Got diagnosed with lyme in June 2015. After taking doxycycline for 6 weeks my doctor said that I was fine. Now after one and half months later I started developing numbness in my fingers in the left hand. I wake up because of the pain and numbness. Now the doctor is saying I might have carpal tunnel but my hands were just fine until a week ago and denies it has anything to do with lyme. I did not have any neurological problems in my hands earlier.
Did anyone here experience similar numbness and can you please share what you did to overcome your numbness in the fingers. I am so scared.

Hon,

I'm sorry to tell you this but, you need to be back in treatment.

I developed numbness after going off doxy ala my PCP - my signature tells the rest of my story.

Are you seeing a LLMD? If not, please get in to see one ASAP. We can help you find one and the best way for that to happen would be for you to start a new thread titled "Looking for LLMD in (insert larger city near you)".

Since appointments with LLMD's often involve a long wait, you might want to get started on an herbal protocol. We can help you with that as well.

Please let us know what you think you'd like to do and we'll take things from there.

Take a deep breath....
