Hi Robin,

Thanks for all the info, I will look into that. I am on docecycline for my lung

disease, but I always get thrush in my mouth, wich is very painful, so then I

have to take nistatin for that. I get thrush real easy don't know why. I went to

the lyme site and foundd out a lot, I am going to the dr again and talk to him

about getting tested. I'll let you know inthe mean time I will read all I can

get my hands on. Thanks

Lorrie

> > Lorrie, can't find your original post, but wanted to tell you that my

fibromyalgia of 25 years turned out to be Lyme disease, a bacterial infection I

acquired from a known tick bite in my foot. I am now on oral clindamycin

antibiotics, 150mg 1-2x/day and my fibro pain is at zero. I also take various

anti-inflammatory supplements that treat my symptoms. We're all different and

respond differently to treatments. People can also get Lyme from other insects

and from human fluids and tissues, including congenitally. If you want to check

this possibility out, you could go to www.lymenet.org, sign up with a name, then

click on flash discussion, then seeking a doctor, then make a post with WA in

the heading and people will give you referrals. Anyone can also access the

archives there and read on any topic. I'd say about half of Lyme patients

present with fibro symptoms - ie, inflammatory presentation. That's what the

Lyme bacteria does, is inflame everything - nerves and soft tissues. - Robin
