"Borderline" disease?


Recommended Posts

Have you ever heard of someone having borderline lyme disease. I though either you had it or you did not. :wub: Following are my daughters recent results. Looks like lyme, right?

Yeah, it's like you can't be 'a little bit pregnant'

However, some may carry Lyme with little or no symptoms, their healthy, unencumbered (no other infections pulling it down)

immune systems handling it and keeping it in check.

But it's scary to carry, IMO, because a stressful event could cause a crash :-(

I remember reading somewhere that Lyme suppresses the immune system, in some more than others. You could have Lyme but not have any antibodies show up on the test b/c their production is being suppressed. And it is only after antibiotics that the tests come back positive, like the body was given some help and THEN the immune response could be mounted. Does that make sense? Still on my first cup of coffee here. :)

Continuing treatment is based on symptoms.

It would be lovely to have better Lyme, Bartonella, Babesia testing,

and by better I mean:

100% it's there, 100% it's gone, like they do for cancer, they can get remission claimed with certainty.

We don't have that kind of testing with Lyme disease-

which is why it's so important to be treated by a Lyme literate medical Dr. or Natural Practitioner.

I'll go further to say it's equally as important for the Lyme patient and/ or caregiver to become educated themselves about the disease,

and with that knowledge, listen to their own intuition about treatment strategies presented.
