Well I would certainly suggest anyone diagnosed with an autoimmune disease be tested for Lyme - as there’s a chance of “curing” it instead of “managing “ an autoimmune disease....
8 Malarone a day does seem a lot. Are you sure he didn’t mean 2 twice a day? Maybe because you’re only taking it for three days a week? I’m trying to remember what Dr J prescribes. Maybe call and get...
LLMD MR protocol (to compare) Atovaquone/proguanil (Malarone) 250 mg/100 mg. Start the atovaquone/proguanil at 2 pills 2 times a day for 3 days, and then decrease to 1 pill 2 times a day. Combine it...
Be careful with it - my dad was addicted to it and it was the start of his demise. I think it’s worse for the elderly though. Is it prescribed for daily use? Is it for short term ? Did your doc...

I went to a Neurologist before I was diagnosed. I had twitching (all over my body) , tremors, some jerking. Didn’t have heart arrhythmia though. He ruled out ALS, Parkinson’s and MS. Then I had an...
I’ve had several mri’s and they’re really not too bad - just boring. I am a big chicken and hate/scared of 90% of any/all procedures. You can tell them that you’re claustrophobic. There’s a button...
Sorry to hear you are suffering! I had an EMG and NCS - one was little pads put on various spots on my left arm... and the other one was needles stuck into several areas of my arm. I don’t recall...

It will be interesting to hear what he says now - if he’s changed his stance. That reminds me - I got a call from the clinic to book my next in-person appt. I told the assistant that I will not be...
"TSH being "the gold standard", is wrong. It should not be and thus is why so many people being treated for thyroid issues do not feel well. This is what happened to me for years. The t4 and t3...

I haven’t been treated by any of these - but thought I’d share with you - Buhners recommended list of herbalists. This is an older thread -...
I would go with the Igenex testing. You could call them and ask which Babesia is best. And for Lyme I’ve heard the IGXSpot is a good one...
I don’t even know which one I have. My LLND didn’t care nor did my LLMD. I assume that means they are all treated with the same meds....
I had forgotten about the venous pooling. I remember my first appt with the LLND in 2014 - he looked at my feet and said that’s what it is. I did mention lyme - but it could also be from Bart - not...

Welcome to the forum! Bands 23 and 41 are enough to diagnose Lyme disease. What were the IgG bands? I suggest you seek out a lyme literate dr for treatment. A few weeks of doxy alone isn’t enough to...
