My husband, who has been the picture of health all these years (he's 45), has been having lower back tightness and pain, trigger points in back, male anatomy pain and numbness, urinary problmes sporadically (urgency when he goes for a walk- he has less than 30-second warning to dive into the bushes to pee), difficulty swallowing, weight loss (he is already too thin according to family doctor), temper outbursts, OCD, depression, sleep problems (he normally sleeps like a baby), tender lymph nodes in groin, chronic sinusitis that a surgery 2 yeras ago did not fix.

The doctors have ordered a slew of blood tests. They do not think it is cancer or a hernia. The did say, interestingly enough that and "infection" is possible. (These are not LLMDs)

I had him do Igg and Igm for Lyme with Igenex, but we do not have the results yet.

I am almost positive it is Lyme....how on earth could I have given him this? If I did, then this disease is much scarier than I had ever imagined. I knew men could tranmit to women but the reverse leaves me wondering about all the ways we dont know about how this thing is spread and transmitted. Its the seeing the tip of the iceberg and knowing there is a huge part under there that is not seen.

Sounds like you may have given him lyme. If a woman can give a man syphyllis--why can't she give him lyme? If you haven't read it yet Lyme and Syphyllis look very similar--sprocket like.

I gave both my sons lyme, they are three and seven. We found out over Christmas. This is a horrible, horrible disease.

I'm very sorry.

I hope you find out soon what is wrong, so your husband can get better!

Long time since I've seen you!

Sorry to say, but where you live has a very high rate of infection. People can get Lyme just walking out in their back yard.

Animals are also very likely to carry ticks into the house.

While it is certainly a possibility that your husband could have gotten Lyme from you, it is even more likley he got it just living.

So far there is no proof of sexual transmission. Probably a good idea to be careful, but it just isn't known whether it happens.

My son and I both have Lyme, and neither of us has even seen a tick, much Less noticed a tick bite.

It does sound suspicious for Lyme for your husband. I'm glad they are checking everything out for him. I hope, for both your sakes, that testing comes out very clear so that you can fully commit to a protocol for him.

At that time neither of us ever thought
of lyme.

It was at my dr. suggestion he be tested and sure enough he was positive. We are very grateful he thought to do so.

I believe he caught it from me.

Good luck to you.

I never saw a tick or got a rash.

He had been DXED w/Lyme but caught it very early and was treated with ABX, way before he met me.

i think there is a possibility that I caught it from him.

I think whenever you have 2 people in teh same household with lyme that is a possibility.

It took 6-8 years out of our lives, but we are both well now. We did most of the therapies that I posted about recently in my doctor's lecture to OHM in San Francisco in late February. From everyone I have met over the years, this approach (multi-approach) seems to be the only one that works. I have gotten to know cancer/Lyme patients that are getting well that way, and many others. It is a slow process, but if followed judiciously with patience, it works. ART is the strongest factor in this treatment - diagnosing what is where, and determining the treatment/remedies which ones and how long. All infections are treated that way in the order the body is able to handle it without overload. It includes all from parasites to mold and fungi, to bacterial and most of all viral infections. The list is long, because the body has been weakened via Lyme and just about everything seems to want to take over.
Many patients also exhibit TB in that stage, which has to be addressed.

Dr. K. described his approach in his lecture to several hundred doctors and gave it to me to post here for you.
