Hi, I'm in search of a LLD in NY for my husband, age 36. He has chronic fatigue, achy muscles and joints, mainly in the knees, calves, and thighs.
He sometimes gets headaches. Some can be debilitating.
In late June he had fever, chills, and flu-ike symptoms. Attributed it to our children having coxsackie, however, he didn't have the rash and sores along with it.
Weaker vision in left eye when he wears his contacts, but not his glasses.
He has been to GP multiple times, and is going to the rheum again next week to see further results.
Negative lyme test and negative WB, however we do not know how to read them. No bullseye rash.
Doctors dismiss lyme because of the neg tests and the lack of swelling in the joints.
Pos anti dsDNA, but no other symptoms of lupus. (no rash, sun sensitivity, hair loss, or blue fingers and toes.) TIA for your help.
