Well its been a very long time since i have been here. Contracted lyme a very long time ago. I havent had treatment in several years. Think while in hospital twice with other life threatening issues my iv i had kinda bumped my lyme out for a bit. BUT lately i have been having the weak shoulder feelings and lack of strength in muscles. I remember having this when i first got lyme. And off and on. Feeling like i cannot hold my head up. I have to sit down. Cant stand long or sit long with out support. Now doc is testing for Mg. Could lyme have given me this or i wonder if lyme is coming back again. Any ideas here Thanks

Lyme can be the cause of MG! And it can be reactivated by the stress of your medical issues, hospital stay, etc.

I was tested for MG before they realized that it was actually lyme. My MG test was negative. I have droopy eyes.... especially when tired or having headaches.
