The Illness Saga: Lyme Disease, Fibromyalgia, Savella, and Cymbalta

So, as lots of you know, I went through a bout of illness last year. I told you I’d make a video explaining, so here you go!

My Experience with MMS for Lyme Disease

I took MMS, Miracle Mineral Supplement, for treatment of my Lyme disease for approximately four months. In this video, I report what I observed during those four months. Since I made this video a couple of weeks ago, I have re-started MMS temporarily for an acute infection, and have had NO herxheimer response, other than a bit of fatigue, at a dose of 30 drops a day. This is atypical of my response with the chemical, as previously, I could only tolerate 15 drops a day (at most). I believe my increased tolerance is a result of the fact that since I stopped MMS in March, my pathogen load has been dramatically reduced by other strategies that I have used to treat Lyme disease since then. I believe MMS to be highly effective for treating Lyme, but if you decide to use this method, I would strongly advise taking a powerful toxin binder and doing detox protocol along with it, while supporting your body’s systems as necessary.

Lyme Tachycardia associated with Chronic Lyme Disease

This is what I have every day. Some Dr.’s have written this off to Anxiety, but the problem is that I’m not anxious. This is an easy diagnosis when you can’t come up with what the real cause is. I can always see the question mark over the ER Doctors heads when it gets out of control and I have to go in and get IV Beta Blockers to bring it down. Even my Cardiologist calls it Ideopathic Tachycardia, which simply means you have it, but we don’t know why….. One Crazy Disease This Is !!!!!!!
