Hello! I have been sick most of my life (since age 9 y.o. - I'll be 59 tomorrow). Treated once long-term for Lyme (2.5 years), and was dramatically better - but all of the symptoms have returned and the original treating doctor will not do so again. I am dying...that is not an exaggeration...and I need help...please!?
My PCP is very nice, but sends me to specialists - I'm up to 5 now. They all find "something" wrong within their expertise, but I know that Lyme is the umbrella under which everything else exists. Thank you!

You need to be evaluated and treated by a Lyme-literate doctor (LLMD). Non LLMDs have no clue about this horrible disease or its complex treatment!
A LLMD is one who has treated Lyme disease and the co-infections which come with it for many years and has gotten patients well. A good one will follow Dr. B's Guidelines, the "gold standard" for Lyme treatment.

Happy Valentine's Day to you - we'll help you here. You can post in Medical Questions and General Support and people will discuss with you.
You can also use the Search function at the top of the page and type in any word or phrase and archived threads will come up. Just know we're all different when it comes to how we respond to remedies and the trick is to find what works for us.
Lyme gets treated in 3 areas - kill/deter the organisms, detox, and fortify the body. All areas get discussed a lot here!
Plus many have co-infections - you can google for symptoms of babesia, bartonella and ehrlichia and see whether you think you have any. If so, they get treated too.
