And do not sleep with your pets!

It's troubling to see areas infested with ticks, and many people still don't take it seriously, thinking it'll never happen to them. This post is a stark reminder that tick-borne illnesses are a reality and can have devastating consequences.

Ticks are everywhere here,lyme is a big thing now.

Overcoming crippling issues from Babesia has been my biggest accomplishment so far, & I have you to thank for that Dr C. I'm still very much in the weeds w/Lyme (especially lingering damage that can't be undone), & likely even more so toxic mold illness, but I still look back & recall what a horrible place I was in w/regard to Babesia. Thank you for your help w/that.

Hello Dr. Cameron, Here is my story : Tick bite date: June 29, 2024. Delayed initial treatment (doctors refused to give me antibiotics 5 days after the tick bite date…): started on August 16, 2024, with amoxicillin for 2 weeks, followed by: Doxycycline for 1 month (from September 16), Addition of hydroxychloroquine for 2 weeks, Azithromycin + tinidazole for 3 weeks, Then another 10 days of doxycycline + hydroxychloroquine. Followed by a 6-month phase with herbal remedies, without significant effect. Resumption of conventional antibiotic treatment in April 2025: Currently on Bactrim + clarithromycin for 1 month, targeting Bartonella and Chlamydia pneumoniae. Confirmed or strongly suspected infections: Borrelia Chlamydia pneumoniae Bartonella Babesia (suspected) Mycoplasma pneumoniae (suspected) Persistent or notable symptoms: Paresthesia, chronic fatigue, recurrent sore throat and gum pain, eye pain, scratch-like marks resembling cat scratches, unexplained bruises, urinary discomfort, joint pain. Do you have any recommendations for the future? What treatment and for how long? Do I have to follow a diet? Wouldn't it be better to take rifampicin? Thank you so much !

Dr. Daniel Cameron what would you suggest in place of Zithromax?

American medicine's inability to accept the presence of vector- borne illness all around us, causes millions of American's the most confounding & frustrating healthcare experiences. Some neglected & marginalized patients have taken their own lives, due to the neuropsychiatric symptoms & the frustration caused by entrenched adherence to obsolete medical algorithm paradigms that deny the existence of chronic vector borne diseases. All of us would benefit from 16S rRNA molecular diagnostic analysis of our bone marrow, CSF, synovial fluid and FFPE archived biopsy samples, to accurately determine the etiology of our chronic illnesses, by first quickly confirming or ruling out vector borne diseases. It appears to me that the American Medical Industry's (IDSA) confounding roadblocks to accurately ascertaining a patient's illness(es) should be eliminated by the new HHS Director RFK Jr's focus on "Chronic Illnesses", by employing advanced 16S rRNA molecular diagnostic analysis to rule out or confirm chronic vector borne illnesses. HHS should mandate that the medical insurance industry utilize 16S rRNA molecular diagnostic analysis to quickly determine the etiology of chronic illness patients, to lower the cost of healthcare and patient suffering. The technology is available, why is the American medical Industry not utilizing 16S rRNA molecular diagnostic analysis to rule in or out vector borne illnesses?

My question did she have any vaccines after? Did she have a C-Section. I always wonder if the Tdap vaccine opened Pandora’s box again after I delivered. My eye lid drooped and so did my mouth slightly, my doctors couldn’t explain it back then. Within 4 months after I delivered had to see a Neurologist my whole right side would go numb and I just felt completely off. Usual blood tests no answers but every year I had more and more symptoms pop up, no one, not even me thought of a Lyme test because when you were treated back then for Lyme, you were told one cycle of antibiotics and it is gone. Within 2 and a half years the joint pain in my wrists, knees and elbows was becoming more than an occasional issue. I Saw Rhuematology was xrayed and some bloodwork was done, I was told I had lymphoma. Which I knew was absurd. One week later the doctor retracted the diagnosis and put me on 50,000 units of Vit D without any explanation, never saw him again the next Rhuematology consult was even worse.

Looking back, my hair was falling out after I had my daughter. I was so hot in the hospital that I had my room to freezing they had to take my little baby and go warm her up in the nursery I was pouring sweat like crazy now I know it was babsisa sweats etc..

My symptoms started within a few months postpartum, beginning with Bells Palsy the day after I gave birth. I’ve been treating now for 4 years
