Jay I do have chronic lymes was in the hospital for a month a few years back. I had an infection control specialist and yes I'm positive on the Western blot and always will be as you always test positive if you've had it. It's related the syphalis which I've never had. I had a pic line and received IV rocephin. This was after being given doxycylline first round which did nothing. I was in the psych unit for a med adjustment and they kept me and treated the lymes. Did MRI of brain, spinal tap. Those were negative. I am from CT. But I subscribe to a lymes newsletter and it's all over the world even the UK I'll forward you one later. After discharge I was on biaxin xl for over two year for three months at a time. The docs in Charlotte don't believe it exists here they are nuts. Last assessment last year health dept called again as Western Blot positive but the doc I saw said it's inactive and requires on more treatment. I'm not so sure I agree as the spirochettes hide in body tissue and come out at various times. They can cause arthritic symptom, chronic fatigue syndrome and other mental disorders. Love Phillipa
