This week, I talked more about treating my Lyme disease with herbs and antibiotics, and some of the pitfalls. It's a slow process, good days and bad days. I also talked about how important it is to make sure your lymphatic system is functioning properly so that you can carry the waste products of the microbes out of your system. Food, exercise, herbs! Then we talked about the Summer Solstice, what it actually is and how to observe. We finished with a study that shows that resistance training can extend your life!

This week, I talked about having accepted that yep, I have active Lyme disease again, and how I'm treating it. Amoxicillin to take the top off, all kinds of Buhner herbs to fight Lyme and coinfections, and probiotics to keep my immune system healthy and to replace what the antibiotics are killing. Gentle exercise, no cycling , and rest rest rest. As I'm sitting here typing this I can see my bike club riding past my house on the way back from a ride I was suppose to be on. Well, I will keep treating and hope that I feel well enough to ride in a few weeks!

This week, I talked about post-viral syndrome that can happen to anyone, and also to people with long COVID or long vax syndromes. It's where your immune system stays kicked up even after fighting off a current infection, and gives you symptoms like fatigue, dizziness, cough, and digestive upset. We talk about help for this. Then, we had a listener ask for a review of tick repellants and tick born illness, so we got started on that. We also talked about the dreaded Lone Star Tick. Better not to be bitten by one of those!
