I was diagnosed with lymes 20 years ago. The last
6/7 years I have have struggled with fatigue, not being able to sleep,tingly areas in my upper arms and lower legs,Cold symptoms with out ever fully developing an actual cold and several others issues.

My regular doctor did hundreds of dollars worth of blood test(all normal) to tell me he thought I was depressed.

Another doctor did some test to determine that I had food sensitivity to wheat and milk proteins.(unusual @ 45)

This she related to my general feeling of blah , body aches the headaches along with the some of the cold symtoms.I avoid these things which help with some of my digestive issues.

Then I saw a show about pre-menapausal syndrom talked to my OB/GYN. She did more blood test. All hormone levels seem normal.

I have gained 40lbs in the last 6/7 years . I was an active individual, who exercise regularly(areobics)for 15 years prior. I have tried to maintain exercising the past several years with no success.

It seems I'm fine for a couple weeks and then I get hit with a major energy drop , aches and pains ..etc. I am taking a multivitamin and drink protein shakes to try and help.

I am afraid that it may be related to my lymes ...

I am looking for a doctor who doesn't look at me crosseyed when I tell him of my fears...
