- I'm not sure homeopathy, alone, will be enough.
For lyme, except for right after a bite with LEDUM, homeopathy is not really "strong enough" for treating such a rough infection. A more comprehensive approach is needed.
What I suggest is that you find an ILADS educated lyme literate ND (naturopathic doctor) or one of similar broad training in herbal and nutritional medicine, who also has training in homeopathy.
Hope links below help.
When considering herbal / nutritional / adjunct methods:
if at all possible - because each person & each case is different - it's best to consult with an ILADS-educated LL (lyme literate) doctor who has completed four years of post-graduate medical education in the field of herbal and nutritional medicine -
- and someone who is current with ILADS' research & presentations, past and present.
Many LL NDs incorporate antibiotics (depending upon the licensing laws in their state). Some LLMDs and LL NDs have good working relationships.
When possible, it's great to have both a LLMD and LL ND and even better when they have a long-standing professional relationship.
Integrative / Holistic M.D., etc. (Be aware that those in this category can have various levels of formal herbal &/or nutritional education, perhaps even just a short course. Do ask first.)
Links to many articles and books by holistic-minded LL doctors of various degrees who all have this basic approach in common:
Understanding of the importance of addressing the infection(s) fully head-on with specific measures from all corners of medicine;
knowing which supplements have direct impact, which are only support and which are both.
You can compare and contrast many approaches.
BASIC HERBAL EDUCATIONAL & SAFETY links,
BODY WORK links with safety tailored to lyme patients,
& WHY you need an ILADS-educated, Lyme Literate Doctor (whether LLMD or LL ND, or both) -

13-minute video - by ColdUnderstanding Jan 14, 2012
- after other treatment failures, one young woman's successful experience with homeopathy & herbal support treatment.
Just stay with her as she takes us through how she succeeded. She said it "worked miracles" - very authentic. Very hopeful.
(Parental caution for those with young children near your computer as you watch: there are few "adult" words near the end. Totally in context and within reason, yet perhaps not best for young ears.) -
