Diagnosed with Lyme Disesase

Lymeticks

At the urging of Diane, I was tested for Lyme Disease a week ago, and the test came back positive.

Chronic Lyme Disease would certainly go a long way towards explaining the litany of symptoms I’ve been experiencing the last 4-5 years. Spot pains, digestive issues, headaches, heart palpitations, burning skin, numbness… and much more. The symptoms come and go, but have never gone away completely.

The doctor has me on a 21 day regimen of Doxycycline 100mg 2x a day. Today’s my first day. Crossing my fingers and hoping that this works.

    3 days in to the treatment…no major side effects to report. Overall, feeling good.
