Interesting reading about dogs that get lyme and that 3-6 of abxs at a minimum are recommended. And articles state that the bacteria can remain in tissue.

Vets know this but Infect. D don's want to know this. interesting. One article.

this is a great point.

especially since alot of research that is conducted for lyme and other things is done on animals.

You would think this would be obvious to any doctor to keep up with a zoonotic disease by looking to the EXPERTS in zoonotics.

to be fair, i've read that the disease is quite a bit different in dogs, and horses and people

how ever...

vets definitely do a better job tx my animals than any infectious disease doc did treating me or my family

the idsa do know...they just pretend they don't-at least the ones that wrote the guidelines. the others are just doing what they are told.

Lyme? Its complicated. Educate yourself.
