Does anyone have any insight into addiction of px medication or controlled substance with lyme?

Not as self medication, but almost an OCD symptom.

Possibly connected with neuro lyme?

If it is OCD, it should respond, at least partially but possibly almost fully, to meds like Prozac, Zoloft, etc.

Lyme and Bart....or possibly any infection in the brain....can cause worsening of OCD tendencies. It goes along with that "environment influencing genetics" thing.
