Unfortunately there is no hard and fast timeline for feeling better from this disease. For example, I have been in tx almost 4 years and am just starting to see some improvement. Like you, everything I tried, I felt the same.
Treatment is really about finding that combination of meds that works for your particular case of lyme...it is a time consuming task and as the patients, we get frustrated. And also it is extremely important to be consistent with meds....if you give the buggies any little opportunity to gain on you, they will. So try not to skip doses. If you have too much fog to help with dosing, maybe see if someone can help you by either giving you your meds daily, sending you a reminder phone call, whatever. You have to keep those meds constant in your body.....
Without sounding too trite, you just have to hang in there and be patient - HUGE order for any of us. But in time, the right combo will be found and you will start to see some improvement...... cootiegirl

You will get better ! About the time you cash it in,they'll find a cure or a vaccination ! It's bacteria, they'll figure it out !
This sooooooo much reminds me of AIDS. First, they bury their head in the sand, then are compelled to research it, then, suddenly come up with miraculous solutions to help people. Lyme sufferers numbers are swelling, these are votes !
One day, it's just around the corner !
