I have had trouble with all of my joints as I'm sure most of you have.

I was getting a chest X-ray and long story short, they found that I had a cyst on my rotator cup, along with a torn rotator cup.

I also have some kind of a lump on my elbow, which is making my joint very wide and is making my veins pop out on my forearm.

Then about a month ago, I got one on my wrist. It reminds me of a ganglion type lump. Now my other elbow is starting to hurt a lot.

It has become very difficult for me to wash my hair, comb my hair, put on pants, and hold things.

I drop everything. I was pulling glass bowls out of the cabinet and dropped them, glass fell all over me.

Does anyone else have this problem? Do you think it's lyme related? I watched this video, but still wasn't sure if the "lyme cysts" would get very big.

Mine seem to be about marble sized, from what I can feel on my wrist.

I too believe in ligament/tendon cysts. I believe

it can even be bone cysts caused by the borrelia

and other organisms. And yes the lymph too. For

those who take over 2 years to diagnosis I have no doubts.
