I know we have a lot of same symptoms. It's interesting about the pinched nerve. I actually read one of the lyme symptoms is radiculopathy - but just recently.
I was also recently told I now have frozen shoulder.

I see that you are on zithromax. Is that the only pharmaceutical antibiotic you are taking? And how long have you been on it...and when did you see results...or is it too soon?

I'm on doxy, but I don't think I can do it with the sun. I've been wearing sunscreen, and covering up as much as I can, but I still seem to be sun-sensitive.

I've been on Zithromax for 12 weeks now, and its the only abx so far. I see my LLMD Tuesday and we're going to talk about throwing something new in the mix - she likes to stick with one abx for 3 months and then reevaluate. I've seen MAJOR improvements. I still have symptoms and peaks and valleys, but I'm doing so much better, so I'm happy with my treatment so far. I think I began having some good days after about 7/8 weeks. I had one really good day after 1 week of abx, then had a major herx on day 10, followed by a couple of good days.

If you have to be in the sun I would definitely look into Zithromax. That's why my LLMD chose it - I can't avoid the sun right now w/ the little one and living in FL... This little boy likes to get outside! :)
