Does anyone have these times when you have all over pain, and it feels like you have this almost toxic feeling running through your veins? It is so hard to describe..It just feels like this nasty painful energy all over...(for me especially in my arms and legs) Sound familiar to anyone? Laura

I was diagnosed with Bab and Ehrlicliosis just a couple of weeks ago. I have been having those same symptoms, really bad last night. Could not sleep took 2 aleve,2 simply sleeps, and advil pm. Did nothing for me. Am going to see my doctor tomorrow morning, called yesterday and he told me not to take my meds (mepron, Doxy) till I see him. I am supposed to go back to work on Monday but I don't think I can handle it.I look fine and healthy but can't function.

Yes, but not all the time. Thank God. Mine happen in the night. Painful in arms and legs. Last week though I had it in the afternoon and evening.
I thought it was restless leg syndrome when I started seeing the ad commercials, but I also had it in my arms??????
I average just one episode a month, but oh my.
Pam
PS to Sharon, I have not been on abx for over 4 yrs, so I believe it's just another sx of whatever????

Yes laura early on in my disease and for some time afterwards.
Sharonp, please don't do that combination of medications again. Alleve is nothing more than an anti-inflammatory and so is advil which would
probably help to bring out your symptoms, making you feel much worse.
You lowered your immune system. Not to mention putting great stress on your liver! Yikes!
You have to read the lables that come with even over the counter medications. Too much of the same or similar O/C meds can kill you. Not to mention the mepron doxy combo.
You keep taking that kind of combo and you won't have lyme long...you won't have a liver or kidneys for long either, if you live.
Please be careful,
FXD

laura, feel it all the time but lately I can even "smell" infection toxins through my skin. I think I stink, llmd didn't notice it.
My husband says I don't stink when I ask. I'm just feeling like a waste dump.

I get that, too. I hurt all over, but when asked what hurts, I can't specifically say. It's like every cell hurts.
Drinking lemon or lime water helps me a lot with that. Also, FIR sauna and coffee enemas. Detox!
