    @cripps, I don’t know anything about Lyme Disease but I’d advise you to speak to your doctor or specialist

    Hi there , been to the doctors this morning and apparently he took advice from the hospital and they have adviced him to give me one more week of antibiotics, if things don’t improve at the end of the course then I have to go into hospital where they will take a more aggressive course of treatment what that entails I’m not sure so will shall see by next week. I really do feel so Ill, I’m not sure myself if I’ll make it to the end of the course because at the moment I’m don’t even know what day it is. Thank you for your concern it’s nice to know there’s people thinking of me. I’ll keep you updated. ??
