Has anybody else noticed pupil constriction as a side effect. I am having a particularly bad day with foggy brain, nausea, weak jello-like legs, and I noticed my pupils are tiny. Any thoughts?

Sometimes they get really constricted, other times they look more dialated than they should. They even get uneven.
I think this happens because of our nerves, and our brain is nerve central. Posts: 353 | From Florida boonies | Registered: Nov 2005

YUP yup yup!!! Doc S of Sf wrote up about seeing Holmes-Adie Syndrome in many of his Lyme patients (including me). Adie pupil is when one pupil is HUGE and ONE is TINY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happens with Lyme in particular- very odd looking- first time it happened to me I was like, "Uh, oh, ANOTHER weird thing! Yikes!"

I had this happen to me too over a three month period. I'd get this sick feeling sore throat, fever, extreme fatique and mental fog that would hit me hard. Usaully these feelings would last 5 to 15 minutes and when they did my pupils were the size of pinheads. I was on no medications but i do have rocky mountain spotted fever. Tested neg for lyme. But i'm questioning that.
