I read an old thread on here about this feeling of weakness that's put some in wheelchairs.

I am feeling no where near that weak, but am wondering if this is caused by lyme or the fact I've been on neurontin for a month. I've backed down and have been off it for two nights (Iwas up to 900 mg/night) It was making me very depressed and worthless.

In addition, I've been taking ambien and clonazapam only occasionally. Could all this be amkig me feel like mush. It doesn't get better as the day goes by.

I feel like I'm just a pile of bones with nothing to hold them up. Also still very depressed aftre being off neurontin for three days.

I've had lyme for a long time, but never had this degree of feeling so sluggish

I would call your dr and ask if it is the combination of meds you are one they sound strong and if you weaned off the neurontin slow enuf

hope you feel better [group hug]

Neurontin and Xanax could definitely do that to you. Ambien is known to cause despression too.

I agree that you should call your dr.

Also... babesia causes extreme fatigue and weakness.

I hope you find the answer soon!!! [group hug]
