Opinion and information, not medical advice
Lyme Tools shares opinions, personal experience and general information about Lyme disease, Bartonella, Babesia and related topics. It is for education only. It is not medical advice, and it does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any condition.
Talk to your own healthcare professional
Everyone’s situation is different. Please speak to your own doctor or another qualified healthcare professional before you start, change or stop any treatment, herb, supplement or medicine, and before you act on anything you read here. Please do not delay or avoid getting medical care because of something you have read on this site.
Herbs and supplements
“Natural” does not mean “safe”. Herbs and supplements can cause side effects and can interact with prescription medicines, other supplements, surgery, pregnancy, breastfeeding and some health conditions. Tell your doctor and pharmacist what you take. Any doses shown on this site are figures from published sources, shown for reference. They are not a recommendation for you.
Tools, calculators and trackers
The tools on this site, including the symptom lookup, questionnaires, calculators, converters and trackers, are for information and record-keeping. They cannot tell you what you have, how likely anything is, or what you should take.
Protocol dates and timelines
Start and stop dates, charts and timelines show only what you entered. They cannot show whether a herb or supplement helped, did nothing, or caused a problem.
Translated pages
If you use the translation menu, the page is translated automatically by Google. Machine translation can be wrong, especially for medical words and doses. The English text is the original, and you should check anything important with a healthcare professional.
Emergencies
If you think you are having a medical emergency, call 999 (UK) or 911 (US), or your local emergency number, or go to your nearest emergency department. For urgent medical advice in the UK, call NHS 111. If you are struggling with your mental health or thinking about suicide, you can call Samaritans on 116 123 (UK) or call or text 988 (US).
No doctor-patient relationship
Using this site, contacting us or taking part in any community area does not create a doctor-patient or other professional relationship. We cannot give personal medical advice.
Accuracy
We try to keep the information accurate and up to date, but medicine changes and we cannot promise that everything is complete or correct. It may differ from official guidance, so please also check official sources such as the NHS and the CDC.
Other people’s content and links
Opinions shared by other members, and the content of other websites we link to, are not ours, and we are not responsible for them.
Your legal rights
Nothing on this page or in our terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or any other liability that the law does not allow us to exclude, or affects your legal rights.
