I started using propolis tincture directly onto my lesions (leg & face) and both areas started to feel & look a little better. You can also take the propolis tincture in water as a general health tonic. There has recently been some research into the use of apitherapy (the use of products from the hives of honeybees (Apis mellifera) as well as the bees themselves, including their venom, to treat Lyme and a variety of other conditions. Here is a link to an article I read on it;

The other thing I wanted to share is that i have been reading up a lot about therapeutic fasting (water only) as I think the body has an incredible ability to heal itself, if given the proper chance. I recently completed a 2.5 day fast (didn't quite get to my goal of 3 days.... this time) and in the days following, the lesions appear to be healing before my eyes. Considering I have had these lesions for 9 months and they have been extremely slow to heal, my feeling is that the fast gave my immune system a boost and allowed my body to rest from digestion, thereby focusing all it's energy on healing.
I do want to add, if this is something you think you would like to try, please do your research on it first (I wholeheartedly recommend you do!) and always discuss it with your doctor if you are on medication. I am not on medication, only supplements and herbals, and went off everything over the 2.5 days. I am planning to do more of these as I believe in the science behind it, even if only a 24 hour fast every couple of weeks.
Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.
