Mommywolfe, I am glad that he has you for a friend. One of my first symptoms was chest pain. I found that Lyme affects the stomach as it does other organs. Something that works for me with chest pains is liquid Gaviscon. It is an antacid. If the problems are because of the stomach or esophagus, this will help a lot. In the beginning I went to the ER 3 times because of the chest pains, I thought I was having a heart attack. That's how bad they were.

The Gaviscon coats the esophagus and stomach as it goes down and provides relief in like a minute or so. Works very fast. If the problem is because of heartburn, it also resolves that as well. The magnesium in Gaviscon is also good for people with Lyme as many of us are magnesium deficient. Ask him to try it and see if it helps with his symptoms. Remember that it has to be liquid. They also sell it in pill form but they don't work that well.
