 I also took Lyrica, but have now switched to Nuronton because of weight gain. I gained 40 pds in 4 wks, and I've never weighed more than 120! Don't know how the other works, only been on it 2 days.

 lyme is complicated. From what I've read and heard, it can go into remission, and I do know many LLMD's test every 3 months or so just to see where it's standing. But it mainly is a clinically dx. meaning based on symptoms. the cd57 is a GREAT test, BUT in all honesty, I have a friend who did bicillin for a few shots, her cd57 jumped A LOT, which in reality should mean, she's getting better, but yet, she's never felt worse. Bruscanno says to treat until symptom free plus 2 months
Please do not take anything I say as medical advice. I am not a doctor.
