Be careful about “Lyme specialists”. I’m not saying there isn’t a possibility of Lyme dz, but there are a LOT of quacks out there. In the medical community they are known as LLDs, “Lyme Literate Docs” and they are not well regarded at all.
i went to 11 highly regarded doctors and ended up being bedridden with high medical bills. Finally went to a lyme specialist and I am walking again. I have my lfe back...so I can’t agree with your assessment as it pertains to my life.
BTW, I’m all for ANY treatment that works. If the Lyme treatment helped, I am very happy for you.
I’ll take a LLD over a Lyme denial doc any day. The history of spirochetal diseases demonstrates these disease require far more then the three week antibiotic “cure”. Unfortunately this remains a very controversial disease that hurts many but the truth will prevail and some infectious disease docs will look more foolish then they do now. Hence the block head fight IMHO.
The movie UNDER MY SKIN addresses this and is powerful if not a frightening tear jerker.
