Hi all,

just trying to get some feedback. I have developed some tendonitis on my hannds with mild swelling. Anyone every deal with this? If yes, how so.

My primary told me to put ice on it.

Any suggestions? Also, does this eventually resolve itself? My LLMD didn't seemed to concerned he said it's common with lyme.

Easy for him to say. [Wink]

I had the same symptoms very early in my battle. It was one of the first symptoms to resolve, I would say after a couple of months.

Riverpatrol,
thanks for responding. For me, it's starting to get better. At first,
it was so painful especially when typing at work and using the computer.

For me, it seems to be one of the most annoying. Other things have come and gone. I wish this would leave as well. [Smile]

I haven't had swelling in my hands, but this weekend I have had swelling in my jaw--my TMJ has been HORRIBLE this weekend, and my face was swollen on the left side last night.

It's terrible! I have a headache from it now too, and just generally feeling crappy from the neck up (and in my chest, but that's another issue).

Thank God I see the chiropractor tomorrow!
