Rowena:

Thanks for all your information.  I have forwarded it to Jane.  It will take a 
while to absorb.
Thanks to all others who have responded.
She was back home within 48 hrs of being bitten, and the doc here immediately 
put her on Doxycycline, 100 mg twice a day for 3 days.
According to some postings, that should be continued for more days.
She is also using some colloidal silver, which she does not like to use because 
it previously turned her cuticles silvery gray.
I am trying to persuade her to use my olive leaf, oregano oil combination 
(which I take twice a day) - she is a bit fearful of that because I had such 
strong detox symptoms when I first started using it.
The Salt/C protocol may be too strong for her.  She is very sensitive to all 
meds and supplements.  However, she has not reacted to the Doxy yet.
I have a Godzilla zapper from V.  We also have the therapik, but my 
understanding is, it is only useful if you get the bite right away.
She has already tried the Bentonite clay (with apple cider vinegar I believe).  
 I will have her do more of that.  I had a really itchy mosquito bite a few 
days ago, was driving me nuts, and an application of bentonite clay took the 
itch away within minutes, and it never came back.  That stuff really works.

  Google Salt and C protocol.
  Real salt not table salt, or Himalayan, or the chemist's stuff, though I 
would prefer Himalayan.
  Might be a bit late to put salt, CS, etc. on the entry wound, but still worth 
doing.

    Hi: 

    My wife, Jane, was bitten by a tick while visiting her mother on Shelter 
Island, one of the Lyme capitals of the world. 
    Anybody out there with knowledge of what should be done immediately to deal 
with the possibility (probability?) of infection with Lyme? 
    My understanding is that if you catch it early, it is easier to eliminate, 
but doctors here in Vermont don't know much about dealing with Lyme. 
    There is actually too much information on the web, if you can believe that, 
she wants an answer fast and my head is spinning with the many Lyme articles I 
have already read, none of which were targeted at what to do right away if 
bitten. 

    We were told here that you have to wait four weeks to test to see if you 
have been exposed to Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme spirochete), and then the test 
(not sure what test they are talking about) costs $200, is NOT covered by 
Medicare or our health insurance, and may or may not be reliable. Anybody know 
about that? 

    Thanks, 
    Del
