Hi. I was amazed at your post.

What exactly should Alan do at his next doctor appointment. Get a specific test for lyme. I'm sure he doesn't know what to ask for. He did get a spinal tap, they found protein in his spinal fluid, he is on IVIG and his balance is much better.

What exactly is the treatment for lyme disease.
And how on earth can Alan have ever contracted Lyme Disease. He has never been in the grass, he does not go out on walks, nothing like that.

He's been diagnosed with CIDP which is a variant of Guilliam Barre (which is Mother had)

Do you think he has had a mis-diagnosis of lyme disease??

my goodness.

P.S. Alan's neuropathy got way better after he was seen by Dr. Theirl, a chiropractor/neurologist. He walked in with a fentanyl pain patch, weighing 267 and was all arthritis and stiff. Months later, he was off the patch, lost tons of weight and joined a gym. He stands up and walks fine. Never had a problem.

Can you re-direct me to my previous post about Alan's test? I'd like to print it out. Thanks
