[BC] Summer Warning - Lyme

[Mark Croom]

My wife and daughter are both being treated now for untreated Lyme from sometime in the past. Because it gets terribly entrenched in your system, if you have it for a very long time it is very hard to kill. They gals take two antibiotics plus some supplements for four days each week and a bunch of other supplements the other three days. This will last approximately six months we are told.
You do not want this spirochete in your system so caution is warranted in areas where the ticks are found.

The treatment is Doxycycline for 2-3 weeks and it drags you down for the entire time you're taking it and makes you extremely sensitive to sunlight.  But like they say about old age, it beats the alternative.
