My question is can you ever completely eradicate Lyme and there be no evidence that you ever had it?

Or does your DNA always reflect that you have Lyme? Is it just a matter of it being in remission and you have to come to terms with occasional inconvenient flair ups?

If you are symptom free, can you still pass it to a partner or child?

At this point, I would be satisfied with remission! [spinning smile]

I don't think there are answers to these questions.

I am symptom-free and do not have to deal with an occasional flare-up.

IMHO, unless you get it early, there is no way to get rid of all of the bacteria. The goal is to keep the immune system strong to keep lyme in check.

I'd be real happy for 50% now and a 100% soon [Roll Eyes]

Have you been sick long?

Thanks for all the replies. I have been sick for minimum 6 years, but things progressed really quickly.

I figure that you can't get every single bit especially if it embeds in tissues, ect.
