i had symptoms for 9 months: fatigue, heat intolerance, sweating, inflammation, nerve pain in my spine, hip, leg, and foot, and bell's palsy for 6 weeks.
a neurologist ordered a blood test for lyme disease. the igg western blot test was positive. a general practitioner prescribed doxycycline.
so far, i've taken 3 doses. already, there's been a decrease of symptoms. there's noticeably less inflammation in my face and the back of my head and neck.
i hope symptoms don't recur after the course of doxycycline.

Supplement with Kefir or plain unsweetened whole milk yogurt. Or fermented food like Kim Chee or saurkraut. Keep your gut flora healthy.

Whole milk yogurt was my go-to for that time period. Especially that really tart stuff, can't get enough of it.

good advice. i'm vegan. i like cleveland kraut. it's raw and has pro-biotics. it's overpriced. but it tastes good.
i like kimchi, too. i think there are versions without shrimp / fish.
i have a fermenting jar. but i'm afraid to accidentally create botulinum.
