Update on Mountain Man

I've been waiting to update because I really wanted something
to tell you. 10 days ago the doctor tested Levi for Lyme's Disease.
There are 10 bands that they screen for and he only had one that
was active so technically he does not have Lyme's.
But because MM had an infectious tick bite 14 months ago and numerous
bites before and after that his doctor is not going solely on the test results.
He does have a virus and between that and the tick bite could be the
explanation for the long symptom list that MM has.
His doctor does some homeopathic treatments as well as traditional.
Tomorrow he will start taking hydrogen peroxide intravenously and will
do so for at least 4-5 days. That should make a huge improvement in how
he is feeling. We know someone that has had this treatment and it did
amazing things for him. We have hope of good results.
Concerning the diaphragm spasms the doctor is using a treatment
called the Kaufman technique. Over the weekend MM had multiple spasms
and was not functioning well at all. He went for treatment today feeling
an 8 on a scale of 1-10. While the doctor was treating him he felt 50% better.
Before we left he said the pain was down 80-90%.
We are encouraged.
At this point we will proceed with these treatments and pray
for healing.

I am glad that you are narrowing the possibilities of this and making it all the less mysterious. It sounds as if you have good advice and counsel of how to go about treating this.
I'll keep praying for him,
Antoinette
