Hi Lymester, my symptoms are: feel like an 80 year old, have trouble with the stairs, trouble putting on a jacket, hips, shoulders, elbows, knee, ache and not all at the same time, loss of appetite, loss of weight(25lbs), loss of sex drive, get frusterated real easy and before i was easy going, trouble concentrating, eratated in group or when 2 people are talking, sores break out like pimples but never pop they just slowly go away, muscle twitches(sometimes it is only 3 twitches and then it stops in that area and somewhere else will start), cold all the time(like to the bone), hands turn purple with a slight change in temp. muscle cramps, locking fingers, numb feet, no energy. And before I never sat down playing ball, hockey, golf, squash, coaching kids, working 70+ hrs at job and started up and owned a fast food restaurant and a wind energy corporation, 4 kids, I mean alot going on and now I spend most of my day on the couch or alone. My doctor is not positive it is lyme, but he does not really understand lyme, he does acknowledge that it is some sort of bacterial infection and could be lyme. I have just stopped the docy on sunday and I already have 5 or 6 sores running down my neck and shoulder all on the left side which is normally my worst side, i think it is herxing because I am also aching alot.
Thanks for taking the time to chat and further inform me of all the options and just some good information.
I look forward to hereing from you soon.
Take Care
