[von123678]

Have not self treated with antibiotic for a while as was on 5htp for depression which interacts with antibiotics.
I have had chestpains and palpatations for two days now.
Having urine infection symptoms again, fatigued, sore joints, headaches. Ear and vision problemss

Need to do something fast, trying rhodiola rosea for depression soon and hopefully that be okay with antibiotics.

Dog very sick too with it. Similar symptoms to me. We both tested neg at doc and vet so getting no help whatsoever, but i know we both have it.

Anyone recommend a good, genuine lyme doc in Scotland?

Thanks xxxx

Hello.  Sorry to hear you are not yet well --

I have been using Cat's Claw and found it quite helpful.  It is in tincture form (little bottle with a dropper top) so I can control the dosage, since I'm very sensitive to everything.  The 'standard' dosage is (acc. to the bottle) 30 drops a day, but I have been taking 1 drop in a big glass of water up to 4-6 times a day, and it definitely has a good effect on me.  My memory is better; body aches resolved.

Samento is a variation of Cat's Claw, so I read, that omits some portion from the Cat's Claw (which is the version found in nature), supposedly for a good reason, but I haven't tried Samento.

I googled "lyme disease scotland" and found a reference to an article:

2009: Milner Rachel M; Mavin Sally; Ho-Yen Darrel O
Lyme borreliosis in Scotland is different.
The Journal of Infection 2009;59(2):146-7.

I couldn't access the article (which sounds interesting) but the third author (Ho-Yen) is in Inverness, based on other listings I found in that google search.  I also saw a fragment of a comment about Ho-Yen's opinions being nonsense, but didn't read it.  You'll find it in the google search quoted above.  Here in the US, a rude comment about an LLMD by a mainstream MD is sometimes a good sign.

Best wishes --
