Hope for a Lyme cure

What is Lyme Disease

Lyme disease comes from a tick bite. You may never see tick bite or develop a rash. You may instead present with a range of unrelated symptoms including fatigue, poor concentration, memory problems, irritability, crying, headaches, joint pain, numbness, tingling, etc.

Lyme disease can present with fever, chills, and aches typical of a viral illness only to resolve. The symptoms may resolve for weeks for months only to return as chronic Lyme disease. It may be difficult for an individual to recognize the symptoms due

to the slow, insiduous onset of symtoms. Often a spouse, parent or friend may recognize the symptoms before you do.

The diagnosis can be difficult to make. Physicians have been reported to label the illness as stress, getting old, depression, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and multiple sclerosis leading to a delay in the diagnosis and treatment.

The treatment varies from a month of oral antibiotics to months of oral and even intravenous antibiotics. Acidopilus will help prevent a stomach infection. Exercise, avoidance of alcohol and counseling would be helpful. You may need symptomatic treatment at the same time as antibiotics including pain medicines and antidepressants.
