Alternatives to Surgery

I know how it feels to be in pain, desparate, fed up with doctors... and the medical system in general. 

I've been through the ringer, myself.  I had my tonsils removed at age 5.  My appendix at age 25.  And I was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2017.  I've experienced back pain that feels like getting stabbed with a knife.  My Lyme disease test results came back with "5 hot bands" when you only need 2 hot bands to be considered Lyme positive.  My Lyme progressed to the point where I had a 102-degree F fever and a case of meningitis (unofficially).  I didn't want to go to the hospital - and didn't - because I knew the only solution would be IV-antibiotics.
