TheRightDiagnosis???: Well, you've stepped in it. There's all kinds of so-called controversy over the treatment of Lyme disease. In fact, one mega-paged document called "Guidelines" for Lyme that I skimmed basically reached no conclusions. They just shoulda said "There are no Guidelines" But there are intelligent people out there who approach this rationally. The trick is finding one in your area. Google is your friend
