I have neuro Lyme etc. 29 + yrs, not sure about co's, my thyroid had Hashimoto (just had cancer remove it all), HHV6, Ebstein barr, stomach ulcers, Hypopara-thyroid (RARE) and extremely low fasting blood sugar (40-50's) Hypoglycemic. I understand autoimmune diseases can cause all of these. Does anyone else have endocrinology problems like this? I appreciate your input, Shar

Hi Shar,
I have Hashimoto's, have had stomach ulcers, and low blood sugar. Although I will probably be on thyroid meds the rest of my life, many of my other probelms have cleared up with treatment for lyme and co-infections.
I do see an alternative doctor who has put me on a vitamin (Vanadyl Sulfate) that I was deficent in. He also told me deficiency can be linked to cardiovascular disease and low blood sugar probelms.
So far vitamin seems to be helping.
Good luck to you.

Thanks Beverly, I too have been on vitamin therapy, I just feel so confused by what symptoms are which disease. Just went off IV abx, and I already feel better, so I guess I was herxing a lot. I'm feeling like Lyme is responsible for much of my illnesses. thanks again abd take care.

I have Factor V Leiden, Granuloma Annulare, Hashimoto's, Epstein-barr, HHV6A, Hiatial Hernia, and Lyme. I thought I had CFS for over 19 years until I had a IgeneX test this spring that came back positive for Lyme. What a shock!!! Kathy
