Unfortunately, this is VERY possible and VERY likely. I'm not a dr, but I've been around the Lyme block more than a few times!

How long did you take antibiotics when you were 15? your orthopedic dr is a very smart man.

WELCOME To LYMENET

Here's more goodys! A typical response to newcomers.

Hi and WELCOME! Get a LLMD or at least Dr that is willing to learn about lyme. Borrelia Burgdorferi is a clinical diagnosis, based on symptoms and on your response to treatment. Good Luck, bumpy road ahead.

Post for a LLMD in Seeking a Doctor. Ps remember I am not a Dr, just a fellow sufferer.
