Movie Lyme Life

I already rented it and am going to watch it tonight. i really didn't think it would be focused on lyme, more like a small mention. it did get over 7 stars out of 10 on imdb.com, which seems pretty...

Hey Georgiagirl, Sorry to hear that you haven't had as much improvement as you would have liked on the IV. How much longer will you be on them? Is your insurance picking up any of the cost? I never...

Biaxin and Plaquenil together? What was it like?

Lisa- seems like the cipro was really hitting the bartonella for her. If she did that well on it, I would definitely ask the doctor to consider adding this. I loved the biaxin/plaquenil combo. I did...

Is Lyme Sexually Transmitted?

yes, it is very controversial. some llmds think yes, some think no, some say they don't know... there just isn't enough research about this (or enough research on anything concerning lyme). it is...

Is Lyme Sexually Transmitted?

Although sexual transmission is not 100% proven, it is possible. Another big possibility in your case is that you also got bit by one of those teeny, tiny ticks that you rarely notice! Especially...
