Hello, I'm from Warren, MI. I've had some health problems for the past few years, and I'm starting to become suspicious of whether they could have been caused from a tick that had been attached on my a decade ago. Years ago, after a weekend in a rural area, I woke up with a tick on my head. I was about 10, so I didn't know what to do. My mom ended up sleeping in that day, but around late morning she noticed I had a tick on me, and she helped me remove it. We didn't think anything of it.
However, the past few years, I have had a lot of negative neurological problems, and doctors have had a hard time figuring out the cause. I also have had endocrine and muscle problems, and pains in my face, jaw, left eye, and head. My migraines with aura and the extreme eye pain that I have when reading have been very disruptive to my college studies, and I took a medical leave. I have seen optometrists, ophthalmologists, neurologists, and dentists, yet none of these doctors have helped me. However, chiropractors have helped me by providing supplements for a kidney infection, and a yeast infection in the liver that I have. Do you think these symptoms might be caused by lyme, even though I had the tick about a decade ago?
Can you recommend any LLMD's not too far from Warren, or Sterling Heights, MI?
Also, do you have any suggestions on affording LLMD's? It looks like a lot of them don't accept insurance coverage.
Thank you for the help with this.
