Hi I am a new user to this website but a 2 year lyme sufferer from Iowa. I have been on long term oral antibiotics for most of the time with good relief but have recently had a relapse, My main symptoms are in order of severity: Swollen armpits, achey legs, fatigue, chin numbness and sciatica in the right leg. I have been researching hundreds of treatments to try and wanted to know what others have tried. I just finished the VitaminC/Salt and am On the the Aloe Vera gel and Pycnogenol. I was seeing a doctor in missouri but quit going when I thought I had overcome this illness. It has returned and am looking for a different route then oral antibiotics and or other doctors I may want to see in my area. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My main concern is my armpit swelling Thanks, Marv

Marvin, I can relate,it feels like I have an orange under both armpits & when I would itch them they would drain a smelly/sticky liquid, as far as the Sciatica, mine is on the right also along with seizures & many other symptoms. The really sad thing about this is I worked at a Health Dept. This showed me how Political/Controversial this Disease can be. So I just take day by day, learn as much as possible about Chronic Lyme, keep openminded so far that's been keeping me going. I hope more people respond to this, I would like to hear others viewpoints on this topic. " Peace be with us all", Robin
