I have had pins & needles in my arms/hands, legs/feet for 3 years now and feet/leg/thigh pain no matter what medication I am on,also,quick jabs of pain in arms and legs and leg twitches, tongue feels like it's numb/buzzing. Diagnosed with chronic lyme pain and only on treatment for a year, does anyone know if this will go away and is this considered a type of paraylasis?

Doesn't sound like paralysis. You can have muscle weakness with Lyme, but I think all of the symptoms you mentioned are pretty common 'round here. What is your treatment looking like?

was on doxy, biaxin xl and plaquenil, and quinine sulfate, just changed a couple months ago to just quinine and tetrycline and still no better.

HI Your symptoms are common to Lyme. They are my primary symptoms. You are welcome to email me
I think that the problem is nuerotoxins.
Peace, BJG

I still have some of these too. It is not a big deal but also would like to know when they go away.

My LLMD said that while bb can cause neuropathy, coinfections can do the same. It took a few months with Bart Specific abx to help lessen these unpleasant sxs.
