3 years ago i was bitten by a tick. Got the target or bulls eye rash. Was put on Doxycycline. Thought that took care of the problem. Now i am learning that is not always the case. Since i have been diagnosed with Thyroid issues, Palps. Eptopics, and a whole lot of health symptoms i have not been able to understand. Until now.
In my quest to find what is going on with me...I have learned many people with Lyme disease are not cured with a 21 day course of antibiotics. And that the symptoms return. Masked as a hundred other illnesses. Whats more it hides. It will go dormant and then come out of nowhere. And their doesnt seem to be a test here in the US that can verify it. Only in certain stages. I will feel great for a week or a month and then suddenly a lot of new or returning symptoms appear. I will say..my recent blood work showed a rise in ig Absolute Red blood cell count and hemoglobin. All in which produce antibodies to fight off inflamation and disease. Sadly there is no valid way of proving this. If you have ever had lyme disease, i suggest you take a good hard look at your symptoms. Thyroid issues are one of those things lyme disease triggers. Along with Anxiety hot flashes..IBS. And it goes on and on!!! If you have had it look up PTLD. Thats Post treatment Lyme Disease. This is all based on my experience. I am just suggesting for some of you there could be a REAL EXPLANATION for your symptoms you have not considered.
