Allen, If you go to your doctor armed with a printout of the checklist/questionnaire available at the following website --- http://www2.lymenet.org/domino/file.nsf/UID/guidelines --- then you will be better prepared for the initial interview. This is an overview of Lyme disease by an allopathic physician, with a checklist of symptoms, diagnostic hints, and allopathic treatment guidelines. You will find the symptoms that you have mentioned that you have had already.
However, your holistic physician may have a better treatment protocol such as that mentioned by Dr Bill Biagioli. I am a former "Lyme" victim now symtom free. I am looking for a faster way to help my friends get rid of some "Lyme diseases." Note the plural. When you are bitten by an insect that gives you Borrelia burgdorferi you usually are given one or more other diseases along with it like Babesia, Ehrlichia, Boronella or the new Borrelia recently announced. For this reason the electrotherapeutic approach of Dr Bill Biagioli appeals to me. It is so broad spectrum. All I would add is hyperthermia --- frequent saunas at 110 degrees --- because the Borrelia burgdorferi cyst is killed by heat, once you are able to endure the sauna for 30-45 minutes at a time. It relieved my pains as well. But I was a case of "chronic Lyme" having been sick for fifteen months before beginning treatment. I healed very slowly (two years of treatment) because at the time I did not know about the Bio Wave or EMEM. I used CS and blood electrification and the sauna. I would be interested in knowing how you make out with your first doctor interview. Best wishes, Carlos LeClair at [email protected] ---------------------- --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
