Well you know my story lol...yada yada, 6 years waiting, being finally told I probably had Lymes, a co infection and MS.......
So after seeing the Lymes doctor in August, I finally made a huge fuss and was told the letter to my GP had not been sent, and was still in my file....so I made a real fuss, and FINALLY it was faxed to her 2 weeks ago. Its taken that long to get an appointment now to see my own doctor.
In this letter she told my doctor they had found abnormal signs of Lymes etc, and one of the recommendations was to take a cycline for 3 months....also she wanted me to do loads of detoxing and stuff.
So FINALLY I got this letter faxed 2 week ago but only got to see my doctor yesterday.
So she has agreed for me to start on doxycycline (I think...I know it is one of the cyclines anyway). I have a script for 2 weeks, to see how it goes and she will give me more as and when I need it.
She has NO CLUE ABOUT LYMES, I even printed off a load of information for her, and also about herxing etc. She was amazed at my knowledge and said she needed to do some reading herself...
Anyway i am excited and scared too lol
The last time i had tetracycline, i had all the rash come out like cats scratches, was diagnosed with chicken pox, and then a reaction to antibotics. Now my doctor realises that this was probably a reaction to lymes.....not CP.
I start on Monday.
Any advice please? What can I expect if anything, and should I be doing anything else, taking anything else etc.
OMG wouldnt it be amazing if after all this time I woke up one morning and it was all gone.
Thanks for all your support and advice on here.
You guys just ROCK.
Big hugs. Mariax
