Look into Boswellia (frankincense resin). It has steroidal actions in the body & crosses the blood/brain barrier, strong anti-cancer properties. It's a major anti-inflammatory that has 98% cured my son's asthma & allergies are very minimal/seasonal for both of us. I gave it to my son to help his asthma & hoping to get him off Singulaire (made him moody & act out) - I never expected it to help him from the first dose (everyone is different), it healed his IBS-D which was a pleasant & unexpected effect=) Be sure to choose one with 65%or higher boswellic acids!! There are several different types- Serrata, Sacra or Cartieri are the most effective. Sacra is the most expensive, we use Serrata 5oomg (NOW brand liquid gels), the freeze dried are just as good I've heard. We take 1 am/pm after meals with Vit.C (C & turmeric both help absorption). 3x a day for the first month is helpful for chronic inflammatory conditions, then cut back. Some people get diarrhea, if so, cut back dose & gradually increase as your system gets used to it. It's perfectly safe longterm- I will be taking this one for the rest of my life. It's changed our lives & I hope it helps someone reading this=) Blessings & good health to all...

Looking for some advice. My wife has Bronchiectasis and now has the mycobacterium chimaera. She has been on the relevant antibiotics a year in august. Recent lab tests confirm it is still there. She will be on the antibiotics until about January 2021,what happens after that if she still has it I do not know. We are both around the 60ish mark. I've been looking at some of the remedies on this site and my question is this: could she try some of these remedies now, while she is on antibiotics, or would said remedies destroy the antibiotics she is on?
Which remedies might be best to try first? I would be extremely grateful for any advice. Thanks

I have been diagnosed with what my infectious disease specialist called mycobacterium. After many months of regular clinic doctors throwing a bunch of different antibiotics of at what they thought was a “weird looking pneumonia”, they sent me out the door with a huge bill and no results. 7 chest x-rays, blood work, and oh yeah, the infamous and overpriced CT scan but not a clue of how to cure me. They sent off my sputum test to the Mayo to confirm that it wasn’t pneumonia or tuberculosis, they then referred me to an infectious disease specialist, out of their network, who followed up with Mayo and after waiting for the sputum to grow the bacteria large enough to test came up with the mycobacterium result. This took about 6 weeks.
He said it is rare in men, especially at my age (49) and that it is more often found in older women and in the southern US where the air is humid. I am from Northern MN. Apparently birds are the ones that carry this bacteria and somehow, it ended up in the upper part of my right lung.
He said because of the rareness of the bacteria, the only treatment available is the way they treat TB. He said with my weight, I would be looking at 7 different types of antibiotics per day for 1 1/2 years. The side effects are great too, he said along with messing with your digestive system, I would have to get my liver checked once a month as some of these drugs can hurt your liver and can also cause blindness. He also noted they were not cheap and as you can guess from the clinic doctors above showing me the door, I have no health insurance.
I am not a fan of any kind of drugs in my body. I have always believed that my body could take care of just about anything and do not typically ever go to the doctor. Before this all started at the end of 2018, I had not been to the doctor in over 25 years, but the pain in my joints, shortness of breath, chest pain, back pain, loss of 15 lbs., and no apatite, caused me to go to the minute clinic who sent me directly to the doctors office. I wasn’t me, so I was elated to find out from the doc on my very first visit that it was pneumonia and that is was easily treatable. I paid my bill in full, grabbed my meds from the pharmacy and thought that was easy! Much to my surprise, 6 months later, I am looking for some help from people that think more like me,
I am very new to homeopathic medicine, but have a huge belief in it, and with seeing what pharmaceutical medications did to my mother before she passed and what effects they have on my father currently, I am not a fan.
I sure could use some help in learning how to rid myself of this bacteria in a more natural way. Any comments are appreciated! God Bless!

I have tried seemingly everything for the past -almost year. I had a series of expensive Rife machine treatments for which I traveled for in another state, high dosages of vit C (I believe Vit C is very good and helped me with some unrelated things), olive leaf extract, high doses of good quality colloidal silver, fasting for long periods of time, vitamin c/salt/mud baths, infrared saunas, etc. I got blood work done after doing this a long while and found no change in mycoplasma levels but a slight drop in eb virus levels. I decided to try Myco (a blend of South American herbs) and after about a month I got retested and have tested negative for mycoplasma. (I still have epstein barr virus, so I am still on the search for a cure for that.) I share this in case this helps anyone else. We are all different, but for what it is worth, it worked for me extremely well. (just one bottle did it)

To the scientific mindset one microorganism causes one disease. Now meet a microorganism which does not play by the rules, meet Mr. Mike O. Plasma aka Mycoplasma. He is a sneaky little guy.
Imagine a pleomorphic bug that hides from the immune system, that can change its surface texture to mimic normal human cellular tissue. A bug that can invade any type of tissue anywhere in the body and trick the immune system into attacking its own body tissues. a bug that can go dormant for many years then come out to play years later. A bug that causes such a wide range of bizzare symptoms it seems to affect everyone differently. One person may have fibromyalgia another may have chronic fatigue. While someone else may have diabetes, kidney disease, als, lupus, multiple sclerosis or highly aggressive cancers not to mention dozens of other so called "autoimmune diseases". Well that is Mr Mike o. plasma's signature, a baffling disease with a wild variety of seeming unrelated symptoms.

I have yet been able to completely kill it off because of its ability to reproduce. One needs to stay ahead of the cycle. One of the technologies that has really helped me and kept me from dying of this disease is a Rife machine. It is based on the technology of the electron microscope that Royal Raymond Rife created in the early 20th century. Mike in Kalamazoo has done an amazing job at researching and trying to perfect and create new equipment to help people heal. the website is truerife.com. It looks sci fi and I guess the machinery is....but it works.
I was on a pick line for a year and on an old cholesterol medication after that, but the Rife machine has helped the most. I am seeing an infectious disease physician and she is picking the brain of one of the creators of diseases like this. I will post any help that I can. If there is nothing else to do with this it is to help people get better.
Thank you to everyone for their contributions.

About 4 years ago I was cutting grass and afterwards, I had this incrediable biting, itching, crawling, stinginging sesations on both of my forearms. ( no where else on my body did I have this ) I started out with medical doctors, that gave me creams to rub on my arms. Well the rash always came back and the doctor had told me she believed it to be a fungus or possible sand fleas. She wanted me to take stuff internaly like lamiseal,which can cause liver damage and the fact that she did not no what I even had on me.
So I made a decision to start researching natural cures and causes. I came to the conclusion that it must have been some kind of parasite or mites. After doing severeal suggestions here on earthclinic, mainly using borax interally and externally, the rash DID go away. However, every since then I get these pimple like bumps, that seem to appear in the same spots. I can pop them just as you would a pimple and they seem to go away, only to return later.
My condition, seems to be about 90% better. NO MORE rashes or red streaking on my arms, but sometimes itchy pimples.So I am thinking maybe I have mycoplasma or nano- bacteria left behind.
Ted tells of some stuff for these mycoplasma, but I am not totaly clear on the amounts to be taken. When he says, small amounts of H202 and Disoidium EDTA every hour for 12 hours. What would be consider small amounts??? He also mentions nicimade and at the end says B-3. Are these one in the same, because when I checked with the vitiman company nicimade was compleatly different product than was B-3. B-3 seemed to cause flushing where as niciamade did not. Which one would be correct or could you use either or? Also clove oil in one cup of water is this just once a day? One more question, anyone know how to make the Zinc chloride tooth paste?
I have looked high and low here on EC, and have not been able to find out. I do know that, it is possible for me to have over looked or not found certain information, that Ted may have already posted.
I love this site, Ted, Joyce, Deirdre and all the people who contribute to it. I do believe, THAT ALL of us should start PRINTING out the info on this site though. We never know when the goverenment or pharmacutical companies will attack us and take it all away!
