Coping With Lyme Disease

Drs. began treating me for Lyme Disease in 1983 when I was 42 yrs old I am now 67 and it seems that the Lyme comes out of remission every 6 mos now. I was hospitalized in 1991 with 108 fever and Rocky Mountain Fever showed up as an old strain in my blood. I spent 9 days in the hospital and when I went home The Bull’s eye came out under my right arm. It took me about a month to recover. I have suffered with Miagraines and pain all over. My arms go to sleep from the shoulders to the fingers and my legs from the hips to my toes.

I was hospitalized again in 1995, this time Lyme, Rsmf and Erlicyosis showed up. I have had terrible bouts with this ever since I was about 12 yrs old and wonder how I made it through all the pain if not for God. I now keep a couple of perscriptions of Doxycline on hand and sometimes, I can get back on my feet sooner if I start it early on. I was again hospitalized in Dec. 2007 with an outbreak. I am so tired of taking Doxycline but without it I would not recover.

Is ther anyone else with it this bad? And yet when I think about it there is always someone worse off.
