I found one of those fuckers in my dog's neck. Had to take her to the vet because I didn't want to fuck up the extraction. They like to bury themselves in your skin.

I had Lyme disease as a kid, like 10 years ago now. It cleared up pretty fast after I got on the drugs. You if you catch it early, you Gucci.

If you get lyme and let it fester until it's "chronic" you deserve it.

I knew a guy who came down with chronic lyme disease. Had a tick on the back of his leg or something and never noticed.
It's such a shame because he was working on some really cool shit and was a world record holder (won't say what, don't want to dox him) in the guinness book of wrs, and I was really hoping I could work with him when I had the time, but he might never get better now

Lyme is a slow reproducing bacteria that encyst itself in areas of low blood flow like cartilage that make it extremely resistant to antibiotics. In addition treating it doesn't mean the damage to the brain or joints go away just like lepers fingers don't grow back. They can experiance the symptoms with no infection. The damage is done.

yeah well so is half of medicine. i honestly don't understand how primary care can do their job without losing their mind from so many insipid complaints, it's only natural that they eventually come up with bullshit diagnoses just to placate the nonsense that comes in the door every day

That's because you didn't get treated early enough.

If you got an infection in your hand and your arm had to be amputated would you blame lack of sensation in the fingers of that hand that no longer exists on "chronic gangrene"?

Chronic Lyme is pseudoscience. Residual symptoms can exist but it can be eradicated.

Wear an industrial respirator (or don't get it all over your face moron) and sprinkle this all around your house and garden at the start of spring and summer. Let it sit for a few hours then water it in. Congratulations you just killed everything with an exoskeleton. Also you can put a tablespoon in your drink as a silica substitute. Good for nails, guts, skin (not physically on your skin) and hair.

I don't think I have Lyme because there aren't any deers where I live but approximately one year ago I began to have crippling fatigue. I literally go to uni at 8AM, and by 12PM I'm falling asleep and feeling extremely weak, so much I carry my pillow with me and just rest on the floor, fuck whatever anyone could think. I got a shitton blood tests and only my vitamin D is low, so I took 3k ug for a month and a half but it didn't help with fatigue. I also had a dust allergy so I thought maybe it could be that, so I finally got treated with antihistamines but no luck either, it doesn't make a change to my vitality. What the fuck do I do. I feel braindead most of the day. Help.

chronic lyme is a fictitious disease that every medical association is on record stating that it's fake. these people have been misdiagnosed and duped by charlatans, they have MS or CFS or fibro or MDD or just more money than sense.

There's serious shilling going on in this thread because the legitimate medical community agrees that this disease is fake.

Have you got tested for MS. A friend also had all that and was diagnosed with MS. Also not sure if meme but he told me that when he started a keto diet a lot of his symptoms got better. I'm not a ketofag but maybe it's worth a try.

I've been trying to cut sugar and carbs out of my diet. Keto is hard because it's hard to pound down calories. But I lost a lot of weight since cutting sugar and carbs out and did notice less nighttime urination and thirst. I doubt I ever achieved ketosis though.

Yep. I noticed I had it within 2 weeks of beginning to feel pain, spent my 10th birthday in the hospital, and after 5 days in the hospital I was all Gucci.
