my friend, ann, who died recently, had hodgkins. they never gave her any abx. they just took out spleen, she went through chemo, and they still didn't tell her anything about abx, probiotics, support, nothing.
she was also taking high doses of celebrex, which i think is highly dangerous.
i asked her once about probiotics and she replied "oh my doctor will tell me what to take". she took NOTHING....
now she's dead, and i blame the medical community. she'd been going through all kinds of stuff and they never said one word about her heart, circulation, nothing. surely they could have found weak arteries or something.
we're in this alone. period.

We definitely need to be our own advocates. Doctors are clueless.

All Lyme people we must and we are our own best Advocates..................... Too many are giving up on us... Usually the Drs give up then the families begin to believe the Drs and this leaves us hanging from a tree branch.
The more we have here the stronger in numbers.
