Fatigue was immediate and then it took about 9-10 months before any other symptoms arose which were headaches and fluey feelings/chills.

Looking back I had been experiencing symptoms for years but the one that really made me sit up and take notice was a painful burning sensation in my left ovarian region; I was convinced it was the big "C" and I was not long for this world, I had the tests that cleared me of ovarian, bowel and breast cancer (yes my breast had started to burn too). After long hours days and weeks of study I narrowed it down to fibromyalgia, CFS or Lyme. I walked into my local clinic, asked for a lyme test that came back positive, the rest as they say is history.

Shoulder pain which spread to my other joints. Felt like I was full of inflammation. I originally thought I had RA. Then many other symptoms started over night.

Mine was essentially just like heat stroke. And that's all we thought it was for a long time. Nausea, fogginess, dizziness/vertigo.

Extreme fatigue, collapsing, dizziness, silent migraines, and chest pain. Muscle aches and pains came much later.

Lyme with Bartonella-

Dizziness, sharp chest pains and heart skipping, ringing in the ears and blurry vision.

1-2 weeks later- anxiety and overwhelming sad feeling with above symptoms.

1-2 weeks later- woke up with my whole body hurting like I had the flu. Few days later joints started hurting.

1-2 weeks later - starting getting tingling in the legs that progressed to arms and then face.

Once the tingling started, I went to see a Dr. about 3 months after getting bitten.

Initial symptoms started about 1.5 months or so after getting bitten.

Later on I started having bad air hunger, night time chills, heels hurting and drenching night sweats.

Sudden vertigo/panic attack while on a relaxing road trip. Worsening panic attacks have followed every 2 weeks since. 6 weeks into this crazy new journey. Feel like I am floating/dizzy all the time. Head pressure. Tinnitus. Constant anxiety. Fatigue.

In retrospect, mild fatigue and joint aches. I basically thought I was having a bit of a sinus infection and some aches brought on by my Crohn's disease. It was a couple of months later that I realized something was wrong when I started getting depressed, having more fatigue and aches, getting tingling sensations, started getting some speech problems, and felt like my balance wasn't as good. I still had no idea what was going on at the time, though.
