Yes, Kev. Amoxicillin is the wrong medicine and rarely used due to proven ineffectiveness. You need a tetracycline drug. You must find yourself a lyme literate doctor. Please call Dr West in Pocatello and ask him for a reference, or try to join the lyme forum I gave you a link to.
Are you going to an infectious disease specialist? not that that may be the full answer cause I think mine undermedicated me, giving me only have the recommended dosage for lyme, but I was lucky cause I didn't have lyme after all. It was prophylcatic care.
Please please continue to search. You are not out of the danger zone. Often lyme can be treated easily if caught soon enough with the RIGHT antibiotic. Usually they start with Doxycycline, never amoxicillin, then move up to bigger guns if that does not work.
You must find a lyme literate doctor.
Just because your pain is diminishing it does not mean that you are getting well. Often, when lyme becomes chronic the arthritic symptoms will go away, only to come back another day. Some people carry it for a long time before they get sick again. My neighbor carried it for about 20 years without symptoms after his initial illness, except for developing mental problems, fogginess, confusion, forgetfulnes;' He was never treated initally. The second time round it almost killed him and he was on IV meds for 6 months. Now he has chronic lyme and uses other things than antibiotics to control it. Fortunately his wife seems to be immune. He is doing will now with herbal treatment, enzymes, colloidal silver and mms
Doctors who have the right equipement and know how can visualize the cyst with a dark field live blood analysis microscope.
What part of the country are you in if you don't mind me asking and I can search. PM me if you like.
