Had extreme belly pain and seizure like activity and ended up going to the ER.
Cat scan results shows evidence of Mesenteric Panniculitis.
Mesenteric is the tissue connecting the small intestine to the back of the abdominal wall. Panniculitis is inflamation.
Been treated for lyme and coinfections for 5 years by LLMD but have never had any intestinal problems.
Has anyone found this to be linked with lyme?

I have been diagnosed with Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome. Is this similar?
