There have been a few discussions on sleepiness here. Both fatigue, and sleepiness are symptoms of Lyme. I have huge problems was sleepiness- totally unrelated to fatigue. There are days where I almost feel like I have narcolepsy!
Are you on antibiotics? Because a lot of them cause a dry mouth.

Yes, sleepiness/fatigue can be Lyme symptoms.
The feelings of being pinched/jabbed, my LLMD said are more likely babesia.

nope. i'm still in the stage of knowing what's happening on me. i've been having chronic symptoms for few months already.
been with so many tests and doctors, all normal in findings except with bacteria in stomach (endoscopy) which was treated last august.
i had weird symptoms and trying to ask here with different posts if this sounds lyme since so many tests have done and i my symptoms are progressing as months passed by..
since im here in the philippines in which lyme is non-existent as far as MD's here are concern, i'm trying to find it by myself and help myself feel better and ask advices.
i hope i get a better picture on this so that i'll focus on this disease since it also had similar symptoms with other bacteria or infectious disease.

babesia? a co-infection right? or another kind of disease?

by the way, since i already opened up all my symptoms, does lyme really like this?
it never lets up, i mean the symptoms are progressing and i always feel those symptoms 24hrs a day, and much worse in when i wake up in the morning.
this might be an eye opener here in my country if ever i had this and be treated. hopefully i will and recover fast.
if i was not treated, is there a possibilty i get worst? no more test is being asked by my MDs since i already did all the exams they knew that can determine what my illness is..
as ive said its all normal, HIV, lupus, MS, thyroid, etc all ruled out.
im suffering everyday and the days are so slow for me..
