Hey Bill that's great news, Congrats!

FYI> my cd-57 was 60 and I tested positive for lyme. Sorry. Don't want to worry you, but it is a great idea to keep an eye on your wife.

Take care and best of luck to you and your wife!

It is strange he didn't want to do any kind of treatment. I showed up at his office for the initial visit with a CD-57 of 78, dropped to 54, then it started going up from there. But we'll go with it for now.

You bet I will be watching her very closely. He's a pretty sharp doc; right on the cutting edge of research from what I gather. (but I couldn't get him interested in using the C6 Peptide test for some reason...).

Update:

Over 2 months now, no abx, no recurrence of Lyme symptoms...still have the gastrointestinal issue to deal with. Had an Endoscope a few days ago, looks normal, but awaiting biopsies to confirm all ok. My be just residual inflammation and not Lymes.

BUT, my wife got bit by a dang deer tick. However, it was only attached less than 2 hours, and the LLMD thinks she's at a very low risk of infection. To be safe, we put her on some Cefzil immediately after discovering it...cross our fingers there aren't any co-infections.

We just can't seem to get a break it seems.

Hi Bill. I am glad your Lyme symptoms are still gone.

I am sorry your wife was bitten. Was the tick reomoved properly? Personally I do not think tick attachment time is relevant. The tick that bit me was attached for three hours at the most and it transmitted five diseases.
