No antibiotics??? Why???

Hello,
So My IGeneX came back pos for IGM and IGG as some of you may have read my other posts. My LLMD has decided to start me on L-theanine, NAC, Teasel Root and Curcumin, but no antibiotic. I think I defiantly have lyme but have had it for years, should I still start an antibiotic? What do you all know about Teasel Root and is there a good place to get great supplements at a discount in bulk? Thanks again for your help and knowledge.

My doctor started me on abx but added herbs later. Agree with Jackie, fair question to ask.

My LLMD was an all-antibiotics-all-the-time kind of doc, so I can't speak to the herbal approach from a doc.  Did he indicate that he would add in antibiotics later?  Maybe he's just building your immune system in preparation for antibiotics or something like that.

It's a very fair question to ask the doc.  When do you go back for the next appointment?
