How can Lyme disease be treated?
Patient: Hi, I have Lymes disease. I was bitten by a monkey 18 months ago in a zoo in Honduras while on a cruise. Everyone else was taking photos with the monkeys so they handed it to me and it bit me. I have been sick ever since then. I know Cats claw is good for helping eradicate the spirochete bacterial infection. Is there anything else that you know of that will get rid of Lymes for good. Peggy Doctor: Hello, Thank you for your contact to health care magic. I understand your concern. If I am your doctor I suggest you should first diagnose yourself for the Lyme Disease before you got treatment. You can get tested yourself with ELISA, IFS or Western Blotting to confirm the diagnosis. If you are confirm as having Lyme disease you should take doxycycline 100 mg two times a day for 14 days to cure the disease. The causative agent Borellia burgdorferi a treponema bacteria is very sensitive to the drug and you will be treated for with in 14 days.I will be happy to answer your further concernYou can contact me. Dr Arun Tank. Infectious disease specialist. Thank you.
