Jules, this is an excellent question. I've heard people refer to their sx as "waxing and waning" but never thought of it in terms of complete remission. I'd like to know the answer to this myself.

On another note, one thing I constantly read about is the importance for checking for co-infections (Babesiosis, HME and HGE types of Ehrlichiosis, Bartonella and Mycoplasma) so make sure everything's been covered when you go see the doc! As you probably know, most Lyme folks say that the way to go in terms of labs is IGeneX. They'll send you a free kit if you call them. They're very helpful and if you explain your situation they'll recommend which panels to do.

Gee, if it's confirmed that Lyme does completely remit, I might be sending in my own kit!
