What do you all think is the percentage of people that recover? And what do you think is the average duration of treatment? This is a very general question and I know there are a lot of variables but just looking for some ranges.
Hope we all recover soon!

Most people are getting better and a few even gets cured.

If it's caught right away, I'd say it's about 85%....among us chronic folks, I don't know. I think most of us will get our lives back. Mine is pretty much "back!"

At the Hope to Heal Lyme conference in Reston, Va last week-end, Dr. Burrascano said the average period of treatment for patients in his practice is 3 years. He noted, however, that he tends to see the sickest of the sick.
