why is there a window? people report recovery after several years with an appropriate treatment.
- voisin 5y agoRecovery with Lyme isn’t always forever. It apparently goes into remission and comes back later. Not sure if anyone knows why or how it does that. AFAIK it is only cured if treated very quickly, before the blood tests are accurate.
- saalweachter 5y agoThe bacteria can cause long-lasting damage, basically, and the symptoms of Lyme disease can just be that damage.
- inter_netuser 5y agoYes, that can be on me situation. The frontiers study shows bacteria persists inside the brain.
- istjohn 5y agoThe bacteria migrates throughout the body over time, including into the brain and spine, so it's easier to eliminate when treated promptly.
