Re: Length of treatment JACKIE

[Guest guest]

Hi Jackie...

My son was treated with high dose IV antibiotics twice a day for three months

and myself the same for five weeks.. We also had a IV solution each day for this

time frame... It was seven days a week... I am still on oral antibiotics

daily... That started three years ago...

Yes, it is hard... but you muxt detoxify the toxins to decrease the severity of

the symptoms...

Hugs,

Re: [ ] Length of treatment

Jackie-- I can't imagine such aggressive treatment for Lyme and I've never

heard of anyone else being treated so aggressively. The most my llmd will do is

three shots a MONTH, and those are excruciating. I can't imagine what he must be

going through. You don't have to kill the patient to kill the lyme.

My son-in-law was diagnosed with Lyme disease in October. He has been getting

high doses of

anti-biotics three times a week usually double doses ever since. The side

effects include much vomitting, dehydration, very low blood pressure, very low

sugar and blacking out. I don't know what it means but his Lyme disease % was as

low as 2% but then he got the flu and it went back up to 20%. Has anyone else

been treated this long with anti-biotics?

Thanks,

I think it is good that your doctor treats Lyme so aggressive. My first Doc

was an Infectious Disease Specialist who had no clue about Lyme. Gave me

oral antibiotics that made me sicker, then one month of IV rocephin and

declared me cured even when I obviously was not. Got a lot sicker including

neuro

Lyme etc, before I saw a real Lyme Doctor who put me on two month of IV

rocephin combined with oral zithromax. It only helped a little and after a few

month I am on my third IV treatment, which is 4 hour a day doxycycline IV

infusions. Yuck.

I feel like if I would have been treated right the first time I would not

have gotten worse all the time. Kudos to those Doctors who will continue

treatment until the patients actually improve.

I am doing Buhner in addition to antibiotics, which seems to help a little

with energy levels and overall sluggish feeling. Some of the herbs are really

rough on your digestive system and can also mess up your hormones, Lyme is

like a no win situation that has to get treated aggressively.
