Ok folks... help me out.

I am an Amtrak train attendant with Lyme induced Multiple Sclerosis.

When I work I have horrific upper left (top wing) back pain that I do nothing about.

The other day my left hand as well as my left torso went numb.

Also... my right eye (after having this for a long time) went blurry...

I found out that I have high blood pressure and lisonpril (HPB meds) were given to me. The blur went away.

How do we know?

WELCOME MISTER GREEN*)!!

Lyme disease and MS incuded Lyme are treatable conditions- I hope you are seeing a good LLMD- Lyme Literate MD. We havehad many people with Lyme induced MS in our local support group and most have become asymptomatic if not in full reimssion thanks to longterm antibiotic therapy.

Glad to see you aboard*)!
Best wishes,
Sarah
