Hello,
I need help finding a Lyme Literate Medical Doctor in Knoxville, TN or Houston Tx bc i travel there a lot.
I am 28 y/o female. My first symtom (fall 2011) was a panic attack which was diagnosed as anxiety. I took anxiety medications for about one year. During that same time I started having tingling and numbness on my hands, then knee tightness and pain. Now two years later I also have lower back pain, foot pain at my heel, wake up with stiffness on my hands, always tired. The best way to put it is : I know my body and I feel like something is not right but dont know what it is. The weird part is that all the test are normal and apparently there is nothing wrong. I've gone to medical doctors, physical therapist , hand doctors and all the lab test, x ray and MRI are normal. I dont recall being bit by a tick, havent had the headaches or neck stiffness that most of you mention. I do recall 1-2 cases of fever since 2011 but associated them with reguar cold or flu.
I've been doing a lot of praying to god, to lead me to my diagnosis and lymes has just been popping up diretly and indirectly so I have been looking into it. Then I remembered how my symptoms began after I lived in Fairfield CT for 3 months. I used to do a lot of walking to and from school bc i didnt have a car and it just dawned on me that maybe a tick could of bit me and maybe this is what I have. I have read that Ticks are very prevalent in CT. I really dont know I just want to figure out whats going on with me.
Thank you so much
