hey everyone, I came to this support group before on a different screen name, i couldn't remember mine for crap.. CRS syndrome. Well, im 21 now and all of a sudden i got bursitis in my hip.. now i didnt think anything of it until my chriopractor said something to me about it possibly being my lyme again. basically a lightbulb appeared. So anyway, i've been off IV treatment for almost a year now. i went to my GP today and hes testing me.. if im positive i go back to my lyme doc. Im not happy. I find myself with a short temper again, and its getting worse, i don't really want to talk to my boyfriend on the phone cause he can tell when im not happy and im getting ****ed off at the dumbest things. I'm sure this has happened to others before. I just think i need not talk to anyone right now until i get myself back on treatment. This is so hard for me cause i was thinking it was gone. Just need some support.

Hang in there, girlfriend!! You're going to get through this A-OK!! I do hope your PCP is going to run a Western Blot through Igenex??
If he/she runs the regular cr**** ELISA, then you will likely show a negative even if you have it.
Actually, Lyme is a clinical dx, so if you are having symptoms again, I would just get treated.
BACK!!!

That must be very dissappointing to have to face the possibility of more LD treatment.
At least you have some experience to draw from, as well as this support group. I have learned a lot since I have been participating here.
Take care,

Hummmmm 21 and bursitis? Suspicious. CRS? Sounds like me! But I call it my lyme brain.
Please go back to your lyme doc. Positive or negitive tests..... 'cause it sure sounds like lyme.

Yep its me korinne21 lol heya guys!

Get OUTTA here! Hey Kori!!! I remember you! I also remember you NOT getting enough treatment, and after you stopped your IV your doc recommended NO orals.
I also remember you charging back to work, prolly long before you shoulda!
Anway - what others said: Don't wait for a test to be positive. Just get treated. Find an LLMD. Other docs will say "post lyme syndrome" - RIGHT.
Anyway, welcome back!
Michelle

hey michelle.. yep your right, doc didnt follow me up with orals at all. Yep im back to work now after getting outa drug rehab, i also wonder if drug dependency has anything to do with lyme. Considering the fact that i have real bad anxiety from lyme.. hmmm.
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Hey Koryn! Good to know it's REALLY YOU!!
I would think that anxiety and depression from Lyme causes ALOT of drug and alcohol dependency.
