about Lyme disease for

[Guest guest]

Hi fellow members,

Can anyone correspond with the naturopath about Lyme disease in regards

to her patient who is seeking the AP (see below excerpt) ? I am clueless on the

subject but i know if an AP doc is worth his salt, he will test for Lyme when

appraising a patient's history, as Lyme can closely resemble other auto-immune

diseases ?? (i think) <rolling eyes>

" I am thinking that I may send my client to Sydney to an Infectious Disease

specialist (Dr Bernard Hudson at Royal North Shore) as her whole

scenario began with a series of bites, both tick and spider. My

understanding was that lyme disease was not a possibility in

Australia. It seems that thinking has changed on this. He also does

antibiotic therapy "

Best,

~Leonie

disease.Mosquitos are the main carrier now. Lynne G/SD
