One of the most crazy things about lyme for me is the seemingly random symptoms that occur every day.
I begin each day a new, wondering what the day will bring.
One day it might be neuro pain, the next head aches, the next leg muscles and knee joints.
Today it was the headaches, neuro pain and tonight my jaw has begun to hurt.
How random are your symptoms?

My symptoms are totally random. Each and every day is different. Each and every hour can be different. I have been in treatment since late September, and I just had a herx in which I got new symptoms that I have never experienced in a year and half of dealing with this mess.
The ones that never, ever goes away, however, are the fatigue and the unrestful sleep/lack of sleep. They vary a little, but they are always there.
Hang in there.

It is very common for symptoms to change quickly --
treatment can increase this happening also-Jay-

Thank you for your replies. Over the past year (until I started treatment) my symptoms pretty much were consistent. They had progressed and occasionally a new symptom was added, but once added, it didnt really go away. Since starting treatment my symptoms have become very random from day to day. And as you mentioned, the only "consistent" ones now are the fatigue and nerve pain.
