to 30 minutes before I could get up to do anything. I found myself getting up right away. The day of the egg mix treatment I had the most energy I've had in a long time. Hell I drove 517 miles at work, went to 6 places after....and I don't like to shop at multiple stores, but I did it and never had a problem! Things looking up?
