Lyme's Disease can certainly be a real trouble maker. Living out in the country with every conceivable animal running wild Lyme's disease is very common. In the family we are always being bit.
My husband had if very bad, sounds funny now but there was a time we would find him asleep somewhere and he could not remember why he was where he was. We had to do something. After a lot of research I had a conversation with Dr. Kroeger and she gave me a combination that did the trick. Today it is called SPK, look up Kroeger Herbs it is in CO. We keep it on hand and take it also a precaution. What it does it to make the body an environment unfriendly towards sprioketes. You will see a difference in about a week or so; you have to take a clinical amount first, we started with 12 a day and stayed there for three weeks brought it down then to 9 and stayed that way for at least three months. He ended up using it with 9 a day for a year and afterwards he just uses a maintenance amount of three a day, unless he gets bit again, then up it goes for about six weeks.
Now this has worked on numerous people we have bought the SPK for and they are fine.
There are some that the spiroketes have really gotten into an organ or some nasty place. My daughter had cancer and with the chemo and all the SPK did not work well. My son had it for a number of years before he realized what it was; both cases would be better served using the BX Antitoxin which targets those little spiroketes where ever they are and kills them. You will find with all treatments with Antibiotics most do not give enough or long enough and the spiroketes just settle in for the long haul, giving you symptoms for years until you end up begging for a solution. I have a woman that has suffered a number of years with it and is now using the BX, her herxheimer reactions are less than some of what she got using herbal solutions. But she is finally feeling better. It's nasty and doctors do not know enough about it and some are even told to back off on the whole thing. Strange.
