Hello, I am taking doxy, zith, and Mepron. My knee swells for about six days then goes down for six days. You could almost set a watch to it. I know is is the classic Lyme symptom but was wondering if the swelling could be from some type of parasite .
I use to travel to many developing countries and have been wondering if there is some connection between parasites and joint swelling?
Anyone have joint swelling that went down by treating parasites? Thanks Brian

There are parasites right here in the US, too...
It's not a bad idea to treat for them. I don't know if there is a connection in your case with the joint swelling - but to my mind, it's never a bad idea to do some anti-parasite protocols.

Agree with sparkle! Ticks can carry parasites and often do. They can disseminate and go into the the joints. Google parasite symptoms.
