My name is Kim and I have a 1.5 year old Bearded Dragon (lizard). Since October 11, 2021 he has been sick. He has been to 3 veterinarians for exotic and they are unable to diagnose his problem. Prior he was healthy. Diet super worms (now I know they are very fatty) and mustard greens. He gave up on crickets and roaches in July
Symptoms:
1) Paralysis or weakness in front and rear legs. Sometimes he can walk, walk slowly with limping or unable to walk at all. This is still going on today..
2) He did have a eating problem when he got sick, but now it's getting better. Original Weight 647 grams now 635 grams.
He has had X-rays (Drs said X-rays were fine no MBD or fractures), no impaction, couple blood panels done (will post results) and waiting for Adenovirus results to come back in a week or so.
Original visit showed high red and white blood count and other things posted. (Possibly Sepsis, parasites)
Latest Dr. opinion:
Last Monday's visit dr said blood work showed a little elevated WBC and continued antibiotic.
Protocol:
1) Just finished 3rd round of antibiotics.
2) taking daily Metacam non steroid anti inflammatory.
3) taking (2x) milk thistle for liver detox.
4) diet changes daily but consists of mustard greens, carnivore care, baby food organic butternut squash, pumpkin and sparingly dubia roaches.
My friend told me about MMS and to post my situation. Any advice would be helpful!
Thank you

Published on: October 4, 2026
A conversation with Jim in 2010: D: Some doctors have told me that harmful pathogens have the ability to manipulate the brain chemistry to make you crave the things they want to eat. Since I have been on MMS/CD, I have lost all cravings. I have also lost 60 pounds (which I needed to lose), …

MMS/CD and Antioxidants
Published on: September 14, 2026
Some folks get confused and a bit hung up on the issue of MMS/CD and antioxidants. While it is true, we have said and many others emphasize, you cannot take MMS/CD with antioxidants. Fair enough, it stands to reason that taking antioxidants with an oxidizer is not the best thing to do. BUT, you have …

From a discussion with Jim on why MMS/CD doesn’t seem to be working: Jim: If it’s not working, do something different. But this can be tricky, you have to give each thing enough time to work, don’t be rash, but don’t stay stuck either, this is where listening to your body comes in and the …
