Thanks for your kind words!
In brief,...Hi Anne, <br /><br />Thanks for your kind words! <br /><br />In brief, muscle testing is based on the premise that the body knows what it needs, and that via muscle responses can communicate that information. It is based on physiology, not any bizarre spiritual practice, but you must have someone who is good at it, as it's easy to make mistakes. My doctor is pretty accurate, I think. His website is: www.soundclinic.com. Yes, I am doing much better, my Lyme infections are in remission (they went into remission the day before I published a book on supernatural healing: www.healingchronicillness.org. A miracle? I think so! God is still healing me in other areas, though I am much better.<br /><br />Praying God's healing blessings upon you from Lyme! He is our great physician and I believe will guide you into all truth. <br /><br />Blessings, ConnieConnie Strasheimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16717029511098232885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72382737862000947.post-49988985024607553522011-08-29T19:29:57.913-06:002011-08-29T19:29:57.913-06:00Hi Connie!
I loved your book (Insights into Lyme...Hi Connie!<br /><br /> I loved your book (Insights into Lyme Disease Treatment). My naturopath is in it! I'm not sure if you still read comments on old posts but I'll take a whack at it :-)<br /><br />I've been recently diagnosed with Lyme, Bartonella and Babesia. I have a best friend who is very much into muscle testing and bio-energetics but to be honest, that is all a little out there for me but I am very intrigued by your account of your doctor in Denver who muscle tests you. I really just don't understand how it could possibly work. Can you explain?<br /><br />Right now I am starting with herbs and moving into antibiotics. Doxycyline, Rifampin, and then Tinidizole and possibly Mepron (most likely at some point). <br /><br />I think I have read that you are better now but still have left-over issues from the Lyme. Have you ever read Natalie Nichol's website (Shades of Grace)? It is amazing. Before I knew I had Lyme, I was going to go do the live cell therapy she speaks of but now will do antibiotics first and then live cell if I need it after I am done doing antibiotics. She was on immuno-suppressents for years that damaged her system but has made great recovery with live cell. <br /><br />Anyways, I am a fellow believer as well (my husband and I were youth and senior pastors for a time but now I stay at home and rest and take care of my four beautiful children and he is in business). <br /><br />All the best!<br />AnneLMLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16067259609139153148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72382737862000947.post-79050392612021842072010-04-03T08:21:45.775-06:002010-04-03T08:21:45.775-06:00Hi Connie. Hope you're still out there. Have...Hi Connie. Hope you're still out there. Haven't seen anything from you in a long time, and was wondering how your abx treatments were going. I especially want your personal opinion on Flagyl, as I'm sure you've "graduated" to that by now. I'm finishing up my <br />6th 2-week pulse and have one more to go before being reevaluated. Have you seen improvement? I think I have. The question is, how do you know when to stop? My LLMD wants me "symptom-free", but I don't think that will ever happen (permanent damage). But I could go on at this level forever and be fine. Part of me wants to settle so badly, but I would have a hard time going against my doctor's advice, and stop meds on my own. Where are you at this point? Have you been writing like mad and haven't had time to post. I wonder, and hope!

I too believe God wants the best for us ...Hi Connie<br />I too believe God wants the best for us and uses our struggles to bring us closer to Him ~ giving glory to God!<br />I too have come to the conclusion that Lyme will never be completely gone from my body. I will settle for getting alot better and having the upper hand on this smart bacteria. I am on Zith, Mepron, and now Cumanda too. I have claimed this year as a year of healing for myself and my husband Joel too. I ended 2009 with a endometrial biopsy and pelvic ultrasound that show no cancer but a thickening of the uterus...the meds I am on have suppressed my estrogen from being distributed I guess...will know more later. So hormone treatment will be the first step towards healing in 2010~Leaning on God for each step is at the top of my list. Letting go of fear, living in the moment, and above all trusting God for His plan for my life.<br />I always am encouraged by your writings. I look forward to hearing how your new protocol works for you. The muscle testing is a great tool, isn't it. <br />God bless you Connie..and happy healing for 2010!Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07089685282700680525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72382737862000947.post-13971512135703935352010-01-03T19:08:48.217-07:002010-01-03T19:08:48.217-07:00Connie, I am so encouraged by your recent blog pos...Connie, I am so encouraged by your recent blog posts. I am being led in the same direction by the Lord concerning my Lyme symptoms and it is such a sweet confirmation to my heart to hear you say that He doesn't want us sick!!! That is so true! God is so good! <br /><br />Recently, I have felt a new, unquenchable, rising hope that the Lord is making a way where there was no way. I believe that the hard ground that has been unbreakable for so long is breaking open and life giving springs of water are bursting forth. Nothing can stop what the Lord is doing and we can't even begin to imagine what He has in store for us this new year and beyond. He is doing a new thing. It is a time for the miraculous like never before! <br /><br />Be blessed, I am so excited about what the Lord is doing and I look forward to staying in touch with what He continues to do in and through you. Learning about what God is showing you is so encouraging and gives me so much hope, thank-you for sharing. <br />SommerSommer Nielsennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72382737862000947.post-46462888272547338812010-01-03T15:56:01.193-07:002010-01-03T15:56:01.193-07:00Hello NNL! :)

I am so glad that my blog "resonates" with you!<br /><br />How wonderful that you have witnessed God's miraculous hand upon you time and time again! I can imagine how confounding it must be at times, to wonder why sometimes He heals right away, and at other times, He delays. <br /><br />Yet, as you, I believe that ultimately He wants us to be well!<br /><br />He is showing me many things these days which I will share at some point, either here or in a new book!<br /><br /> Thank you for sharing your journey, please continue to share with me and others what God does in your life. It is interesting to read of your healing journey!<br /><br />Blessings,<br /><br />ConnieConnie Strasheimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16717029511098232885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72382737862000947.post-36783352317265533942010-01-02T05:30:41.528-07:002010-01-02T05:30:41.528-07:00This is the first time I am commenting. I am so g...This is the first time I am commenting. I am so glad that I found your blog. The name I have is actually from another blog and is a long story why I chose it . . . not relevant here.<br /><br />I must say that I have found reading your blogs to be as if you were reading my own mail, yet I don't have Lyme disease. However, the last 4 years of my life have been taken up with fighting a whole myriad of things: mercury toxicity, candidiasis, parisites, EBV, cytomegalovirus, etc. etc. etc. with no hope that it might ever change.<br /><br />I know that our God is a God of healing. I have had many dramatic healings in my life. So when this took me down and there was no dramatic healing, I was stunned and flabbergasted and then have gone through every emotion possible in the past several years. What I do know is that something like this does cause one to have to burrow in deeper with God in the midst of the agony. There are times that I wouldn't trade for the world the pure gold that has been forged on the inside of me by God through all of this. But, of course, I like you, believe that God wants us well. I am slowly climbing out of the pit physically. There have been some healings along the way where the hand of God was evident and I got little miracles, but I have had to go the long route as well with Him intervening at times and me having to stay the course with my remedies all the while - which consumed most of my time and energy and pocketbook! BUT He is faithful. And I know that I will not remain this way forever, just as I believe that you won't. I look forward to hearing more of what you will have to say about what God is showing you and perhaps I will share more of what He has done with me in and through this and what He is continuing to do. We have an amazing God even though we don't always understand things - especially having to live in a fallen world where there is sin, sickness and disease. I hate the devil . . . But - and this is a big BUT! God has overcome the devil and we have access to an all-powerful and wonderful God in the midst of the tragedies of our lives.<br /><br />God bless you, and thank you for this blog and all that you've done to help those with Lyme disease and even those who don't have it (like me) who are suffering with similar situations.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04146169503042368869noreply@blogger.com
