Message: [QUOTE="Chelo, post: 3246678, member: 205"] I contracted Lyme sometime last year and was tested and treated in Oct of last year. My natropath tested me for lyme and came back negative but positive in three bands of the western blot. She explained to me that the bands that were positive show that my body was making antibodies for Lyme. I decided to bring my tests to my PCP for review and he said he couldn't prescribe me antibiotics because I did not have enough positive bands to warrant antibiotics! Luckily, a friend of mine, who also is fighting Lyme connected me to a Cardiologist in Madison that treats Lyme patients. She is on the international board for Lyme. Well respected in the Lyme community. I brought her all my testing paperwork and she immediately prescribed me Doxy for 2 months. I did have a flair up in May in which I needed 2 more weeks of Doxy. I feel so much better now. No muscle pain or brain fog. [/QUOTE]
