Hi All

I have been being treated for Lyme and Babs
close to 3 years and I want to tell you
that I am Feelin Good --

Its been a Very Long 3 Years filled with
of PAIN and worry --

These 3 years have been Very Up and Down-
I sure got feeling Worse before I got
Feelin Better --

I have had Lyme and Babs for 20 yrs-
I did not figure out what was wrong with
me till about 3 1/2 years ago--

I was Very sick -could barely walk and spent
95% of my time in bed - several yrs -
I was mostly dead -

Now I am Feelin Good --

If I can get this far--
You Can Too -- Jay --

Ps
Now I have to clean My kitchen --Ouch -

Jay,

What an inspiration! You posted at just the right time for me personally, when my tummy is aching from the latest antibiotics and I was having that feeling of "I don't know if I can do this much longer."

I lift a glass of tonic water to your health!

Jay,

Congratulations! It is always wonderful to hear about

good news. May your good feelings last a lifetime!

PS: Did you use IV? My llmd thinks that I should use

IV, because my neuro symptoms are persisting even

though I have been on orals for 10 months. I would

like to, but do not think that I can afford the IVs.

That's great news, Jay!

When my daughter was diagnosed with babesia, after a year of bartonella treatment, I did a search and yours popped up.

One especially "smelly" day, I found your post on smelling like a homeless person and three damp dogs.

Thanks for the hope.

Hi All

Vermont--
Depending how long you have been sick
It takes awhile --

I Only took Oral ABX but I did take EXTRA -

SomeThings I learned --

Look for Co infections --

Tests are Poor-( Useless)

You have to take control of Your Situation-

Do what ever it takes to get the
Help you need -

Realize the We are All Guinea pigs
at the moment -- Ouch --

Take ABX On Time -Dont miss doses -

These bugs are Tuff --
and Need to be treated that way --

Dont Beat Up on Yourself -

Drink Lots of Tea --

Laff

Get Fast Internet --
(ATT has it for $15 )

You can Make Good Luck Happen
--Jay--

Hi Jay,

Thanks so much for your good advice, all!

It is amazing to think that we are all guinea pigs at this point...at least in the US. Many of the European nations seem to understand lyme disease much better. It is not as much a political issue there.

Take care and keep feeling great!
