Are you on the TOA-free type or the regular type?

Did you start with ONE drop in at least 1/2 cup of water? If not, you might back up and start with ONE drop a day for while and see how that goes.

I cannot comment on what your doctor said but I'll say that the TOA-free was useless to me. Others have had some help with it though.

The regular cat's claw is one of the best supplements for my nervous system (but the TOA-free does not have that property).

There are probably dozens of past threads here on both:

I am taking it (regular cats claw) and it helps greatly with inflammation (especially in the brain).

I also take a lot of other herbs, including Green Tea (also great for inflammation).

According to the Buhner protocal, keeping the inflammation down is key to getting control of Lyme. Lyme thrives in an inflamed body.

There are many different approaches.

Good luck.

I take regular cat's claw for the fact that it keeps down inflammation. Prior to take the cats claw I couldn't bend my fingers in the morning when I woke up they were so swollen. Now, I sometimes have swelling but nothing compared to what it was like before I started taking it.
