Can lyme trigger MS. I am feeling like I may have overall weakness along with my other symptoms. I read Dr. Darin Ingels-(The Lyme Disease Solution)profile-he stated he had MS triggered by Lyme. Can this be?

I think i read a couple of papers studying the microbiome that exists in the brain (previously thought to be a sterile environment) in healthy people and those suffering from various diseases of the central nervous system.
as I recall - Borrelia and Chlamydia Pneumonia and mycoplasma species were the microbes most often found in those with MS and Altziemers
so it's not clear if they are in fact causative agents - but the evidence is pointing to some involvement in at least some cases.
I am sure a quick google would bring the studies up.

I'd say yes from what I've heard and read. The MS society is very resistant to hearing this.
