<human>: Hello. Ive had chronic fatigue/Lyme disease for 8 years. Got sick at 13 and Im 21 now. I was on anti biotics for 8 months with moderate relief. However when I got on the paleo diet and started supplementing high doses of zinc and b6 as recommended by a naturopath I felt 90% better within weeks. Im not sure why though. Is there any connection between the two supplements and disease?
<bot>: Dear friend, Greetings from Chat Doctor. I read your question . You were diagnosed to have Lyme disease . It is due to rare bacteria borrelliia ... it is transmitted through tics ... it could affect mainly joints (mimics rheumatoid arthritis), nerves and heart too ... treatment : antibiotics are primary doxycycline is preferred...in addition, since it involves nerves it may cause nerve damage to prevent that we usually supplement B12, folic acid, B6, and minerals... please take care of your diet take more of green leafy vegetables, fruits, and protein rich diet you will be alright soon ... THANK YOU
