HI Bethany, Well congratulations on being able to name that many of your symptoms!! LOL!! I would get tired of typing before I get any where near finished with my list of symptoms!! LOL!

Those symptoms could be from several of the tick-borne infections, but I'm not sure what you're asking here. Could you tell us the question you would like answered? Or are you just posting this in response to another post?

Sorry, brain cloud. I have been losing train of thought lately. Are these all lyme symptoms? I have a few things going on at the moment and distingishing what symptoms pertain to what has been hard for me.

Well, the positive WB tells us that you have Lyme Disease!

Other than that, yes, right down to the forgetting that there was a question you wanted to ask, all of those symptoms can be attributed to one of the common tick-borne infections.

Lyme usually isn't the only infection someone will have, it's usually accompanied by other tick-borne infections such as Bartonella, Babesia, Ehrlichia, or other ones.

If you haven't yet, it would be beneficial for you to read through our "New to Lyme? Start Here!" thread at the top of the forum. It's full of really important information and important links, as well as symptom lists for the more common tick-borne infections. It'll get you started on learning so much about your infections.

I would also suggest that you get started detoxing, as it's the toxins that are produced by these infections that drive our symptoms (www.encognitive.com/node/5768).
In the "New to Lyme?" thread - third post down, I believe - you will find a post on detoxing while you have these infections. It doesn't take anything fancy or expensive - just Epsom Salts and hydrogen peroxide works well for most of us! But be sure to follow the guidance given - staying in the water too long or getting the water too hot will create a herx (Jarrisch-Herxheimer reaction) which is an increase of symptoms and sometimes it can include new symptoms. Please be sure to do all of the detoxing suggested, as this will help your body and your healing.

Take your time and ask the questions that you need to in order to understand the information here - there are no dumb questions if you are honestly wanting to learn!!! We are all here to help you along the way!! smilewinkgrin
