As my lyme symptoms have eased, and my bart symptoms have increased, I'm starting to wonder if fibromyalgia is lurking there too? Has anyone done treatment for fibromyalgia following lyme treatment?
My worse symptom is and always has been muscle pain. With little physical energy expended, I can start hurting. I helped carry in and set up our tree last night, and started hurting within a couple of hours.
I don't have the fibromyalgia tender points, but I do have bilateral muscle pain and it's near doings. Worse spots are feet, glute area into thigh and upper arms.
I know lyme is sometimes misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia. All my tests were "normal" except for Igenix.
Any thoughts appreciated!
The muscle pain could be a lingering lyme symptom..or a bart symptom.
Mine was from lyme - I believe - because it went away with lyme abx - prior to treating my bart.
fibromyalgia - doesn't really have a 'test' to determine it - you have lyme - causing the 'fibromyalgia' symptoms. (or bart...)
