Got you beat almost 65 and have tested positive for lymes through Western Blot still six bands positive but took antibiotics for over two years. As my infection control doc said when trying to think of something else to help me think of lymes like a bullet that entered your body and did damage and now try to fix the damage. Was given the option of more antibiotics didn't but for six weeks of doxycycline. No change and since the antibiotics are not good to be on for extended periods of time went off them. You can get a spinal tap and an MRI of brain to see if MS, or lymes antigens in the spinal fluid also. Phillipa
