Was treated for LD back in 2009-10 by a few quacky llmds without significant improvement.
After getting over a year of abx use, herbs + supplements + diet + lifestyle changes + time helped more than anything, but I have been stuck in a chronic fatigue syndrome zone with regularly occurring severe tonsillitis.
Honestly haven't been sure if what I'm dealing with is chronic LD, viral or some other bug [common uncertainty I've encountered here].
Well my doctor called me yesterday, saying my recent CBC test results were quote unquote horrible and that I needed to go directly to the ER. WBC [white blood cells] were at 22 when they should be <10.
ER docs couldn't find anything wrong, no tonsillar abscess as thought by my primary care. Ran several tests, including Lyme antigen, all negative [as usual].
WHY can they not find the bug causing these intense immune responses? Are they going to send me to an oncologist again like they did 8 years ago when my WBC were also elevated, just to run more tests and say: not cancer but cannot explain what's causing it. ?

It's very typical for us to "pass" tests and still be ill. This happened to me all the time, and I knew something wasn't right!

Why not go back to one of the "few quacky LLMD" you saw since no one else seems to know?
