Hi, I am new to LD and this forum, but will appreciate any help I could get from you. I am diagnosed with round rush and blood test for LD 4 weeks ago. Right now I am on 2x100mg doxy from my regular doctor for two weeks. I am scared that LD will relapse after I finish doxy in one more week. All LLD are currently overbooked in NJ, so I need to research it for myself. Let me know if anybody has experience with the following? 1) ASAP Health MAX 30 - extra-strength SILVER 2) Samento & Banderol - HERBS efficient in eliminating both the spirochete and round-body forms. 3) Lumbrokinase - ENZYMS for dissolving Lyme Disease biofilms
Thank you for reading this and your help.

Try and ask your doc for an extension of your meds. Maybe if you could get an appt with a LLMD and tell your GP you have an appt on ______, he would be more willing to extend.
I personally would be careful of taking anything until I had more info.
Take care

Make an appointment with an LLMD right away!!!! You will not kill out the spirochetes with 200mg of doxy a day no matter how long you take it. Double that and you might get somewhere.
What is "round rush?"

The three alternatives you mention are all very good. The Samento and Banderol actually work against biofilm. Here is an excerpt from a study by contributing author Eva Sapi PhD.
There is an urgent need to find novel therapeutic agents that can eliminate all these different morphologies of B. burgdorferi. In this study, two herbal extracts, Samento and Banderol, as well as doxycycline (one of the primary antibiotics for Lyme disease treatment) were tested for their in vitro effectiveness on several of the different morphological forms of B. burgdorferi (spirochetes, round bodies, and biofilmlike colonies) using fluorescent, darkfield microscopic, and BacLight viability staining methods.
Our results demonstrated that both herbal agents, but not doxycycline, had very significant effects on all forms of B. burgdorferi, especially when used in combination, suggesting that herbal agents could provide an effective therapeutic approach for Lyme disease patients.

Consider adding antiparasitic herbs to your regime. They saved my life. Also look into the salt/c protocol.
You can do a search on here by typing parasites and salt/c into the search bar at the top,
