Not sure the protocol around bumping this up, I'm new to this stuff, but I must say that my heart goes out to strongmom and Lyme in MD -thank you both so much for sharing your stories. +Lyme Wowza!...
CajunGrl - You have every right to every feeling you have (and expressing them, of course) on this site and in other ways in your life. I know how nuts this had made me feel in such a short time I...
OK, first of all OMG The Great Lemon Water vs. Piss Debate, LOL, ROTF, WLWCOOMN (w/ lemon water coming out of my nose, obviously...) Thanks +Lyme and ria123 - and I drank some (lemon water, that is,...
Well, I completed 28 days of doxy, and I've seen the ID MD...(maybe this weekend I will post that humorous story!)... and... I'm just soooooo disappointed that I don't feel more improvement! Since I...
Mokeyho - The impression I have is that some people think Lyme bacteria growth slows down or dies off more quickly in an environment that has less easy "food" for it - like simple sugars and refined...
I'll share a victory and what I believe is a step in the right direction for my treatment. After everything I read on this site so far, plus carefully reading the ILADS report (and my own instincts...
I'm afraid I can't help much but offer to share the wait with you. I started on Doxy 100 mg 2x daily 6 weeks after exposure. I am on day 13 of 28 days and I am feeling mixed results - less headaches,...
You guys are the best. Thanks for the word on Doxy, too. I've read conflicting things about Doxy (shocking!) : ) like take it on an empty stomach for best absorption or with food (but no dairy...
I'm looking to hear people's experiences with doxy dosage for so-called "early detection" - not sure of the range of this, maybe 1 week - 6 months after exposure? I got my positive test 10 days ago,...
glad that passed CajunGrl - it's been my primary daily issue so I know how freaky it is. If it happens again, you can try gently massaging with arnica gel, or using a gel icepack, or alternating hot...
I thought I'd post my updates under this title and see what happens! If I end up with PLD or RLD because I couldn't get enough doxy soon enough, I can join the case studies. Don't get me wrong, it's...
Thank you CajunGrl, ttlittlestar, and Really Lyme for your quick and helpful responses. I am getting up the nerve up to call my Dr. and ask her about a higher or longer doasge of Doxy. Even the CDC's...
Hi, thanks for taking the time to read a new person's post. Most of this is a vent. I got my positive diagnosis last week and I have been on doxy- 100 mg 2x day - the "norm" I guess - for 6 days. I...
