[QUOTE="OMI100, post: 82158, member: 71"] CDC guidelines are C**P..... If someone ever comes back positive based on CDC Guidelines, then they are SICK, SICK, SICK and most likely not even able to get out of bed. If you think you may have lyme don't even screw with your DR just order your own western blot test. I have found the WALKINLABS.COM western blot test is very reasonable in cost. Don't think that all DRs know what they are doing and when your PC tells you that there is NO way you could have lyme because there is no lyme where you live .... Read this articles below...

[URL="https://www.facebook.com/GlobalLymeAlliance/"]Global Lyme Alliance[/URL] Now if you or a loved one is diagnosed with Lyme your next battle will be to find a DR that understands what Lyme is and how to treat it. Soooo the CDC says it can be cured in 30 to 45 days of treatment with antibiotics and you or your loved one are still sick as dying dogs, your insurance will most likely bail as it is quite clear that you do not have Lyme......

I speak from a position of knowledge on this subject as my Daughter came down with Lyme a few years ago. She lives in Atlanta and we have no idea when she got bit. She NEVER had the tell tail bulls eye rash (BTW large number of people that get bit do not develop a bulls eye rash). She would not listen to Dad and got sicker and sicker and was unable to work and was barely able to get out of bed and shower.

She would have had to have 2 or 3 more bands positive to meet CDC guidelines, BUT she had Lyme..... I was able to find a DR in Mobile Alabama that understood Lyme and we got her down to see him. Showed him the labs and he said "Yep you got Lyme..." After one year on antibiotics the Lyme was gone, but the effects were still there. Dr said it could be one to 2 years before the body fully recover from the Lyme infection. She was able to start working again part time after a few months on the antibiotics and slowly worked back to full time. Today she still gets tired easily and still is not any where near where she was prior to the Lyme, BUT still getting better slowly. Long post BUT everyone needs to understand what Lyme is, what it can mimic and how to deal with it. If caught soon after a bite it can be treated awith good results BUT if left untreated ..... I can tell you about that...... As can the DR in the article above and Khris Kristofferson... And soooo many more people. Educate your self and learn..... [/QUOTE]
