That is so true, I had been in denial that I could get Lyme for 2 weeks, until the symptoms were so strange I couldn't brush it off. As if I would have thought it into existence. And yes, the worst...
It's next to impossible to even find any doctor who has actually treated Lyme, and I had to hunt down a professor who wrote about LD to got referred to this one. So I don't see I can find one more...
I saw the infectious disease doctor today and got my test result. And I only realized when I saw the report today that the doc actually sent my blood to mayo... :cry: And the serology test is...
A photo of them : http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg580/Alison888/DSC_0842_zpsyq3lexfk.jpg Girlie, do you mean the rifampin additional to my current doxy, or after doxy is finished? And does that...
I can't believe I'm posting again... Recap: I got bitten end of last month, symptoms of Lyme including EM rash started around a week after. Started Doxy since last week... And tonight when I...
Thanks traveler, and Kev I sent you an email already....
Hi Alison, just back, do you mind sending me a private message regarding the Infectious Disease Specialist that you saw? Many thanks![/quote] I actually wanted to do that before you wrote, but I...
The infectious disease specialist I saw today had actually treated some Lyme disease patients! And he seems to be a nice and reasonable man. Firstly he agreed that 2 weeks of doxy is not enough and...
I have contacted the first GP that prescribed me the Doxycycline, and he was very reluctant to extend my course of antibiotics even after I showed him the ILADS treatment guidelines. His reason was...
Thanks traveler, Along the way when I was reading all these, I was thinking to find a TCM doctor here at a hospital too. As in fact the only time I have taken drugs in these 5 years, was for malaria...
Thanks Girlie, yes, then I know what is Japanese knotweed then. And it is readily available in just any local herbalist shop, in fact it can be used on it own by boiling water for some usual...
http://www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=30&m=3602246&g=3865764#m3865764 This is the post I read, but I read it again and if I'm correct, this herbal protocol might be a personalised one...
Thanks. I guess I'm just still in denial and still freaking out. Also I am still trying to figure if there's anyway I can know if I have Bart or barb, and if so what can I do with them. I'll talk to...
Yes, I actually prefer herbal stuff, even though I don't know how much of those stuff I can find here. I saw someone wrote here that used a kind of Chinese herbal granulated protocol. I have seen...
It's a bit difficult to travel right now... I think I can try with local small pharmacies, hopefully there could be chance they would do. But I don't know if doxy is enough anymore. This afternoon I...
Thanks bluelyme. I checked a bit, babesia seems to feature fever or feeling of hotness - which I never have. More I feel fatigue... so I don't know if I might have bart too. I don't know what I...
Thanks Jinna, I just read your post too - and in fact I got bitten somewhat near the black forest, somewhere near Baden-Baden but I was up in the hill for 5 days. Sorry for the ignorance, this ART...
I got bitten in Germany, and the tick was still attached to me when I discovered. I went to a hospital to remove the mouthpart (as I removed it by hand mistakenly), and the doctor specifically...
Hi kev9412, Did you manage someone in hk who knows a bit more about Lyme or willing to provide a longer course of antibiotics? I am new here and I'm living in Hong Kong, and I just got diagnosed and...
Thanks all for your support and help. This morning I got up feeling still exhausted, and suddenly coughing a lot with sore throat, and still not able to get my brain works much... But so far not bad,...
Thanks both, it's the first time that someone actually understands what I'm talking about... I'll read into the info tomorrow, now I really can't focus... Going out to buy supplements feels really...
Hello everyone, Sorry for the lengthy post, as there is really no one who can tell me anything here not even doctors. I am very new here and in fact I didn't even know Lyme exists for very long. I...
