My fiance was being treated for a severe head injury earlier this year with a medical team in San Francisco when we discovered that we both had Lyme disease.
We are now over two months into taking Alinia and have just started taking Doxycycline as well. So long as we are handling the two, then we are adding Azithromycin to the mix.
We purchased our own home HBOT unit due to her head injury, and the extensive and thorough work of her team of doctors.
We are confident that we are going to beat this and survive but only because we are enlightened and in good hands with our medical staff.
While we don't always feel so good, especially right after a 90 min session in HBOT, we still think that long-term, this too shall pass.
Without breaking any forum rules I hope, I want to let those folks out there who are suffering and searching for answers and help that if you are waiting for your "standard" doctors to help you, you are dead wrong. We know first hand. You MUST own your treatment and be FULLY enlightened.
We have a team of 5 doctors helping us and they are amazing in their approach and compassion and fearless efforts in holistic solutions to help us.
Dr. S is personally walking us through this and he himself has Lymes, and has tried it all. If you want facts to add to your own personal journey with Lyme disease, read the book "Incurable Me" by Dr. S... you will begin to understand the struggles we all face moving forward!

Good for you! HBOT can really help folks turn the corner, so to speak. Sometimes it can take many dive sessions.

Congrats!
I thought this was going to be a story of someone like me who got Lymed before Lyme was discovered. But I'm ancient and you're not!
Many on our board have used HBOT to get well. I'm very happy it helped you.

Lymetutu... thanks for the comment, although at times I feel ancient. I did get multiple tick bites as a kid back in the 1960's, so I believe I was infected like you before this menace had a name. I've had perhaps 20 sessions in our HBOT, but now it has got to be a daily part of our regimen.

Just keep going with it - I've heard from several people that they had dozens of dives and then suddenly, they were feeling better.
