Great ideas on organizing,thx! I'm on probiotics now but have not added any herbs to my tx mainly bc I have no idea what I'm doing and I'm afraid I'll mess something up. Maybe I should check out the...
Thanks, shuttergy! I will!...
Thx everyone! What are skeets? I guess I can google it. So maybe I should keep the appt after all, hmm. I am taking milk thistle and a specific probiotic that protects the gut from c diff and other...
I had a follow up visit with my pcp today and explained to her that while most of my symptoms have resolved my memory loss is still present. I asked if she thought I needed to be on a longer course...
Thank you both! SN was who I was considering. I actually just had a great appt with my pcp, and she is going to give me more abx!...
Expanding my search to New England as I didn't get much response to my Boston inquiry. Any suggestions? I found one doing just a Google search. She is a nurse practitioner who formerly worked with dr...
Happy to do it, Kim. So far, no leads though - other than the names from ILADS, which I'm happy to pass along if you'd like....
Bellyful, there is a radio lab podcast called gut feeling which talks about probiotics and gut bacteria. Not directly relevant to Lyme but thought I'd mention it. It's something I've become...
Can someone tell me more about this Buhner person? I think I need to consider reading his book. Title please? And what is the herb that helps prevent Lyme mentioned by heartx? I could really use...
Thx Margaret, and Girlie for bumping....
Hi all, I've decided to get a second opinion on tx of my Lyme dz from an LLMD. I am in the metrowest Boston area. Any recommendations? I received three names from ILADS, a dr. R in Waltham (who has a...
Thx, Revive, that helps. I don't think my dr will give me more because she told me that she usually just gives twelve days and that the 21 days that the ER dr prescribes is "overkill" so it looks...
Thx, Girlie! Yes, I've read the link and it was very helpful. One question that keeps lingering in my mind is whether this info applies to anyone diagnosed with Lyme or just people with chronic Lyme...
Hi Bellyful, I got three names from ILADS but I want to seek recommendations here, too, so I will post asking for some recos soon. So much info to digest!...
Thanks so much to everyone who responded. I really appreciate the time you took to hell me make this decision. I am going to watch the documentary and will read the thread posted here thus weekend. I...
Hi all, I shared my story in another thread but to summarize - I was diagnosed with Lyme after 5 days of aches, fever and chills and a bulls eye rash which developed the 4th day. Before that I...
Sorry for the odd typos above. Gotta love autocorrect!...
Thank you so much, bellyful and heartx! I appreciate all the info. Wow, this is so overwhelming. Bellyful, you said this can recur when one is stressed, I guess that is where I am. Confused. Am I...
Hi everyone, thank you for the helpful replies. So much information to absorb. Girlie, I am near Boston. My dosage is 100 mg bid of doxy. I'm worried that isn't enough now! I'm considering going to a...
Hi everyone! I've recently (last week) been diagnosed with Lyme and I have some questions. Background info: 3-4 weeks ago started noticing memory loss/brain fog which was pretty severe with no other...
