Hello;
I saw my dr. today who has suggested that I have lymes disease. She ordered the blood work today. I see from the symptoms that I have most of them except the skin rash.
Is it possible the first symptoms could be numbness in arms and the progressing to the full blown symptoms of
pain in joints and limbs
severe fatigue
severe headaches
sleep disorders
problems with vision
stiff neck
numbness, tingling, burning sensatiions
problems with memory, concentrating,
problems with legs (not being able to lift leg as in climbing stairs) intermittent
pain underneath both ribs
I have been tested for RA, lupus, thyroid, MS ..... all normal
It's not Fibromyalgia - no tender points
I live in Florida near a wildlife reserve where the deer and bear frequently get into our neighborhood. It's possible I was bitten by a tick, but I don't remember it, nor did I get a rash.
