Guest guest Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 In regard to the cost issue, the bad news is that dealing with Lyme will not get cheaper if you wait. The sooner you deal with it adequately, the quicker the recovery. You also /really/ want to avoid the complications that can follow if it isn't dealt with now. I'm not advocating any specific course of action here - but whatever you decide, please don't wait. masonjarbeading wrote: > > > Good afternoon my name is Sara and I live in Greene county NY(upstate) > and my 12 year old daughter was dx'ed on June 9th 09 with Lymeshe > presented with the rash,fevor,aches and arthritis pains, > photosensitivity....went on cefitin (she could not handle the > doxicycline) for 21 days .

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 The sooner you begin treatment the better. I would go so far as to say sell, borrow, do whatever it takes to pursue whatever treatment you feel is best. Lyme is pervasive, it knows no bound, it will eat at your joints, go to your brain, literally your entire body is nothing but a smorgasbord. The more pervasive, the more there is to treat. Once it is advanced neurological Lyme you will be addressing many, many issues. couldn't have said it better, don't wait. Besides the cost there is the damage to the child, the pain and suffering. Best wishes to you. a message dated 9/8/2009 2:45:34 PM Pacific Daylight Time, lnelson@... writes: In regard to the cost issue, the bad news is that dealing with Lyme will not get cheaper if you wait.
