I am still suffering with these problems.

Symptoms:

Muscle Loss - (left sternomastoid muscle, left jaw muscle, left swallowing muscles, tongue deviated to the left).
left eye feels swullen and twitches and it watering.
Feet and ankle swelling.

Not sure any of this is from Lyme yet, gonna find out thursday from Dr. H if he thinks I have Lyme.

Western Blot Looked like this:

IGM

34 IND
39 IND

45+
All the rest were negative.

IGG

I had eye problems, made worse when put on zmax oral dose.

The sensitivity to light went into vivid vision...not being able to stay in stores because of the lighting. It lasted about 3 months.

loss of left pelvic muscle...and various other muscles.

Bladder problems

doxy and time helped with the eye issues.

my coinfections are negative thru Igenex and MDL

western blot and PCR negative thru MDL

Igenex
IGM
41+
31 IND

IGG
39IND
41+
66+

I had terrible eye problems associated with Lyme which included retinal vasculitis, optic neuritis, optic neuropathy, periphlebitis,uveitis, macular edema etc. I lost a good portion of the vision in my left eye and was loosing my right eye until I finally got someone to believe I had Lyme and started treating me for it. I also made several trips to Boston to see a uveitis specialist to help the inflammation in my eyes.

My vision went from only being able to count fingers at 2 ft in the left eye to 20/25 and the right eye is now 20/20.

IGM BANDS -

IGG BANDS + 93,83,34,31

Hello,

I see Lyme bands there....

If you look at tree patrols links, you will see that different LLMD's have different bands for exposure, but they are mostly the same...
