I just read an article about a doc that found his patient that he used Klonopin on, it doesn't cure the lyme but helps with the symptoms. What's your thought. Before I knew what was wrong with me I used .5 mg to help cut the edge with my brain symptoms. Has anyone hear of this? Bugsy

Ya I hear you Lymetutu. I don't take it everyday cuz I know what withdrawls are like getting off of other anti-d. I take it when I really need to be able to funtion better to do things. I think once they get my adrenal funtioning better, I may feel a little like human. Do you know if they can tell how long you have a had it? I really can't think when I mgiht have been bit.

Lymetutu, I've always been a sick kid. In my 20 I was good, 30 hit and I felt something was off. Now 40, it's been hard. In 08 my gallblader pretty muched died and had to have an er surgery to have it removed. The same year I was diagnosed with EBV. Every year after that I would have a flare up in the fall or winter of what I thought was my EBV. Last year was the worsted, pneumonia in Jan, EBV in Feb, back surgery May, moved from NC to HI in Aug all the while I started to have more symptoms, dizzy, headaches that turned to migrains plus more. If I had to guess, I would say in 08, but dizzy spells started in maybe 2004 or 5. They were not bad, but enough to make me get checked out by docs. I use to think it was from my neck and old car accid.

I use Ativan and it has been a life saver. Bartonella can destroy the nerves and keep us up for days!! (I've gone 4 days no sleep - had to go to hospital they gavee IV Ativan and it saved me)
Also some Docs use it to control seizure herx from Bart/Lyme treatment.
Ativan is just like Klonopin. Both good for severe Bart cases IMO. Masks anxiety and OCD too.
