   5 years ago I had a Hanta nephritis (with 3,08mg/dl max., the creatinine was a few month later at a normal stage (1,04mg/dl) again) In July this year, I was infected with lyme disease. I had two antibiosis but I still feel bad. I have high blood pressure, creatinine of 1,42mg/dl and proteinuria. But my doctors don’t believe that there is connection between the lyme disease and the renal insufficiency – because there is nothing in to find in the literature. I hope, you can change this. I wish you all the best for your further work. If I can support you (e.g. labor results), feel free to contact me.

      There is an urgent need for more research.

      Greetings Flow and all you fellow Lyme Disease sufferers!
      My heart is breaking as I read your blogs for th he first time! My name is Kerry and I was born with Lyme Disease in 1955 and have survived an onslaught of autoimmune disorders, like ALS and MS as well as Lyme Carditis and now Lyme Nephritis! I am a Pharmacist since 1991 and had a very successful and lucrative career spaning 5 States! I also raised 4 children but one, my oldest daughter-39yrs died of untreated and undiagnosed Lyme Disease as the blind Western Medicine MDS had misdiagnosed her with ALS!
      This willfull denial of the truth and the intentional coverup of the greatest crime against the Western World by The CDC’S, FDA’S, DRUG COMPANIES and Western Medicine is the greatest travesty of this generation!
      I need others like you who are willing and able to unite together to fight against the lies and suppression of the Truth by rising up to educate the public concerning the real situation! This is the greatest growing epidemic in the Western Hemisphere!

   I have had Lyme for about 10+ years my urine infection has got worse.
   I am in continent.

   The NHS refuse to treat more than 2 weeks. Nice guidelines talk about chronic rather than re infection.
   The department of health though it might recognise CE and FDA tests.
   NHS doctors are still in denial thinking that the illness cures itself.
   That a resistance occurs.
   They only treat the condition with oral antibiotics not IV.
   The Big Tick Project done by Bristol University vet scientists using vets to take radium samples from dogs across the UK has found that they are wide spread.
   The south east and south coast and Scotland have always been bad.
   But there is a ridge following the M1.
   Where it’s high.
   I believe it’s to do with the increase in technology transmitters following the road. Along with tree’s meant to hide them. The transmitters and wind turbines don’t comply to levels of electromagnetic fields laid down in
   EMC and EMI law. This is an international
   law. But governments have been ignoring it for sometime. In the US there is a no
   complain law brought in in 97.
   In the U.K. They just removed the legislators in 2002 Radiocommunications Agency and BT’s equivalent was closed to save money.
   The Mod knew back in the 50/60s that increased levels of electropollution/radiation would kill benifical insects.
   While leaving Tick, woodlice cockroaches and other similar creatures still alive. The Butterflies and Bees die along with us humans.
   Governments are more interested in money for licence fees. Industry and the military have told them. But the government think industry and the Mod can solve it. So we die of cancer and possible Lyme Disease. While we are told to eat right and take excersize. Oh and sleep when this stuff goes though our brains.
   For this they will send us to a psychatrist
   who will give us a happy pill.
   Financing both the electronics industry and the pharmaceutical industry.
   There’s more money in the electronics industry than the pharmaceutical industry.
   The Lyme vaccine has not been invented for Humans as yet. They keep saying it’s coming soon.
   Animals are still using Type A OSP whether it really works.
   Or is just a contaminate in the food chain. As animals don’t show pain.
   Their herd members would attack them.
   A vet can’t tell if a dog has Lyme.
   The farmer just excepts the fact cattle and sheep have Lyme.
   While medical doctors don’t talk to vets.
   Preferring to deny there is a problem.
   Local councils in the U.K. Have no strategy. The NHS doctors are not telling them. One vet told the local council in Essex in 2016 that 2 dogs died of a Lyme related infection and others were made sick.
   They put a notice up on the field.
   The Chief Vet was called in he just said he could not see anything.

   One of the Vet scientists at Bristol University said pre-stages of Tick are hard to see.
   We have people in charge who don’t have the right information.
   Even if they are told they do nothing.
   Just like the London Fire a few months ago. Officials just ignore the problem when it gets that bad they have no solution.

   I read that in America homes and vegetation are sprayed just as they have in malaria. 3 times a year…

   A Parks manager told me burning fields was a method of controlling Tick also.
   Trees have been planted in the UK so there is a natural corridor for insects and animals to move.
   I would think the same is happening else where. These creatures are not being contained. What preditors there were are being killed.

   I hope this info does something?

   My son is 8. He had terrible kidney pain a few hours ago. When he was almost 3 yrs old he had severe bladder pain that led him to be hospitalized. Doctors thought it was a brain tumor, extreme pain disorder, Fabry disease…after months in a Chicago hospital, 4 weeks at Mayo, they all gave up. It was lyme disease. He has been on a variety of antibiotics for the past 4 years. I started to take him off about a month ago. Now this pain. I don’t know what to do. I am glad you are puplishing studies about this. I am not surprised Lyme and/or coninfections are causing kidney and bladder pain. My son’s urologist’s do not believe it, but I do.

      It can be difficult to determine each illness is connected. Various specialists have to weigh in on each issue to make sure you do not miss anything.

   My 16 year old daughter who is extremely active in sports has been tested positive for Lonestar Tick Disease. Over the past couple years since her diagnosis, she has recently been experiencing extreme fatigue, been light headed, hot/sweaty, and urinates frequently. We took her to a Cardiologist where she tested positive in a tilt test. The doctor gave her Fludocortisone to try to put a hormone in her body to make her body retain water better but it has not helped. She also was prescribed metoprolol. She has been taking it for two weeks with no improvement. Since there is not a lot on the disease, I was wondering if you knew of any similar cases or if her symptoms could even have anything to do with it.

      Autonomic symptoms are common in tick borne illnesses. Children may be diagnosed with POTS syndrome (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome only to be diagnosed later with a tick borne illness. See the following Pubmed article.

   I have stage three kidney disease and was positive for lyme disease. I did antibiotics and was tested after treatment with two different labs and still tested positive . I also had colon cancer in 2009.

      I am sorry to hear you have such serious kidney disease. I am glad they tried treating for Lyme disease.
