I just have to throw something out there. When I start looking at the last 7 months I can pretty much pin point a "symptom" each month that was different to my body.

Now that I have read so much about the various symptoms you can have with Lyme, I had a symptom almost exactly every 28-30 days.

I had my bite in Summer of 2005. So I do not know why my body decided back in Sept. 2006 to start having symptoms, but here I am 7 months after the first symptom I experienced in so much pain on my right side and enlarged lymph glands only on my right side.

I believe from reading about spirochetes that they go in cycles of about every 28 days. So it is logical to have a "new" symptom every month once those "babies" start moving through your system. Anyone agree??

Yeah, I thought I was over having that monthly cycle stuff and here it goes again but with different aches and pains. I can mark the worse days by my calendar too - same week every month. But the fatigue has no cycle with me - it is getting worse and worse and the good day days are getting fewer and fewer.
