I was just wondering if someone could please answer this question: Last wednesday I went to my doctor because I have been experiencing very bad headaches/migraines for the past year (ever since I started birth control). She did a blood test and today told me that everything came back normal but that it showed in the past I have had lymes disease. I was shocked because to my knowledge I have had no symptoms that I could think of and have never been treated for it. Is this something I should worry about? DO alot of people know they don't have lymes and it goes away on its own. Supposedly I dont have it now. Thanks for any information. I just don't want something terrible happen to me 10 years down the road because I never got treated for lymes disease.

Hi Mel and Welcome to Lymenet. I just read your other post about yeast. I would read all the links Lymetoo gave you and listen to her advise.

Good luck to you.

Beverly

Good evening Mel,

I haven't read your other post yet, but wanted to pass on to you some good information about migraines in general. Perhaps this will help some.

Migraines: http://flash.lymenet.org/ubb/Forum3/HTML/009477.html

Just to share my own experience with this symptom...it was one of the first to show up for me after contracting Lyme, CO Tick fever, and now Bartonella.

I dealt with this for many years...nothing would touch this symptom for me until recently when I began taking an Rx specifically for inflamation in the brain.

I do hope that you pursue a lyme posibility, especially if teat results came back showing that 'you have been exposed'!

My very best,
Melanie

Hi Mel,

Consider yourself privileged for detecting evidence of Lyme via a blood test, if the test was not erroneous, that is. It's typically a very elusive pathogen to detect via the common methods.

I have read in the literature of how many folks have shown evidence of previous Lyme encounters, yet have not developed any symptoms or may not even recall being bitten by a tick. Perhaps it depends on the status of the individual's immune system, the duration of the tick bite etc. Do you or have you lived in a tick-infested area?

Kind regards,

Colin {RainmakeR}
