There is a patch of lost flesh on the back of each hand about 1 1/2" by 1 inch wide, but only a millimeter or so deep, next to a tendon,between thumb and 1st finger. I assume the lyme ate it. Now I can feel and even see a muscle loss spot on upper arm between shouldr muscle area and mid-arm biceps area (I don't know the correct terms).
What's going on? I'm in New England.

Me too on the hands. I don't have an explanation for it.

I had that and then it stopped getting worse but never got it back- NOT a good sign!!! My hnads are still bony- I hope you are having aggressive treatment from a good LLMD!!!
