    • Close Lyme Disease

      IN 1996, when I was totally clueless about Lyme D., I was raking in my back yard, where lots of animals roamed, including, deer, and I got bit by a tick too small to even see. In 3 days, having seen the Bull's Eye Rash, but not recognizing it, I developed classic symptoms of the "flu". Went to Dr., but saw the Nurse Practitioner who gave me too mild an antibiotic. 13 years ago. My life changed drastically. I don't know any others with that disease and look forward to learning from you all.

      Treatments

      Doxycycline Somewhat Helpful
      I developed Primary Secondary and Tertiary Lyme D.after being bitten by deer tick in my own back yard. My doctor knew little about Lyme. A friend found info on INternet. Dr contacted CDC tried every recommended Tx.Painful episodes and impaired mobility ensued.Unable to work past several years. Try to focus on the good happening along the way. I use natural supplements like MSMfor pain. Other meds didnt work. Mobility greatly impaired. Every day I think I am getting a bit better.
