Was = Sept, 2010. I started ACT in Oct, 2010, GAPS diet lasted 2 months Dec-Feb 2011, took a break from ACT but restarted in April, and started seeing chiropractic neurologist regularly in May. I will list my best time between Sept and now, which was November 2010. I had many ups and downs since November 2010, and got a life-changing immune therapy in August 2011 and since then it has been steadily uphill with all my therapies working together: ACT, immune therapy, chiropractic neurology, Access Consciousness, natural protocol w/ LDN, nutrient dense GF diet. I also think it is vitally important that ACT coded me for the immune therapy I recieved. Now = As of March, 2012.
1 is least, and 10 worst.
I will give both intensity and frequency (how often).
- Joint pain (all) Intensity – Was 7-9. As of November 2010 it was a 5. Now, 5.5. Frequency – Was 10. Now 6. Better by 35%
- Fatigue Intensity – Was 8. As of November 2010 it was a 6.5. Now 3. Frequency – Was 7. Now 2. Better by 75%
- Brain fog Intensity – Was 5-9. As of November 2010 it was a 5. Now 0.5. Frequency – Was 9. Now 4. Better by 95%
- Tendons/ligaments/joints tight/snapping/popping/grinding, etc. Intensity – Was 7-9. As of November 2010 it was a 5. Now 8. Frequency – Was 10. Now 9.5 . Same
- POTS “Omnisensory fizzle-outs” when standing or changing position Intensity – Was 8, Now 2. Frequency – 4-7x per day. Now only 1-2x week IF it happens at all! Better by 98%
- General Muscle pain Intensity – Was 3. Now 2. Frequency – Was 5. As of November 2010 it was a 3.5. Now 1. Better by 60%+/-
- Neck pain Intensity – Was 9. As of November 2010 it was a 3.5. Now 5.5. Frequency – Was 10. Now 6. Better by 50-60%
- Stomach upset & No desire to eat accompanying the upset Intensity – Was 6[stomach upset] & 10[no desire to eat]. As of November it was a 2 & 0. Now 1&0.5. Frequency – Was 6. Now 2. Better by 90%
- Insomnia & Poor sleep Intensity – Was 7. As of November 2010 it was a 1.5. Now 3. Frequency – Was 6[insomnia] & 10[poor sleep]. Now 1&2. Better by 80% Oddly I would say my sleep quality is better now than even Nov 2010…so shows perhaps an inability to judge accurately.
- Poor blood flow & Hot-Cold temp intolerance Intensity – Was 9. As of November 2010 it was a 6. Now 3&6 (split the two symptoms apart). Frequency – Was 8, now 5. Better by 65%

Hey! I’d love to chat with you about your lyme journey/treatment! Do you do ozone saunas? I have considered adding these to my protocol

Hi Shannon!
Sorry for not replying in a timely way. I have not logged in in a very long time. I have done ozone saunas. You have to be very careful to not breath the ozone fumes… They were nice and I felt very useful for mold exposures, but I was already past the Lyme part by the time I tried it.
