Hi all!
I am new to this forum/new to the disease in general. about
4 weeks ago I was having odd trouble with my legs. They seemed heavy and weak. And to beat it all, I was SO very tired. I couldn't keep my eyes
open to save my life. I went to the doctor for blood work, because I thought it was a vitamin deficiency. Two days late I found that my tests showed a recent positive Lyme disease.
Since then, I have been taking Doxycycline 100mg/twice daily for about
9 days. However, I feel as though this is actually making me worse. I have an odd ache in my legs when I am sitting with my legs stretched out/the back of my knees seems swollen/I am constipated/and I have off an on weak legs. Example, all day I was fine until tonight when I took my dose of Doxy. I sat down to do Homework and about
two hours later get up, and boom I am weak again.
I have read that weakness in the legs is a later stage of Lyme, however I am in the early stage. Has anyone experienced this before? I am so worried.
Please help!
Sincerely,
ticked off
