Hope you have a good recovery from everything!
This will be my third time with Lyme so my Doc checks regularly.

3 weeks of Doxycycline is the plan. Worked 7 yrs ago

Do you spend a lot of time in the woods or is this something that once you get it, comes back?

I live in the woods, cut firewood,jog there, and walk there.
I check carefully in the shower but Some get thru
Chronic Lyme is a thing that doesn’t seem to be fully understood at this point

With Bernie joining the club I thought I'd up date.

I'm feeling great, all the meds are a PITA but I'm getting used them.

Bernie reacted more quickly and smartly than I did.

Actually he likely didn't

New is that the Bern actually had a heart attack, meaning the blockages were complete enough to cause damage to the heart muscle.

I got mine fixed at 90% which I think means no damage ( I'll find out in the coming months)

My angina was the signal , I never had to sit down or got sweaty.

Lucky my Doc pushed the stress test or my "denial" could have made things much,much worse.

Don't hesitate
