Sounds terrible. I hope you are better now.
I read here in a comment here about a person that went through years of antibiotics, to no avail. What finally helped? A 2 week fast. He said he found the idea on some forum and decided to give it a go, since he had nothing to lose at that point.
- jamisteven 7y agoYea, knowing what I know now about fasting, that would have been the first thing I tried, not surprised at all that it worked! Glad he is better.

- pagutierrezn 7y agoFasting to cure the Lyme disease sounds very strange. Almost as the infamous banana diet to cure celiac disease.
- Arete314159 7y agoThere have been some new studies that show that lingering Lyme symptoms are probably caused at least in some cases by "persister" bacteria, that go into a defensive mode during the first deluge of antibiotics and then live to re-infect you after the antibiotics are over. Similar things happen in leprosy and TB if I'm not mistaken. The latest research is about how to kill those persisters. Disulfiram, aka antabuse, is currently in clinical trials, and some doctors at specialty clinics are also using a triple antibiotic cocktail to try to achieve the same effect. I would recommend traveling to one of those clinics if you can afford it...of course they don't take insurance.
