One of the first symptoms that I experienced, was a burning sensation in my stomach and lower abdominal area. It feels like Still suffering with it 3 months later. An endoscope showed minor inflammation in a few spots in my stomach.
Lyme may not be the culprit, so I want to see if anyone else has experienced such a thing.
Thanks!

Just wanted to chime in here--I haven't had this or known anyone with Lyme who had this (not that it doesn't happen...), but I have a friend here who is having the same type of stomach issues.
Docs can't find much except calcium deposits around her spleen.
I urged her to get checked for TBIs if they can't find anything else.
Sorry I can't offer any definitive answers.

I had an upper endoscopy done a year before i got my Lyme Diagnosis. I had documented GERD for years and the endoscopy showed i had inflammation all over my entire stomach (gastritis).
I had been taking prescription Reflux meds for 4 years, and yet the syptoms were not under control.
My LLMD said the Reflux and Gastritis was caused by Lyme Disease. My stomach continues to be the worst problem, and I have been nauseaous every day for the last 2 years. But it will get better...

I get this too. I sometimes feel like it is on my skin of my stomach/abdomin not inside.

Thanks for the helpful info.
Cockapoo1996: I feel like it's my skin (or just beneath my skin) as well. It feels as though my stomach is a radiator!
