Im sorry to hear your friends are suffering from post treatment lime, it’s a horrible ordeal. Where I live we have a specialist group that treats mostly forestry workers that continue to be sick even after having been treated with antibiotics.

From what my friend with post treatment lime told me they have limited success but where able to treat him. From what I remember he was was on a mixture of antibiotics and an anti rheumatoid medicine for a year. This did work and most of his symptoms have now disappeared.

Before that he tried all sorts of different things, non worked, it’s all quackery. My advice is to search for a specialist center for post treatment Lyme and stick with the science. People with chronic Lyme disease are a great target for quacks because of the poor understanding of the disease, unpredictable symptoms and utter desperation of its sufferers.

Take care
