Scott,

Sorry to hear about the diagnosis of lyme disease. My last private duty
patient had ALS and vent dependent, his family believed he too had lyme
disease, its very destructive.

This was back in the early 90's and I can't recall the doctors name, he
was qutie famous for treating Lyme with IV antibiotics. If you look in
the amf archives you'll find his name and how he lost practice after
practice going fron state to state (La. - Mo.)helping folks with Lyme
Disease. I've not followed his story tho so I can't tell you if his
treatments truly work, my patient died with ALS.


Hope you will post some follow ups for from your treatment care plan.
