According to the Center for Disease Control there are over 25000 cases of Lyme Disease reported every year.

Lyme disease is caused by bacteria transmitted by the deer tick (Ixodes scapularis). Generally speaking , the diagnosis of Lyme Disease is based upon clinical signs and history. Today Lyme disease is the most prevalent tick-borne illness in the United States.

Medical Professionals believe that Lyme disease may cause loss of muscle tone in the face (Bell’s palsy), severe headaches, as well as shooting pains in the neck. Other symptoms include heart palpitations, severe dizziness and stiff joint pain, tingling hands and feet, concentration problems, and memory loss.

Lyme disease is more prevalent than most people think. The most obvious indicator of lyme disease is a slowly expanding red rash at the site of the tick bite. Lyme disease is associated with a variety of signs that may present at different stages of the infection. Lyme Disease is now thought to be the fastest growing infectious disease in the world. Typically, the first symptom of Lyme disease is a red rash.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has funded several studies on the treatment of Lyme disease. The treatment of early Lyme Disease has been examined in numerous well-documented studies. Treatment of early localized Lyme disease typically involves a course of the oral antibiotics doxycycline or amoxicillin administered for 3 to 4 weeks.

Hyperbaric oxygen is a treatment that is showing increasing potential in the treatment of Lyme disease. Medical Doctors believe that the best treatment for lyme disease is prevention. If you live in an area where ticks are plentiful it is recommended to dress with long sleeves to minimize the risk of being bitten. Your physician will determine the best treatment plan based on your individual situation.

Lyme causes autoimmunity in the brain and central nervous system, not just the joints. It can mimic Multiple Sclerosis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and many other immune disorders. The guidelines also note that 95 percent of cases of Lyme disease are cured within 10 to 28 days of treatment with oral antibiotics.
