Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

There's some thing called a herxheimer reaction that most Lyme patients experience. As the Lyme bugs start dying off, they emit a toxin into your blood stream that often makes you feel worse than ever. Two "home remedies" that sometimes help lessen the effect are drinking lemon juice in water (which alkalizes the body) and taking epsom salt baths. (You can buy epsom salts at the drug store for a couple of bucks.) Recommend you get a copy of the "The Lyme Disease Solution," by Dr. Kenneth Singleton. And read up here.

Trust me most dr's are clueless on how to treat lyme

Late stage or chronic lyme takes a lot more then just doxy to get well

You need to call your doctor and tell them that you are in more pain and not feeling any better.
