I have reason to believe, due to majority of my symptoms stemming from my head, that I have Lyme in my brain. What antibiotics or herbs or other supplements are useful in crossing the blood brain barrier to eradicate this? Please advise.

Allicin crosses the blood brain barrier. I was using Zhang's - but it was too costly.

Japanese Knotweed crosses the BBB and helps protect the brain.

Buhner states in his "Healing Lyme" 2nd edition, page 215, that for Neuroborreliosis (Lyme brain infection), "it is crucial to add to the core protocol:
Unicaria Rhynchophylla (cat's claw)"

Then you can go into the extended protocol section and read more on his recommendations for Neuroborreliosis.

minocycline crosses b/b barrier well.
But, in the beginning because of that, you can get some 'head' side effects - dizziness for an example.

I believe Rifampin can, as well.

Another antibiotic that crosses the blood brain barrier is Flagyl. Metronidazole is a generic substitute for Flagl.

I've never read any of his blogs before this one, and I found it so interesting I just kept reading on for awhile then book marked it.

His writing style is so easy to understand, very conversational.

I guess it also depends on the brain symptoms are that would also determine what may be needed.

Sometimes, I'll forget to add JK into my teas. I get the feeling that my body notices, even if I necessarily don't.

I don't know if you ever read dr mercola site but you may want to look at what he writes about root canals and cavitations and their toxic byproducts, I would suggest reading his article on this subject from May 31-2015.
I do think it something to consider with head issues
