Anyone know specifically how Lyme can contribute to an erosion in the stomach lining? Besides the obvious source of the stress that comes from having to deal with Lyme, does anyone know of anything else?

Thanks!

I don't know, but bartonella can really do a number on the stomach and gut.

....not all abx are hard on the stomach...a combo of amoxicillin, biaxin, and prilosec is used for ulcers.
