Hi everyone ~ I have gotten a slew of blood tests back from the LLMD and 1 of the test they did was a Fibrinogen level and mine is high... I guess it is associated with Lyme Disease ..it has to do with the coagulation of your blood or the thickness of the blood ... I was wondering if anyone here has had this test done and what they did to help the level go down .. My LLMD told me to drink 1/4tsp Sea salt 2x a day ?????????????????? Thanks for any info on this !!!!

I also had elevated fibrinogen. I used to smoke...my doctor told me to stop smoking and I did it. One of my friends told me to consume two cups of green tea daily. Apart from prescribed drugs, I used to take Vit C too. And it worked! You can also try. By the way, where did you get your test done? I got it done from teddycan and got good discount.

Hi Kimberleytin - welcome to our community!

Since you are new here...I'd like to point out the thread at the top of the page titled: "New To Lyme?...Start Here!" It's full of great information - symptom lists, info on probiotics, detoxing suggestions..and more.

I hope you find this to be a supportive place - with knowledgeable people - and keep coming back to read, post, ask questions.
