Guest guest Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 No. I am not that person. I just finished a week's worth of ABX for a cold. You might have me confused with someone else.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 So really the antibiotics just tear your system up and the bugs go into cyst form - then come back with a vengence when you stop taking ABX? Took about 7 weeks yes? nancy Re: [ ] Re: 10 months Treating lyme got first cold Take some antibiotics, the kind your MD would prescribe. I was in the same boat, 10 months on the Buhner protocol and got a wicked cold. As soon as I started taking the antibiotics, I felt better and my Lyme symptoms subsided too, although they are back since I stopped the ABX.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Montylife- How long have you had the cold? I don't have any answers for you, just curious. I usually get a flu every year but since I have been sick with Lyme for 7 1/2 months I have somehow avoided catching the kids & my husbands colds. I think my daughter may have even had the flu a couple of weeks ago. I was thinking, I would be catching things easier because of my immune system with lyme. What gives? -Sonya Sent from my BlackBerry® smartphone with SprintSpeed [ ] Re: 10 months Treating lyme got first cold > > So my question is ...... If I am already taking immune enhancing products and all the like, what do I take to bring this cold back in to check? not a direct answer, but it could be a good sign. Many lymies no longer get the common cold and sore throat because their immune systems are screwed. If it comes back it might be a sign your system is recovering. I had this problem (severely) once every year until I got Lyme. Last month I got a sore throat again (although very mild compared to before my Lyme years), for the first time in 5 years. Hoping it is a good sign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
