Guest guest Posted August 6, 1999 Report Share Posted August 6, 1999 hi folks I was away for a while having a lot more tests. I was on mepron/zith combo and became deathly ill and dehydrated, had more tests done. Now its concluded i have autoimmune hepatitis (i think brought on by lyme) but my hepatologist is not so sure about the lyme diagnosis.I am also having problems possibly with my pancreas and bile ducts. Even my lyme doc is telling me that lyme can cause an autoimmune response or vice versa, that the autoimmune response is a false positive on lyme blood tests.But I remember the tick bite folks, in Connecticut!! now i am thoroughly confused. But if i don't get my liver to back down, transplant is an option down the road and I don't want to go there. So i have opted for the use of steroids under the supervision of my hepatologist and lyme doc. Any thoughts? But I do urge folks if you are not getting better on antibiotics (in some respects i was getting worse) demand more tests, demand answers. I will also start juicing and natural approaches to kick this thing as well as antibiotics and steroids. Does it ever end???
