I just can't really seem to get a handle on it. This year has been the sickest of my life (been unwell for 15) and it is the year that I started Lyme treatment.

I had to go off the tetracycline because of herx or Lyme flair or who knows. Maybe it was too soon after my appendectomy. Started Alinia two days ago instead...Either way this whole week I have:

Diarrhea, nausea, no appetite, weight loss, body pain all over, SKIN PAIN???, headache, feel like I have flu (no fever). Never had the skin pain like this before.. it hurts to touch my own skin. Feels like I have battery acid inside my limbs. Last night was horrific...

Any thoughts?

What if I can't handle abx treatment... is it time for me to try something else or persevere. I feel like this is actually going to kill me. I am not being melodramatic. I am weak, too thin, exhausted, dehydrated and in pain.

Please any advice. I just had stool test to check for cdiff, no results yet.

Please.
Thank you,
RENNY

Might be time to see someone who is integrative. Build the body up first. I have just learned of a wonderful doctor in florida....if you're interested, PM me for details.
