Yes, me. I had lyme, babesiosis and bartonella. I had these diseases about 10 years before getting my diagnosis.
I completed my lyme treatment 4 1/2 years ago, and I am still symptom-free, enjoying my life--the same life I had before lyme disease.
And, I have many friends and acquaintances whom I referred to lyme doctors near me. They also all got rid of their diseases.
The doc is the key, my friend. The doc is the key. I and my friends got well by going to Burrascano type doctors. So, I am a great believer in the Burrascano protocol based on my experience.
If you are not familiar with the Burrascano lyme treatment guidelines, I suggest you read and STUDY them to get your education on this disease.
You must evaluate your doctor's treatment of this disease. You can't just have blind faith in the doc and expect that everything will turn out right. That is because not all doctors know how to get rid of lyme and its coinfections.
I suggest asking if a doc follows Burrascano and only taking them as your doctor if they do.
And, you should know some people who have been cured of lyme by the doc before you decide to go to him.
Otherwise, you can spend year after year treating this illness with little to show for it except a depleted pocketbook.
That's why I still hang around this site--to point new folks to the good docs so they don't have to spend so much time figuring out which doctor has the best chance of getting them well and what GOOD lyme treatment looks like.
I myself wasted 2 years on inadequate lyme treatment that helped me but could never get rid of my diseases.

Tick Lady in the house!!! Listen to her! She's right!
I've been off meds for 5 years too, doing great. many, many others have gotten cured, no longer post on Lymenet and have moved on with the happy things in their life.

I also have been off abx for 5 years and rife for maintenance.
I credit my LLMD for such good care. I still do have some joint pain but it does not cause too many problems.
I do everything I ever did in the past, except I take more supplements/herbs than I used to before Lyme.
The paranoia in me tries to avoid walking in grassy areas and never sits on logs!

lifeline, I've started using the rife machine. How often did you do it initially, and how often do you now do it for maintenance?
Thanks for the help

I have been off abx since March 2009 and am doing great.
You can go to General Support, Success Stories and I'm sure you'll be encouraged.
My story is near the end of page 2.

been in remission coming on 4years final treatment was the kicker that got me over the edge. docdave's cocktail, highly researched NO ABX OR CO TX tx for systemic yeast and prevent dormant virals vfend 3 months acyclovir 3 month no sugar,yeast,grains mucho, mucho probiotics, available in pharmacy in refrig so they are active cultures.
should be clean of yeast in 10 days to 4 weeks. improvement should be gradual and better every day may herx from the kill of the hidden yeast for several days.
can not get better from long term abx until systemic yeast is cleared PERIOD!!!!!!!
