Just wanted to share that I found a wonderful Naturopath in Calgary Alberta who has been trained in Lyme Disease by the ILLAD group in New York. I am very impressed so far. First appointment was amazing - she realized that I had many medical issues that had to be addressed pre-antibiotics, in order to give the antibiotics the best chance of working for me ( and to avoid me getting super sick on them). I totally agree with her. These issues (one for example - diarrhea 3-10 x's/day - every day for the past 6 years) my doctors over the years have taken no concern in. I was relieved to hear this naturopath say that she felt I was not absorbing enough vitamins and recommended Meyer's cocktails (iv vitamins) and probiotics among other things. She is preparing my body for the upcoming battle.
Mt point to this post, is to let anyone from Alberta know that I think I found a gem and would pass on her name and contact information through email, if desired. For the first time in many years, I feel a little hope regarding my health.
