I went to my family doctor and he did give me an antibiotic for 7 days. HE UNDERTREATED YOU!


I was fine,but now I am having trouble with numbness and tingling in my arms and legs and there has been a time or two that I had it in my lips as well.


I also have dizziness and fatique,aches and pains here and there too.


I had blood work done, the western blot but that was negative. WHICH LAB DID THIS? GET COPIES OF WESTERN BLOT IGM AND IGG FOR YOUR HOME FILES.

POST YOUR POSTIVIE AND INDETERMINED NUMBERS; we'll help you from there.


We would like to know if there is a lyme disease specialist in our area,or the closest one to us.


We live in Berks County ... Topton PA. Thanks. Dawn Marie

Betty's POSTING GUIDELINES

When you post or reply, please break up your solid, continuous block text welcome to the board! many of us have neuro lyme where we can NOT read long solid block text and be able to comprehend and read it as is.


please edit your post by CLICKING PAPER/PENCIL ICON to right of your name. that opens up BOTH subject line and body text.


now please break up your WORDY SENTENCES into one sentence paragraphs. Then hit ENTER KEY ``THREE`` after each paragraph; we need that space for comprehension.


if you are NOT a wordy person, you can do 2 or 3 total ok. do this for your entire post.

NOTE: you do NOT have to use "", just show the name of person you are responding to, and then type your comment.


IF you need to use "", PLEASE DELETE "BOLD" CODES so it's regular type text we read vs. the DARK, HARSH/PAINFUL BOLDING.

specifically, delete the first 4 characters of 2ND LINE of a ""


[QB] just delete these 4 characters, and BOLDING is GONE! my eyes will really appreciate that; it's one very bad side effect of my having lyme for 38.5 years!! xox


then go to left hand corner and mark box to receive ALL REPLIES, and click EDIT SEND


we thank you for helping us; otherwise, we will SOB, SCROLL ON BY, since we can't read to help you. If I see posts like this, I SOB them; to hard on me.
