Hi everyone,

Does anyone have neurological symptoms predominantly on one side of the body? My left side gets most of the tinging, twitching, burning, while my right side seems--believe it or not--a bit stiff, like it is becoming slightly spastic (spastic in the sense like the muscles are actually tighter).

Am I the only one in this? My doc, Doc L in Pawling New York, referred me to a study in which a researcher concluded that Lyme MIGRATES from the bite through all the tissues--it doesn't just travel by blood. Which means people off have lateral symptoms. Evil disease.

My other questions are:

Has anyone had burning in just ONE part of the their body? Since taking one dose of flagyl, I now have on and off burning in just ONE LEG. I read on this forum most people have burning on both sides. Does this ring any bells?

The one piece of good news to encourage you all is that since taking just two days of flagyl, I have only had two short stabbing pains in my teeth in 17 days--that is a record for me. So But I will be switching to Samento and Banderol from flagyl because flagyl was so tough for me to tolerate.

THANKS

It is very common to have certain Lyme symptoms dominate one side of the body.

My LLMD clinically dx'd me with Lyme due to the Bells Palsy he noted on the left side of my face.

And, during treatment, my left leg went numb at times as did my left hand. I also had times when the left side of my face would go numb. Thankfully, those symptoms seem to be part of my past.

The buzzing sensations I've had/have are mostly in my left knee.

I also have symptoms that are bilateral....

And, I've been taking Samento and Banderol for the past month (and took my last dose of abx a week ago Monday). I had quite the herx when I got up to 3 drops each and had to stop for a few days until the herx subsided.

I only reached the full 30 drops of each a week ago Monday and am thrilled that my symptoms have improved. I feel less toxic now (and didn't realize I'd been feeling toxic before until I began feeling less toxic lol)

Hope you do well with the switch!

Unilateral symptoms are normal with Lyme and co.

My left side has been worse overall regarding neurological symptoms. Although lately, I have had bilateral sciatica (from my low back down the backs of my legs).

When my symptoms exploded, I had lots of numbness and tingling in my left leg / foot and arm / hand.

I have had burning in one spot. In between my shoulders blades is a bug spot for burning.

My nerve pain is on my upper left side of body, but my right leg "buzzes" - definitely not equal symptoms on both sides.

My left jaw/side of face has the tingling/pain - not my right.

Definitely each side has some different symptoms.

Tinidazole can be a substitute for Flagyl if it's being used for cyst-busting.

Hey Mylyme,

I've had symptoms on and off my whole life, but when I got really sick 14 years ago, I felt like a line was drawn down the middle of my body. My left side was MUCH more affected than my right.

Everything's evening out on the natural treatment I'm doing, which im thrilled about. Glad to see you'll be switching to herbs--you may consider cats claw instead of samento, much more economical..

I agree----evil disease

neurological symptoms on one side of the body(its called neuropathy), is usually indicative of left side of the brain damage/defect, have you gotten blood test or mri, to see if there are any damage?
