My 2nd Bionic 880 Treatment

I had my 2nd Bionic 880 treatment today.  This time, I increased the power level all the way to 100%, since I really wasn't sure if the bad day that I had after my first treatment was really due to the treatment itself.  As I said previously, I'd rather feel really crappy but knowing that the treatment is doing its job, than to wonder if I'm really on the right path.  

I did not feel anything out of the ordinary during the treatment today, despite the power level at 100%.  After the treatment, I was once again quite fatigued, but again I'm not sure if it's really due to the treatment itself.  After all, we lost one hour of sleep due to the change to daylight saving time.  

According to Lady X, I should be able to feel some effects from the treatment later this evening as well as tomorrow, so I'll brace myself and report if I get the sickening effects that I have been longing for (non-lymies might think I'm crazy).  Lady X is quite concerned that I might be getting hit too hard, as I am not getting the benefits of ozone and mineral IVs that Dr. Woitzel's patients usually have.  I guess I have yet to develop a true respect for the Bionic 880 machine since I haven't tasted its true power yet.  I hope this would change soon!  But then again, I could already hear many out there saying:  Be careful what you wish for!

First Day after the First Treatment

Last night, I felt a bit of soreness in my arms and legs, which are unusual for me. It is not quite the common muscle sore, but rather the deeper type that feels a bit achy as well.  It is similar to the type of soreness one gets during a fever.  Perhaps this is a good sign that my immune system is responding to the Bionic treatment that I received, despite the low power.  

At this point however, I don't want to read too much into it and attribute everything to the Bionic until I'm absolutely sure.  

I took a hot epsom salt bath and went to bed afterwards. The soreness is gone this morning, but my brain fog is at "medium-heavy" upon getting up.  It is not out of the ordinary, but definitely worse than what I have been getting in the past week or so.  Again, I don't know if it could be attributed to the Bionic.

I should step up the power level of the Bionic in my next treatment.  I much rather feel really crappy but knowing that it is induced by the Bionic treatment, than guessing and thinking that the Bionic might not work and that it might just be another bad day.  Not knowing whether a treatment is working is one of the worse stresses that we face with this dreaded disease, so knowing it would keep my spirits up despite the physical agony involved.

My First Bionic 880 Treatment

I had my first treatment with the Bionic 880 this afternoon. I was very grateful to be greeted with the warm hospitality of the lady who is allowing me to use her Bionic 880 machine. For her privacy, I will keep her anonymous for now and refer to her as "Lady X" hereafter.

When I arrived at Lady X's place, I finally had the honour of meeting her in person, as well as her husband. The Bionic 880 machine was already set up for me at the 25% of full power setting as recommended by another member on LymeNet. Normally, Dr. W would start his patients at 100% full power, but I was advised by the LymeNet member to start with 25% because that's the guideline Dr. W provided when one doesn't have the benefits of ozone and mineral IVs to support and detox the body after the Bionic treatment.

I transferred the contents of my Deseret Biologicals ("Desbio") Borrelia series nosodes from their original brown glass vials into clear sterile ones that I got from my LLMD, using a separate sterile syringe for each of the 10 bottles. That process took a while, but I was advised by Lady X that it is necessary because the treatment might not work as well when using the brown glass vials.

When all is ready, I taped all 10 vials to my solar plexus; essentially just below my sternum with all 10 vials going from left to right. The vials are larger (wider) in size than the ones that Lady X obtained and used in Germany, so it literally looked like a belt going just below my chest. It is not the ideal setup, but that's the best I could do, so I proceeded with it.

I applied the wand of the Bionic 880 on each of the 10 meridian points specific to this treatment as pioneered by Dr. W, for about 5 minutes each. I did not notice any sensation worthy of noting during the treatment, although as I mentioned in my previous post, I felt more sick than usual today even before I went to Lady X's place for the treatment. I continued my conversation with Lady X throughout the treatment, sharing some of our experiences in treating and dealing with our debilitating disease.

After the treatment, on my way home and for the next few hours, I felt very exhausted. I'm not sure if the exhaustion is caused by the treatment itself, or whether it was due to the expenditure of energy as I focused and conversed with Lady X for the 2 hours or so I spent at her place. As well, as I started out my day with more brain fog and tireness than usual, maybe my exhaustion has nothing to do with the Bionic treatment after all.

I will pay attention to the way I feel over the next 2 or 3 days and report anything worthy of noting. At 25% of full power, however, I wouldn't be surprised if I don't feel anything out of the ordinary from the treatment I had today.

On another note, I am thinking of ordering the Allergie-Immun ("AI") treatment as recommended by many on LymeNet. Lady X has already ordered it and has sent in her first saliva sample for analysis. AI appears to be a very promising modality to complement the Bionic 880, and it could very well be a significant piece of the puzzle that will get me back to full health.

Excited -- Going for my first Bionic 880 treatment soon!

I have checked with some fellow lymies under previous care of Dr. W in Germany and I am now convinced that using the nosodes from Deseret Biologicals will not give me the infections that I currently don't have (namely, Babesia and Erlichia). Logic does apply, after all.

As such, I'm going to head to my first Bionic 880 treatment this afternoon -- in less than 2 hours, in fact! To tell you I am not excited would be a lie; this is by far the most promising treatment that I have come across over the past 6+ years of suffering. It could literally be the light at the end of the tunnel!

I am not feeling too well today though, at least compared to the last few days. My brain fog is quite heavy and I'm actually getting some headache all over my head, which is not common for me. I have a hunch that it is my immune system going after the Lyme (thus resulting in a mild herx), since I have been boosting my liver's ability to detox yesterday with the liver flush. I don't know if this makes sense, but my lymie brain is too foggy to explain now.

I will report on my first treatment this evening after I come back. Hopefully I could still type by that time.

Baseline Test In Preparation for the Bionic Treatment

Today, I have finished the liver cleanse procedure in the morning which started yesterday.  There were plenty of green liver stones flushed from my body, and it was good to know that my liver is now going to function without their obstruction.

I visited my LLMD's clinic in the afternoon to receive a baseline test of where I stand before starting the Bionic 880 treatment.  Not only was I tested energetically on the Vega machine, but I had a couple of tubes of blood drawn as well.  I couldn't recalled all the tests that will be done on my blood, but CD-57 is one of them.

Energetically, I had an organ screen on the Vega machine, which screens my organ functions to check where and what infections are present.  I am glad to report that I once again tested negative for Babesia, which was present in my brain when I had the same test about 1.5 year ago.  I can't say for sure that the Babesia is completely gone, but at least energetically it is not showing us, which could mean it is either gone or is in a dormant state.  I tend to believe that it is gone, and that it is the result of the bottle of MMS which I consumed over the course of last year; and if that is the case, then it would be proof that MMS indeed crosses the BBB (blood-brain barrier) as rightfully claimed by its inventor Jim Humble.  Too bad it didn't touch the Lyme (Borrelia) at all though.

Other than the Babesia, the organ screen revealed that not much has changed since I took the same screen about 1.5 year earlier, although the lady who performed the screen for me commented that the Mycoplasma is not showing up as strongly as before.  I'm not sure exactly what that means; it could mean its load in my body has reduced compared to before, or that it is snoozing (in a half-dormant state).  In any case, I took it as a good sign.  In summary, the Lyme bacteria (Borrelia) and Mycoplasma are found in the following organs / systems in my body:

  • Brain
  • Thymus
  • Liver
  • Lympathic system

As you could see, the Lyme bacteria is so intelligent that it is able to put a stranglehold on my immune system (thymus) while degrading my detox pathways (liver and lymphatic) to ensure its survival.  And of course, the Lyme bacteria loves soft fatty tissues so it is literally having a party in my brain while the other three systems are compromised.  

In terms of the nosodes from Deseret Biologicals that I brought for energetic testing on the Vega machine, they didn't test very well for me.  None of the Borrelia series remedy nosodes was found to be compatible with my body, and only D15 and D12 from the Mycoplasma series remedy were found to be compatible.  That's not quite what I expected.  Frankly, I don't know what that means for me.

The lady who did the test for me did notice that the Borrelia nosodes actually contain the energies for Borrelia, Babesia, and Erlichia.  And because of that, she said the test is actually meaningless since we don't know which of the 3 my body doesn't like.  As I don't have Babesia and Erlichia, maybe the Vega machine is just saying that I don't need the nosodes because they treat all 3, while I just need 1 of the 3.  

She also warned me about using the nosodes with the Bionic 880 treatment, which I told her about earlier.  The concern is that, since I don't have Babesia and Erlichia, using the nosodes might actually induce those 2 infections on me (due to homeopathic principles of like-treats-like).

That is indeed a scary thought, as I certainly don't want to catch Babesia and Erlichia even if my Borrelia is cured.  It is hard for me to understand how I might acquire those 2 infections from 2 bottles of nosodes that are so diluted and are merely placed outside my body, but I don't want to take any chances given the power of the Bionic 880 that many attest to.  

Having said that, the Mycoplasma series remedy also contains many different strains of Mycoplasma.  It is certainly not reasonable to expect the person using those nosodes to be infected with every strain of it, so does that mean the person would be infected with all those strains that he doesn't have, while getting treated for the one(s) he does?  Logic has taken a hike here.  However, out of caution, I have consulted with the lady who will offered me to use her Bionic 880 machine, and she has promised to check with the others who have gone to Germany for the treatment.  Perhaps one of them would have the answer.

Until I get a clear answer on this uncertainty, I am holding back my first Bionic 880 treatment.  If I could have the answer in time, I will begin my first Bionic treatment tomorrow afternoon.
