Posted , 8 users are following.
my health is going down ill fast and i cant get any help. My GP has told me they have ruled out lymes and thats the end of me having anymore antibiotics as they have had test results back-negative, not true as lymes action have told me extended lymes panel is still being tested at porton down. they have no idea why im so ill as other test and specialist reports have shown no obvious causes. Im at a loss to what i should do and am concerned im not going to get any hel or treatment. my doctors have watched my health decline and theres no urgency to do anything. ive asked to be refered to infectious diseases and they actualy said why! ive been so ill ive been unable to go to hospital apts and when i did attend the eye clinic was so bad the doctor sent me to A&E were they found my blood sugars were 12 then dropped to 2.4 ive never had this before and im not sure its anything to do with lymes but it was scarey i was shaking from head to foot,nearly passed out and my heart rate was fast a sweat drink stablized it. ive also had a headach for 5 weeks thats affecting my vision. ive also got what seems like vertigo (not spinning but dizzy head moving feeling when sat still) worsening of nerve pain and weakness in both arms and painfull,neck pain and cracking can hardly move it also weight still dropping(under weight and malnurished) jaw and facial pain unbearable. the doctors have done nothing but give me endless pills that havnt helped(gabapentin x3 daily,diazipan x3 daily co cordamol 500mg x6 daily) can anyone suggest what i should do to get help to stop my health decline further im housebound and suffering-vicky

Am sure you've been told this already, but a detox diet might help with how you're feeling - no sugar, no dairy, no (or very limited) booze, Epsom salt baths in the evening. Good luck, you're not alone.

I'm glad you mentioned antibx and that you're making some progress, may I ask what combo you're on at the moment? I started taking fluconazole about five weeks ago and it's literally the ONLY treatment I have found that had any effect on my health - I was feeling pretty good for about two weeks, though have now slipped back again. As a result of this, I am thinking that I probably would benefit from intravenous antibx, but as you say that is an absolute no-no on the NHS...
