New vision issue-Just herxing????

Hi everyone, I just need some reassurance that this is just herxing ,and that I will get through it, scared me pretty good.
This afternoon/early evening I started having lots of various twitching in body , ears/head felt blocked, itchy and biting sensations,head numbness, both legs low warm tingling type sensations,(Have had all those before but fortunately those have been very low level and only for maybe an hour or so a day for last month.)

But the new symptom was in my lower field of vision grayish cloudy areas showed up. It happened a few times over 15 minutes but ok now.

Im currently taking Azithromycin 250 mg 1/day,Malorone 250-100 Tab UD 2/day

This morning I increased Tinctures to 5 drops from taking 4 drops a day for the last 3 weeks.
Sida acuta
Cats Claw -Unacaria rhynchophylla
scutellaria baicalenses
Salvia miltiorrhiza
Japanese knot weed
Andrographis

I take epsom baths every other day and drink lemon juice, and take milk thistle.

The new vision symptoms just really bothered me. Thanks for letting me vent and get all this out.
The other thing is yesterday I was almost symptom free all day except for a few minor thumps and twitches for a few minutes. I was so happy yesterday. Sincerely,Jo

My vision problems were shadow people, black bugs on our white walls, weird things like lint in my eyes that if I tried to follow them they moved in that direction and blurry vision.

I immediately went to my ophthalmologist and he said he saw a drusen and sent me to a retinologist. I am fine and we are monitoring the drusen, but everything else was fine.

I hated the vision problems. I am a photographer and I paint pictures so my eyes are super important.

My suggestion is go and have your eye checked out. You will feel much better and you, hopefully, will say like I did. Just another gosh darn lyme symptom!!

Thanks everyone for all your support!!1 I keep losing power, strong straight line winds came through in Massachusetts.


So If I dont respond sorry.


Im on probiotics 2 times a day.

Only doing those things listed for detox.


Thanks I will go to eye doctor in case not lyme related.

Seems to have gone away for now... I had other vision issues but different in beginning (september) when in hospital for neuro head lyme.


Thanks Jo

Hey Jo. I had new eye symptoms a few months back also....
Ocular migraines- which are peripheral waves lines , mine were without headaches as is Common. And then I had pressure behind eye sockets . Which for awhile I thought were sinus but lasted months and weren't... Then I had dry eyes with stringy discharge for weeks...


I thought the worst especially from the visual disturbances...
Even my natro didn't assume Lyme and infections.

After my research I know it was.

At any rate I don't think I changed anything I was doing so I kinda of thinking it may be s coinfections rearing up. Or maybe the Lyme just relocated or who knows... I haven't treated for any co infections as I haven't tested positive but am sure I have them as I've been infected twice.. Just now getting to understand the bigger picture. Kind of.

So I wouldn't worry. It is common with Lyme and co infections for that to PPP up. I researched it a lot as I thought I was stricken with another horrible illness. I tend to think that way with every new and even old symptoms.

oh Hi Lightlife,
Thanks for sharing your experiences. I know its probably Lyme.

Hope your ok from all this wind we had 1 and 1/2 of hail up here too.
Take care ,Jo

HiYa...Yes was in bed with window open and the wind and rain came right in. Take care And get some rest.

Hello, You can go to a million eye doctors and they will all tell you that your eyes are perfectly fine.

The reason is that with lyme disease, the vision problems are not in our eyes, (with the exception of floaters). Our vision problems are in our brains. There are areas in our brain that interpret what our eyes see. These areas of the brain are getting eaten by spirochetes, which manifest as vision problems.

I'm reading this...and thinking "Wow...what warriors we are."

I mean really...all the crap we go through...and just tough it out for the most part and hope for the best that it's all 'just lyme'.

I'll be ready for the nut-farm when this is all done.
