Hi,
So here is my situation. Around January of 2008 i got a bad flu and cold. As soon as Flu started my entire body started hurting and i had Muscle Twitching in my legs. Flu symptoms went away but i will have muscle twitching all over my body. Also I have tinnitus (ear ringing), muscle spasms and pain, and about a month ago i started to have Eye Floaters. There are around 5-10 in each eye. Please help me if you can, i would appreciate it.

PM sent with corrected address and phone # of Dr. G who is now in Belle Haven, VA on the Eastern Shore. He's listed incorrectly on the Lyme Disease Association Doctor Referral page as being in Parksley, VA.
