I can't see a specialist, dr. N in PA until october-november Should i ask my family doctor for amoxicillin or whatever in the mean time, and are there any ways that help how you feel besides supplements for energy, etc? Doesnt seem to help much.

I currently take something called energy for adrenal function, d ribose, l tyrosine. Multivitamin, l gluthione, have ginger, ashgwanda, and turmeric. Also, candida support and proenzyme supplements. Not sure if i have gastritis in regards to not taking proenzyme though (has hcl, probiotic blend, etc)

I'm just always really tired. Also feel bleh nauseous a lot. I read you should avoid carbs, sugar, and gluten but gluten is in like everything!

Also, anyone seen dr. N? I saw good reviews on him and he seems to be knowledgable of lyme, and was trained by an llmd.

Or should i go to a farther away doctor like dr. D which is 2 hours from me? Dr. N seems like the best bet and takes insurance.

Did you know you also have PA support groups? You can find them at the left and ask them. Also your free state online chat group is at http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/pennsylvanialyme - ask to be added.

With us, everything is an experiment. Magnesium supplements should help your muscles. We all took malic acid and magnesium together, in our fibro groups, which turned out to be Lyme. Some people are helped by flower pollen for energy.

Nausea can sometimes result from a neck subluxation hitting the vagus nerve. You never know till you try something as to whether that's impacting you. A good chiropractor could do that experiment with you, to see if it helps.

Here are a couple more resources for you (Support groups for PA):

www.lyme-aware.org/pennsylvania.html
www.lymepa.org

Another suggestion for you would be to call the doctor's office and ask if they have any cancellations or a waiting list. Patients have been able to get in sooner by doing this.
