Hi AmandaC.  Numbness and tingling can be symptoms of Lyme, it is included in the symptom list.  I have had this in my hands and feet.

My first symptom was a swollen knee... after that I had tingling and a lot of it. It started in my ankles and moved everywhere. It was awful. I also had an "electricity" type feeling.

Good Luck.

 

I get numbness and tingling in various places. The first time was in my thigh. It has decreased a great deal with treatment for Lyme and babs.

My first symptoms were tingling - face, feet, legs, arms, hands. I took Cymbalta for awhile, before I was diagnosed, and this helped. But it had its trade-offs, mostly increasing the fatigue and making me feel kind of zombie-like. Then when I was finally diagnosed, my primary physician put me on Doxycycline and the tingling started to subside. My husband, who also has Lyme, experienced the same thing - after about five weeks, his tingling started to diminish. That's when I felt certain we did in fact have Lyme disease.

Tcoach, I'm not sure if you realized that this is a really old thread from 9 years ago and none of these members are still active here.

Me too, PK!!!!
