Spector was in peak physical condition when he began experiencing bizarre symptoms, including cardiac arrhythmias, joint pain, a period of brain fog (mental cloudiness), and more. The vaccine used in humans is the same as the canine vaccine so it is almost certain that some dogs given the Lyme vaccine are getting Lyme symptoms from the vaccine itself.ĭr. The hosts of the show in discussion remarked that the human Lyme disease vaccine is no longer used because it made some of those inoculated have the symptoms of Lyme due to an antigen and host response to the vaccine. Important was a discussion by an oncologist who had Lyme who works for Duke University. The "People's Pharmacy" on NPR has an excellent program ( #1003) which discusses the latest on Lyme and other tick borne diseases including some new ones. So if anyone is feeling "flu like" and don't think you have to have a bullseye rash either, cause I didn't!, insist on a tick panel.

The babesia I have is more like malaria, so I'm on 30 days of Mepron, (10 days costs 500$!, thank god my insurance approved it).

It is completely legal for anyone to buy and administer doxycyline to their dogs without a prescription or veterinarians supervision so long as legal dosages are administered according to the manufacturers label restriction. In some countries doxycycline is given as a disease preventative at rate of 1 x 100mg tablet or capsule per week when disease pressure is high and I believe some research work has been done using a single low dose (100 mg) treatment per week in areas of high tick borne diseases.
non-human grade doxycycline is not manufactured. All of these doxycycline sellers are selling human grade doxycycline. The overseas supplier is much less expensive but overseas shipping takes 2 weeks or more.

Doxycycline is available from several sources and at prices as cheap as 10 cents per 100 mg tablet or capsule. The advice in the article was to treat for tick borne diseases as soon as you think it is possible that is the cause of the sickness in both humans and pets. Doctors did not make an accurate diagnosis of RMSF until gangrene had set in which was too late and improper diagnosis of tick borne diseases is common.

"If there is a suspicion that these symptoms could be related to a tick bite, the recommendation is to start doxycycline antibiotics immediately because time is of the essence," said Ashton."Ī recent article about a woman who lost parts of all her limbs to Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and a NC child who died in two and one half weeks above with quotes.
