Topic: Toes On Both Feet Pulling Back

Has anyone had their toes pull back like the tendons in their feet are shortening?

Over the past year this is happening to me. Two of my toes actually put dents in the tops of my shoes.

I attribute it to the LD I've had for years but I was just wondering if anyone else experienced this?

Thanks for the help. Paul.

My LLMD looked at this and said it was strange.

I think I have had this for a while.

My arm is doing this. My left arm is dramatically shorter than the right, now, and I feel it pulling all the time.

Yes, I have had this happen and I found it to be very painful. It is letting up as I get further into tx.

It's all about the infection, and yes these critters are in the feet.

I would say the most likely cause is a Magnesium deficiency. Lyme depletes it and your muscles and immune system need lots of it.
