Guest guest Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 Hi Tamara, If this tick was attached, means he was alive at some point... What you need to be concerned about from this tick, was first did it carry Lyme and second, did he pass it on to you.. Only if you could answer yes to both, would you have to be concerned about a new acute infection you would have to now deal with along with your chronic infection you are dealing with... Not all ticks carry Lyme and not all Lyme ticks pass on the disease, but then how do you know? This is what Dr. Burrascano says about new tick bites, I would presume yours was the first, but really have now way of knowing for sure: TICK BITES - Embedded Deer Tick With No Signs or Symptoms of Lyme (see appendix): Decide to treat based on the type of tick, whether it came from an endemic area, how it was removed, and length of attachment (anecdotally, as little as four hours of attachment can transmit pathogens). The risk of transmission is greater if the tick is engorged, or of it was removed improperly allowing the tick's contents to spill into the bite wound. High-risk bites are treated as follows (remember the possibility of co-infection!): 1) Adults: Oral therapy for 28 days. 2) Pregnancy: Amoxicillin 1000 mg q6h for 6 weeks. Test for Babesia, Bartonella and Ehrlichia. Alternative: Cefuroxime axetil 1000 mg q12h for 6 weeks. 3) Young Children: Oral therapy for 28 days. EARLY LOCALIZED - Single erythema migrans with no constitutional symptoms: 1) Adults: oral therapy- must continue until symptom and sign free for at least one month, with a 6 week minimum. 2) Pregnancy: 1st and 2nd trimesters: I.V. X 30 days then oral X 6 weeks 3rd trimester: Oral therapy X 6+ weeks as above. Any trimester- test for Babesia and Ehrlichia 3) Children: oral therapy for 6+ weeks. *Doxycycline- Adults: 200 mg bid with food; doses of up to 600 mg daily are often needed, as doxycycline is only effective at high blood levels. Not for children or in pregnancy. If levels are too low at tolerated doses, give parenterally or change to another drug. Dr. B says pathogens can be transmitted in as little as 4 hours... I guess this comes down to a judgement call on your part... Have you felt any new symptoms you didn't have in your recent past? If no, then you may want to take the chance and not continue the Doxy... If yes, I would continue the Doxy for 4 - 8 weeks past the extinction of the last known symptom... In the future, if you or anyone you know gets bitten, taking a single dose of Doxy, 200 mg will most likely kill it off right away.

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Hi Jim, I was hoping to get of of the abx with time served. I will stick with them for the duration. I know its childish and I know they can prevent a new infection but my CD57 is still in the teens and I don't want to lower my immune function even more. It also might get sunny one day in the next couple of weeks and I don't like to hide from the sun. I'll stop complaining as I'm feeling much better. Thanks, Tamara > > > > > > Hello all: > > > > I'm putting a really bad week behind me as I had to go on Doxy for the new tick I found dead but attached to my scalp.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Hi Tamara, The CD-57 really isn't a reliable test... Have you caught my posts about this test? Many LLMD's don't trust it. If you are on Doxy, don't go out in the sun! I don't know what effects it will have on you and when I was on Doxy I still went out in the sun, but not supposed to... Well here is what it says about the sun, I guess you could spend a little time out there with no problems... :-) http://www.drugs.com/doxycycline.html >>>Avoid exposure to sunlight or artificial UV rays (sunlamps or tanning beds). Doxycycline can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight and sunburn may result. Use a sunscreen (minimum SPF 15) and wear protective clothing if you must be out in the sun. Do not take iron supplements, multivitamins, calcium supplements, antacids, or laxatives within 2 hours before or after taking doxycycline.<<<< I just think it is best to be safe than sorry with this Doxy... Staying on it will hopefully kill off any new infection and shouldn't set you back to much... I always have a bottle of Doxy in the fridge, just for times like this... If you take it quickly, one 200 mg dose should kill off any new infection. Some say this can be taken up to 72 hrs, but I believe the quicker the better... If a Lyme tick infects only after 4 hours (and they can), I think taking Doxy at 72 hours will not be effective... Take care, Jim > > > > > > > > > Hello all: > > > > > > I'm putting a really bad week behind me as I had to go on Doxy for the new tick I found dead but attached to my scalp.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Hi Jim, I have never read anything about the cd-57 being unreliable. I just goolged it and could not find any info regarding that. I would be interested in seeing that because the hope always is that the test is wrong. My nuero has told me that the bartonella could be the reason why my numbers are always low as the bart works in your cells and turns off their immune response. It is also possible that mycoplasma is now more powerful now that the borrelia is low and that is why my numbers are still low. I have tested several times over the course of 1 1/2 years and never gotten over 18.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Uh, sorry, but the advice you gave, Jim, about 1 dose of doxy doing the trick--that's an IDSA fable!! It DEFINITELY doesn't work! And the doxy is not only for the Lyme, but for the co-infections, too (but not Babesia). So stick it out, Tamara. Better to be safe than sorry. > > > > > > > > > Hello all: > > > > > > I'm putting a really bad week behind me as I had to go on Doxy for the new tick I found dead but attached to my scalp.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Hi Gloria, Do you have any supporting data to your claim that a single dose of Doxy given immediately after a tick bite does not work and that it is a IDSA fable? I have suggested this to many on and off group for family members or friends who were bitten, in my area I have suggested this to more than 100 folks in my community and of all that have reported back to me, not one had Lyme. In fairness, many bitten had no clue of the kind of tick, some had their ticks tested and some came back positive for Lyme. My wife was bitten again by a deer tick, the test on the tick was positive for Lyme, yet one dose of Doxy given immediately after the bite, she did not contract Lyme for a second time. The only coinfection Doxy also may treat is Ehrlichia. Here is a study done on this subject, a single dose of Doxy given within 72 hrs of a tick bite and supportive studies that it does work. The only thing I take issue with this method is the length of time the Doxy can be given, 72 hrs. as it should be given a soon as possible. http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/short/345/2/79 >>>Conclusions A single 200-mg dose of doxycycline given within 72 hours after an I. scapularis tick bite can prevent the development of Lyme disease.<<<< http://www.aldf.com/raad.shtml >>>SEE TICK BITE<<<< http://www.aafp.org/afp/2004/0415/p1935.html >>>In areas with a high incidence of Lyme disease, it may be reasonable to administer chemoprophylaxis with a single 200-mg oral dose of doxycycline (Vibramycin) to persons bitten by an I. scapularis nymph tick that is identified as being at least partially engorged with blood<<<< http://jac.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/dkq097v1 >>>Results: Four placebo-controlled clinical trials were included for review.

Antibiotic prophylaxis significantly reduced the odds of developing Lyme disease compared with placebo (pooled odds ratio = 0.084; 95% CI, 0.0020–0.57; P = 0.0037).<<< I will continue to suggest to anyone bitten by a tick take Doxy 200 mg, then watch for symptoms of any kind and see a doc if any show up for further treatment. At least in my area, doctors WILL NOT treat even for early Lyme without a positive Lyme test.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Jim,Remember my probiotic, yogurt, scientist - I just mentioned?He went on all three antibiotics at 72 hours (so maybe a little late). Stayed on the abx for 9 months and is still very sick. He is now rifing. I guess he wasn't as lucky as some. I still think it's a good idea, though.He was not bit by a tic. He's not sure what it was, he was outside and suddenly he felt like a knife had been stabbed in his back - his wife confirmed something had bit him. I think that was on a Sat, by Mon he was at a LLMD, who took labs and put him on the abx.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Hi ,From what I've heard, there are many other vectors now besides deer ticks. It's horrible to think that any biting fly might be a carrier, but that's the truth. I know that chronic Lyme is often sero-negative, but I've got to tell ya, when a mosquito bites me, I want to kill it before it can then go bite someone else and possibly pass my disease on!Be well,Léna Jim,Remember my probiotic, yogurt, scientist - I just mentioned?He went on all three antibiotics at 72 hours (so maybe a little late). Stayed on the abx for 9 months and is still very sick. He is now rifing. I guess he wasn't as lucky as some. I still think it's a good idea, though.He was not bit by a tic.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Hi Jim, That was not meant as a scold to you; I did read the thread and what you said about staying the course. I just was alarmed that people might get the wrong information from this. The studies you quoted, esp the NEJM, and ALDF, are all completely IDSA slanted. Take a look: did any of them do long-term follow-up on the subjects? Not likely. The studies showing Borrellia persisting after much more abx than that are too numerous to mention here (I have them though). Dr. Burrascano's guidelines are quite clear on the subject. In addition, I got bitten again last Memorial Day. However, in spite of much longer low-level doxy (200 mg, AND IV rocephin that I was on already), I got new onset Bell's Palsy!! It has improved, but hasn't gone away completely. Any LLMD worth their salt knows that the one dose of doxy absolutely isn't sufficient. Your wife was lucky! Or had a terrific immune system. I just would hate to have someone think that it was adequate and find out the long, hard way that it isn't.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 I don't believe there are any sure things with the lyme. I don't think there is enough data and what we get is so filtered to believe anything for sure. I have a friend who went on doxy within 72 hours and she is very sick. She was bit a couple years before me and stayed healthy until a couple of years ago. She is now very ill and probably won't get better as she refuses any type of alternative treatment. She doesn't do anything at all just gets sicker and sicker. I have been unable to get through to her in any way as there seems to be so much damage to her brain that I can't reason with her at all. She really doesn't even seem like the same person to me and I have lyme. I am worried about my new tick bite. I think I might be ok as it was dead. I think it got poisoned by my dogs frontline and then tried to catch a ride with me. I have not been able to hold down the doxy for a couple of days now. Vomit has never been one of my symptoms so I think it is the doxy. After I vomit I feel fine so I don't think its a bug. Any ideas Tamara > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Hello all: > > > > > > > > > > > > I'm putting a really bad week behind me as I had to go on Doxy for > > the new tick I found dead but attached to my scalp.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 HI Tamara, Just remember, if you got biten by 100 ticks, only some would have Lyme and not all of them would even pass the disease on to you... So with one tick bite, your changes are relatively low you contracted Lyme... What you are doing now is just a precaution and for the most part probably isn't needed for anything other than a little insurance... But don't let your guard down, look for any symptoms that may suggest otherwise, just in case... Vomiting is not a symptom of Lyme... Can you take the Doxy after some food? If so, this may help. Do take it at least 2 hrs away from other meds and supps to ensure they will not have an affect on it.. And I think you also have to leave a few hours away from any foods with calcium... Take care, Jim > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Hello all: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I'm putting a really bad week behind me as I had to go on Doxy for > > > the new tick I found dead but attached to my scalp.
