Hi Guys I'm back (atheana) It has been quite awhile since I posted.
I have stopped my vitamin regime and my brain fog has come back big time.
I did the test for Hpu/Kpu, and they rec that I stop all vitamins. Anyway the good news is, it was negative.
I do have a question for all you knowledgeable people.
I am going in for surgery to have a biopsy done on a lump that has been in my groin for over a year. I just thought it was a swollen lymph node, but I feel it has been there too long.
I use to get lymphatic massages, but now it doesn't even drain.
My wbc and rbc are both low.I have a bloated stomach( I think candida)nausea, sweating and lower back pain.
went to the ER Tues with ab pain and vag bleeding (have not had period in 3 yrs. They said it was constipation.
It's amazing how all our test come back negative.
My question is. Should I go thru this biopsy or is it just another sym of Lyme?
I would also, like to thank all of the wonderful Lymies that put so much work into this web.

did you have a ultrasound for your uterus..that is easier than a biopsy?

Whatever test you do, don't put off finding out what's going on. Not all symptoms are always Lyme. If it is, ok, but you need to be sure.

Thanks guys, I have had a ultrasound of my groin region and a cs of my abdomin. I have been reading up about biopsies and of course anything invasive is not the best way.
I don't know why he can't do a needle biopsy instead of having to cut me open. I did ask and I think he said he needs to get more tissue.
I have been off my feet for a few days and now I don't even need a pain med. The lups is still there. I am so confused, but I suppose it will put my mind at rest.
I am pretty sure it will come back with nothing showing and the doc's will think I am a hypo.
Thanks again!
