After going to the LLMD for the first time yesterday, I was bombarded with different diets, supplements, and treatments to try...

Anyone on pain free/nightshade diet?

Gluten-free diet?

Other? Vitamins, amino acids, etc.?

I'm on oral abx, which I know is the main treatment, but I'm feeling overwhelmed about everything else. I don't want to be grasping for straws, which I know a lot of Lyme treatment is...Any opinions on diets and supplements? Ones absolutely neccessary and some that you like, but may not work for everyone? My main symptoms are fatigue, muscle and joint aches...

While we're at it any opinion on IV abx vs. Oral abx?
