need reassurance

So now I have lymes theres a part of my brain that still isn't sure I need a few vets to reassure me.Had 2 tests done one by igenex one by quest both came back positive and cdc positive and all bands positive were the same both tests that is pretty conclusive I have lyme right?Sorry for being a bother just so overloaded right now and not to versed in lyme ive never been sick were a pill for a week or two wouldn't fix everything.

Bigcat,

Welcome to the community, there is a lot of very knowledgeable people around here, with some great advice. I would recommend slowing down, and starting to consider a treatment course.

You have lyme disease. Sorry to be blunt, but "Congratudolences" as they say.

Getting a CDC positive is very rare, it's like getting a politician to admit he lied to you 5 minutes after being elected. Do you know how long you have been infected? I would recommend checking out the the "New to Lyme" thread as it is densely packed with great info. I would start on treatments and detoxing.

Just wanted to say hi and let you know others are going through similar things to you, and there's a group willing to listen and help sort things out with you here. It really is one of those communities that contradicts that the internet is full of trolls

It took me many times for members on this forum to tell me that I had lyme. You are not alone in feeling the way you do.

"Had 2 tests done one by igenex one by quest both came back positive and cdc positive and all bands positive were the same both tests that is pretty conclusive I have lyme right?"

Yes, it is. You have lyme.

NO, the "it's all in your head" thing is NOT true.


I understand why you'd say that, though.

I was so overwhelmed with so many symptoms...that kept stacking up...with no answers...at one point I thought I was going crazy...I was a mess.

Have you found a LLMD, yet?

Hang in there...lean on us here...

Bigcat,

I am 2 months into treatment and it still plays tricks on me. I wonder sometimes if I'm wrong, even though people well educated have all told me yes I have it. I wasn't lucky enough to have a positive test, so I'm going off history w/ tickbite and rash.

May I ask how long you have been having these issues? Also, what has your Dr recommended to you for treatment? I only ask as hope it is not the classic case of "2 weeks of doxy"

Welcome congratuladolences ...
yay cdc positive ,they have to give you 30 days of treatment and acknowledge it ..also means your immune sx still works ...

consider bvt ,rife ,herbs and abx ,leave no stone unturned ..read burrascan guidlines ,watch under our skin and justin and christie ...read all of lyme net ,ellie lobel story and blogs like lemons n lyme and will ther be cake ...its a nightmare and there is no waking up...people heal...so i have heard

Welcome Big cat,

Sorry to hear you are ill.

Have you looked at the "new to lyme" post at the beginning of the lyme forum?

Have you heard of Stephen Buhner? He's a master herbalist and a great place to start regarding herbs. His latest book is something I read almost daily and wish I would have started my son on earlier

There is a website devoted to his protocols, just google Stephen Buhner lyme. But I really think the book is invaluable for educating you with this disease.
