I am researching a zapper to use for all this myself. These bugs are very clever in that when one is taken care of others really grow. Plus, co-infections are the name of the game.
I tried for several years to avoid any sort of med by doing diet and supplements, although those each have an important part in it. I have had RA for 8 years and have been on abx for 2.5. I wish I had taken them in the early years, I would be hiking and biking now.
