I have some 2nd degree heart block issues. LLMD says its common in lyme.
My gosh, is there any part of the body that lyme doesn't screw up?????

Sorry to hear that! I have had alot of cardiac issues too, soon to see a cardiologist. Hope you feel better soon.
What are your symptoms? How does 2nd degree heartblock manifest?
No, sadly, there does not seem to be any organ system that lyme leaves alone. But there is treatment thankfully!
