It's been a month now, over 2 weeks on doxycycline and i have seen no improvement. I've researched lyme disease quite a bit because i live in Nebraska and i havent found a dr that knows about it in my area, i had to go 4 hours away just to get a diagnosis, i still havent seen anything that mentions swollen feet that hurt so bad i cant even walk. Has anyone else experienced this or heard of it??

    Many times people who have Lyme disease will also have Biotoxin Illness, so even if you treat Lyme it wont get better until you treat the Biotoxin Illness. It is very difficult to find doctors who treat and are knowledgeable on these topics
