I highly suspect I may have it. I am having difficulty with doctors and tests in my area so I really am unsure where to turn.
For years I have dealt with a dx of Fibromyalgia....learned to live with it...One month ago I had a "flare up" of something and spent the night in the ER. From that night my symptoms have been unceasing and worsening. After a followup with my doc in which all my blood work came back neg for RH, Lupus, SED rate normal etc I started researching Lyme and have nearly all the symptoms.
Stiff neck radiating from the left side, popping and cracking in my neck which sounds likes rice crispies, sore skin in lymph node areas around my jaws, armpits, collar bones and back of neck, numbing and tingles on left side of my face with a "heavy feeling" on left side, fever of 99 pretty much daily, finger joints stiff and sore along with toe joints, knees, elbows, hips, buzzing sensations in various areas such as feet and ankles, heavy arms and legs like they are made out of cement, fatigue unreieved by sleep, constipation, not really blurry or double vision but eyes feel like they have a film over them and I blink to try to see better, slight feeling of tremors or shakes very early morning like I have too much caffeine, inability to remember or retrieve words or names and long pauses when I speak because I just can't get the words to form sentences in my head, headache but not excruciating, usually on left side, feeling as though parts of my body aren't attached to me (I know I am touching my head but it is a weird sensation like it's not my head).....I know I am leaving out symptoms but that is it in a nutshell....
