Hi, there, @cbmtl. I haven't been tested for Lyme. I could well have it, but just feel as though I deal with enough as it is. I have terrible reactions to ABX, too, and go out of my way to avoid them.
I think I've read that ABX treatment helps mainly for recently acquired Lyme infections. I grew up in MS and played outside and in the woods a lot. My mother or aunt would sometimes put my sister and me in the bathtub at night and pick off ticks. (Ewww! Sorry about that image.) However, I don't know if those ticks from my childhood carried Lyme.
My best friend lives in Philadelphia, and she said Lyme is very common there. She's always enjoyed good health, but got a Lyme infection last year. She took the ABX and responded well. That might be because she had a recent infection.
Our member who seems to know the most about alternative ways to treat Lyme is Wayne. @Wayne, could you direct cbmtl to some of your discussions on this subject? Thanks.
I've only had a Rife treatment once, and it was for fibro pain. It actually made it worse temporarily, so I didn't pursue it. I've had health improvements since then, so it could be I would react differently now. I think Wayne has done Rife, too.
Good luck and keep us posted.
