Anyone know this ? When I do a search the info I get looks so strange it seems like it would not apply to us . I do wish there were a RELIBLE test or more specific info on the lyme docs in Europe using ivermectin for filaraial infections.

Anyone have anything to share ? Wish we had some lyme people or docs in Europe ...

My LLMD just sent the FL 1955 test on me to Fry labs,
based on the last 2 month description of me

being on Tindamax (and Bicillin) Tindamax hitting parasites.

My major complaint right now is chronic fatigue.

Thank you VERY much for a clearer picture ! This is helpful .

Sounds like we need DEC and ivermectin both. BUT how much of each drug and for how long ? Any estimates ?
