If one is to relapse after going off Doxy, how long does it take? A week, a month, or longer?

Also, with my neuro symptoms returning, does that necessarily mean I'm relapsing or could these be lingering symptoms despite being cured? (I hope)

Sorry to hear you're still not feeling well.


If you still have symptoms, you generally still have an infection,

unfortunately; "Post-Lyme syndrome" is, in large part, BS.

Are you seeing an LLMD? Generally, they believe that it

takes more than just one drug to successfully treat TBI patients.

If you're still having symptoms, you need to treat. How long were you on doxy? How long after the bite did you begin treatment?

adamm - why do you think post-lyme syndrome is BS?

I've read studies where they say they can't detect spirochetes but the person is still having symptoms.

I don't know much about it but it does seem like it can happen.
