4. From what I hear/read, Lyme does respond to appropriate antibiotic treatment. My
sister had a round with it, antibiotics cleared it up.

But that stuff can mimic several other less than fun conditions which don't respond to antibiotic therapy

:hi: :hi: :hug:

17. I hope that if that IS the answer that the antibiotic regimen knocks the stuffing out of it.

I've had friends with Lyme and other tick-borne diseases and the antibiotics did the trick.
Crossing fingers for you. :hug:
