Not true in Lyme Disease. Having Lyme disease and making antibodies does not offer any immunity ! You can get reinfected over and over and indeed people have.
And this is why, if I thought I had Lyme (which I already do, but I mean in hindsight, knowing what I know now) I wouldn't wait. I'd take the CS as soon as possible and kill those buggers before they set up permanent housekeeping in my body! Just MHO. chc _______________________________________________________________ Hello Deb and everyone: This story seems to me to illustrate the virtue of giving your immune system a chance to fight off any bug it "catches" thoroughly *before* coming to the rescue with CS, with electromedicine, with antibiotics, or with *any* external anti-microbial. If your immune system is able to fight off the invaders, it will do so by creating antibodies against the invader--enough antibodies, and strong-enough ones, to defeat the enemy. After the invaders are gone, you retain the antibodies for an extended period of time--in some cases for life. They, in turn will protect you in the future. Of course there will be times when we need CS or something like it. But for the most part, it is best to let the immune system take care of the infection on its own, as long as it seems to be doing so effectively.
