Lyme Disease

Error

I was diagnosed in August 2015. I most likely have had it since I was a child. I also have Bartonella, Babesia, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Typhus Fever and Vasulitis. I started oral anibiotics, antimalarials and supplement treatment in August. I was also put on a dairy free, gluten free, sugar free, yeast free, vinegar free, fruit free and Paleo diet. I have not seen much improvement at all. My stomach is not handling it well. My Doctor has me starting UV blood irradiation treatments. I start my first one on 10/26/15. I am hoping this does the trick. Very little of all of this is actually covered by insurance. At least my prescriptions are covered!
