Had Lyme Disease.
Took Flagyl Ceftin and Biaxin twice a day for almost three years. Did not cure until I ate cannabis brownies everyday for three months.
Had trouble getting antibiotics. Found an older sympathetic veterinarian who ended up supplying my needs. The hardest part is finding a doctor who knows what they are doing.
Search for LLMD (Lyme Literate Medical Doctors) Also find info at ILADS. They are legit. Avoid IDSA. They are definitely part of the Clown community.
Get a CD 57 test done as soon as possible. Do the test now and get a baseline. That way, future CD 57 tests can tell you how you are progressing. I did not know about this test when I had Lyme. As such,Herxheimer reactions were the only way I could tell if the meds were working.
Lyme free now for ten years.
Been hearing lately that HCQ and Ivermectin work, but no personal experience with these meds.
If in Canada, some naturopaths in some provinces are able to prescribe antibiotics. Flagyl is very important because it busts up the bacteria's protective coating.
Also, if taking antibiotics long term, diet is EXTREMELY important.
A careless diet with antibiotics can lead to systemic fungal infection that will only make life ten times worse.
No sugar, no starch, no liquor>> (especially with Flagyl contraindicated with alcohol)
Basically a veto diet on steroids.
I also made my own yogurt that must be eaten at least two hours separate from antibiotics. If not, then the antibiotics will go to town on the yogurt bacteria instead of the Lyme bacteria.
Excellent Documentary: Under Our Skin
Right now it feels overwhelming for you, but don't worry. You can beat it.
Over the years, I've given this same advice to several Lyme patients who are now Lyme free.
Best of luck
