I've had this awful mid back pain since I started seeing a chiropractor last year.

It still nags at me a lot.

When my lyme is worse, so is the pain.

Does anyone know any thing I can do to ease the pain?

I thin maybe the chiropractor some how messed my mid back up since it was never an issued until I started seeing him.

I have HORRIFIC back pain as well. This is one of main symptoms. In fact, sometimes it hurts so bad I want to cry, and I'm not a crier.

I try and have someone rub it for me. If no one is around I take a warm/hot shower. And I also do alot of stretching. It doesn't make it totally go away, but it sure does help.

Once in a while, when flaring, I get mid to low back pain. It's not a muscular, skeletal, tenden type pain, but more like a bruised injury. I find it so strange, moderately painful. Feels like I was a punching bag.

A non-LL chiropractor can do damage if they twist any part of the spine too quickly. Even an "activator" (which is usually gentle) can be too much for some tender backs.

How to find an ILADS-educated LL:

N.D. (Naturopathic Doctor);

L.Ac. (Acupuncturist);

D.Ay. (Doctor of Ayurvedic Medicine);

D.O.M. (Doctor of Oriental Medicine);

Integrative / Holistic M.D., etc.

Links to many articles and books by holistic-minded LL doctors of various degrees . . .

You can compare and contrast many approaches.

Nettles is excellent for control of joint pain & prevention of joint damage associated with Lyme/coinfections, per Buhner in his book...
