I had been doing really well on zithromax and boluoke...so I decided to try the heparin.
My LLMD said I could take them together, but I haven't done so yet.
Most of my left-sided numbness is gone, except for a vague feeling on my face.
With in 10 minutes of taking that heparin, I can "feel" blood flowing through the left side of my face and it feels really weird afterwards. It gave me a headache last night.
I always thought there was a vascular component to my illness, although they never really looked into it besides blood tests.
I know I have read somewhere that lyme can cause localized vasculitis and decreased blood flow. I wonder if that is what has happened. At one point, my whole left side would just throb at night.
I woke up in the middle of the night and thought...if you have decreased blood flow to your tissue...that area isn't going to get the abx in your bloodstream either.
I know about the biofilm aspect of this too..I feel like it is a win/win and wish I would have tried it earlier.
It would be like a miracle to wake up with out numbness one day!

Sorry about the numerous posts..I am having home internet issues. Luckily my cell phone has internet. I believe that i have to get a ptt and a cbc while doing heparin. Was your dose 5000 units twice day?
