I have had various symptoms over last three years creep up but since August they are more consistent with flares.
I have had 5 falls that start with dizziness felt in my eyes with drunk like gait,.

My symptoms include: muscle twitching, double , blurry and loss of vision; headaches, stiff neck with pain and back of head pain; numbness, tingling and prickly sensations in hands, feet and legs accompanied by limb heaviness; nystagmus and hyperflexia with achy, painful joints causing disruptive sleep.

I’ve been diagnosed with mild neuro cognitive impairment, I forget how to do basic math and have short term memory problems. White hyperintensities have been found in brain.I had a tick embedded when I was 10, 30 Year’s ago.

MS and lupus seemed to be ruled out. I tested positive on Western Blot IgM 41 and 23 and IGenex IgM 18,
23-25, 34, 39 I, 41 and Western Blot IgG 30 and 41.

Not diagnosed by Kaiser or UHC. Outside MD prescribed Minocycline for one month. Symptoms decreased greatly.

Now off antibiotics. Symptoms back and worsening.

Thank you for any feedback.

Welcome to Lyment Isadora

Get your finances in order, Lyme is expensive to treat.
Start a folder that contains everything medical, blood tests, all doctors visit, speciality tests, all medicines.
Start a journal to moniter all symptoms. This helps to track all reactions to different treatment protocols.
Expect a long chunk of time to get well. Atleast 1 year, probably longer. Patience is needed.

I will send you a private message. Good luck to you.
