Eclipse and symptoms

I have been hurting pretty bad the last few days and I read something about full moons affecting lyme so I'm curious if anyone else is feeling worse as the eclipse approaches?

It could also be a bad herx as LLMD is trying to treat bart and I'm still not on full dose. I suspect I'll need to go back on antibiox as some of the twitching/jumping has returned in my legs, and the numbness in hands is back. My feet hurt so bad I can barely walk in the morning, and the fatigue is hitting me hard.

So if it is the eclipse making symptoms magnified, I'm hoping they lessen once it's over!

I don't know if it's related to the eclipse (I didn't think about it until now, actually) =), but I've had more pain than usual the past few days. I thought maybe it was going to rain (I usually have an increase in pain before & while it is raining), but no rain where I live. I used to be a teacher, and I can say with all certainty, that full moons have an affect on us. =) P.S. I also just started antibiotics for Lyme and Bart a week ago.

Funny you said this, I have been wondering the same thing myself over the past few days... it's good to know I'm not the only one!

10LymeB I was thinking post-eclipse should be better for all those reasons you stated. Sure hope so!

PeteZa - the extra detoxing is a good idea. Last weekend was not fun!

Kat, when your feet hurt really bad like that, you may want to consider the use of 4 thieves oil on them. It's something I tried when it felt like I had a railroad spike rammed 3 inches into my heal. I was so desperate, I was trying all kinds of things, but most only gave minor relief, until I tried the 4 thieves oil (an Essential Oil blend). I used it the first day and had enough relief that I wanted to do it again - by the third day in a row of use, my heal pain was nearly gone.

It did come back, so I thought 'okay, so I have to keep going back to this from time to time. That's okay, because at least it helps!' - what I found out for me, is that after going back to it 3 times, my heal pain has been gone for about 3 months!!!! I had a shooting pain in my heal just yesterday, so I made sure I knew where my 4 thieves oil was, but have not needed it yet again.

Essential Oils (EO's) are expensive, but if you can afford to get one, it may be of help to you as well.

Traveler - I have not heard of that one so I will definitely check it out! I believe my acupuncturist uses Young Living brands, but I am meeting with someone from Do Terra next week that a neighbor introduced me to and will ask her also. I've also shopped on amazon for some oils, like peppermint and eucalyptus, with good success.

My foot pain was so bad the other morning the pain was actually pulsing in the arch of my foot! Then when I got up to walk I had arch pain and that feeling of spikes in my both heels.

The best detox for me seems to be the dry brushing and baths, and I've been off my game, so not sure if it's that, running out of LDN, bad diet choices (vacation's can be killers) or herxing or what. I even had an eye twitch last night which hasn't happened since March.

I'll have to review detox methods again. I was so busy at work, then on vacation, that I sort of "fell off the wagon." I'm up to 22 drops of houttinya and I'm supposed to be at 30, so I may have been increasing too quickly.

I was feeling kind of down a couple of weeks ago, and now I wonder if it was the LDN. The aches and pains did worsen after I ran out of it, but I don't want to mask the symptoms - I want to cure the source!

On gosh, let me know about this OnGuard!

Detoxing can get in the way of life. I felt like that was all I did, all day long.

PeteZa - I believe the full name is OnGuard Protective Blend, so it is in the lyme protocol!

OnGuard is the Doterra version of Thieves, from what I know!

Blueskies - I have a lot to learn about oils! Thanks for the tips.
