Hi everyone,
I am nervous today because my right eyeball feels numb and vision in right eye is like declining or something.
Also, my lip on my right side feels a little weird like it is getting numb?
Is this from lyme? Co's? On zith 500 mg a day.
Have an appt. with eye doctor, but it sounds like its neuro?
What should I do? Has anyone else had this and does it just go away on its own?? Could this be serious??
I am about to freak out!

Not to freak you out, but sounds like it might be part of Bell's Palsy (typical lyme symptom). Mine's always on my right side too when it comes-from around eye through cheek and/or lips and chin.
Can you put a call into your LLMD?

Dawn,
Thank you for the response. Yea, I have a call into her and seeing my eye doc this afternoon.
I've heard of the bells palsey symptom, but not sure what the treatment is or if there is an abx for it.
Have to google it I guess and assuming its a neuro symptom???
Scared of what my show up on reasearching this subject!
... just when I thought I was really recovering @#!&%#!
