Yeah, unfortunately, doctors face a lot of legal problems for "over-prescribing" antibiotics. Doxy alone really isn't enough; if you want to go the antibiotics route, you need to be on at least 3 different ones to address all potential borrelia forms (along with common coinfections). I don't have all the info off-hand, but doxy will kill the active spirochete form of borrelia for a very short time. It'll quickly send the remaining 95% into cyst form, and they'll wait out your treatment until the drugs are gone before shifting back into the active spirochete form. Some doctors pulse doxy (2 weeks on and 2 weeks off IIRC), and that seems to get around the issue to some degree.

Metronidazole, tinidazole, and flagyl are all good cyst-killing abx for borrelia. I'm a little rusty on the antibiotics approach in general because I deemed it not worth the side-effects in my instance (I was on antibiotics for a few years and wasn't getting better while my microbiome was being destroyed). Whatever you do, avoid fluoroquinolones. Those will fuck people up; the condition it causes is known as being "floxxed". People just fall apart after that one, and I don't know of anyone recovering.

I would definitely recommend something like japanese knotweed and colloidal silver or colloidal gold (which seems to work better than silver) if you want to go the chemical based route. I know a few people who have done really well / been cured on that combo. Just be aware that if you have mercury in your system, it will amalgamate with it and make both harder to remove. Do you know what coinfections you have?

You might have to ping me tomorrow if I forget, but I can look through my notes and see what else I can find. Currently, I'm into the energetic approach, so things like the zappers, rife machines, and magnetic pulsers, frequency specific microcurrent devices, biophotonics, etc. I'm currently using a rife machine, and that's yielded more progress than anything else for me personally.

I'm taking a bunch of supportive herbs too. I use a combo of the following to flip the epigenetic Nrf2 switch, which controls 2-3% of our total cellular genetic expression, downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines, upregulates anti-inflammatory cytokines, kicks tissue repair and detox functions into high gear and increases glutathione production. Each of these herbs latch onto a different part of the receptor and seem to have almost the same efficacy as sulforaphane, another Nrf2 activator.

1.2G NAC
300-450mg Bacopa Monnieri (sp?)
1.2g ashwagandha
3-5 grams of curcumin
120-150mg of green tea extract
300mg of milk thistle

I take this combo once or twice per day along with frequent doses of liposomal vitamin c with 3,000mg of vitamin c per dose, 2 or more hours apart as many times as I feel like it per day.

I'm also taking bromelain, quercetin, L-theanine, and L-ornithine. The first two are mast cell stabilizers. L-theanine helps shift my nervous system out of fight or flight mode (along with the ashwagandha), and l-ornithine helps to clean up ammonia in the brain, which reduces brainfog and anxiety significantly.

I'm taking a handful of other things too including magnesium, a rotation of fenbendazole and ivermectin (look up the sharkman protocol), and high doses of lugol's iodine (20-50mg per day).

I'm gonna send you a PM too with a little bit more info.

edit: I did show significant improvement for the first year or two on antibiotics, but I wasn't really getting any better after that while still testing positive for these pathogens. So, I changed strategies with herbs and rife treatments.

That and I wouldn't be surprised if the hospitals weren't getting some kick back from the insurance companies. You know,you get some of the grift if you charge people more for not having insurance and just charge us the normal prices.
