I was wondering if anybody else had sat and thought about wheter or not they might be cured. Over the past 3 weeks I have been feeling pretty good for the most part but ever once in awhile almost imagine that something else is wrong. Almost symptom hunting I guess. Any blurry spell or mild headache or muscle spasm or arthritic ache in knees. The disease has gotton me to be so paranoid I am not sure i can differenciate (cant spell) what is really a symptom any longer. Just curious if any one else has had this problem. Maybe it is all the dead end at the dr.s office that makes you feel like you immagine things.

I do the same thing!!

But then I went 3 weeks with no symptoms whatsoever, and I didn't even think about Lyme or symptoms during that time. I couldn't even imagine that anything I was feeling was from Lyme - because I wasn't feeling bad! It was after the symptoms started showing up again that I started wondering again.

I think most people take their health for granted, and never think about being sick unless they are feeling sick. At least I do... [bonk]

So I guess that maybe you're still having symptoms, and if you didn't have any, you wouldn't be wondering? I don't know. I talked to my doctor and he said that just means I'm not cured yet.

It's hard to tell what's normal though! I was at a point for a while that I forgot what healthy felt like. But you'll remember again!!
