I too have had Lyme Disease: on top of the fatigue, brain fog & pain of the disease, a fortnight of twice daily antibiotic injections that caused nausea and vomitting right over the Christmas holidays was no fun. And sadly the underlying rheumatoid arthritis that had bumbled around in the background of my life with a single episode in fifteen years was sparked into life by the immune response.
On a more happy note, we visited the town of Lyme in New England from where the disease gets its name and it is a lovely area!
Prevention - the cat gets treatment and he, I & MrPP get the all over body check (and I mean ALL over) whenever we come in from the garden. I never found 'my' tick or got the rash ...
Can - I hear so much about people who struggle on and on with this desease and the co-infections. Might I suggest having a read about the American author Amy Tan's experience as it may give you a different pespective to discuss with your consultant. Sendng your wife my very best wishes.
