May Be the Bart After All
Much less anxiety, fear and general restlessness. It may have been Bartonella all along. Since I began Levaquin, I sleep at night without any assistance (Benadryl with Melatonin). The revved up feeling at night has diminished.

I Cup You Now
Ming, my Tuina practitioner, has begun using Chinese cupping on me. It can be used to generally strengthen the immune system and eliminate toxins.
I find it beneficial and enjoy it at the end of the Tuina session.
It turns out that my great grandmother usied to cup in Calabria, Italy some 65 years ago, putting the cups in boiling water. WOW.
I feel clamer these days, participating in life rather than participating in illness...i.e., managing its symptoms.

Harvesting the Honey - Spiritual Healing
In the past 3 nights, my neighbor and I harvested 80 lbs. of honey off of two supers (16 frames of waxed honey).
What an awakening to think of bees rather than timing the meds and herbs.
PICC Line Healing
Not bad after 9.5 months of a PICC line. Nothing that some shea, cocoa butter and beeswax cannot heal.

Filariasis, Giardia and Bartonella - Oh My
LLMD prescribed one dose of Stromectol for the Filariasis and Levaquin for the Bartonella. According to my laser MD, the Giardia and Bartonella have been knocked after a couple sessions. More work on the Filariasis.
