Well for the last year, i've had horrible fatigue, flu sypmtoms, head pressure, severe headache, dizzyness, "cloudyness", brain fog, side pain, joint pain, eye pressure (left eye), nausia, wieght loss, wieght gain, earclog, Left nose clog, Congestion...and im prolly leaving stuff out. Also I've had joint pain for years now. Alot of joint pain. I was bit by a tick a year ago b4 all this started. And the drs are swearing up and down its not lyme. I did get a rash from the tick bite. And there still telling me its not that, i've been tested for it i think 5 times now. I have been to 15 drs. had 3 mris, 2 catscans of the sinus, 2 of the brain...eeg's...ekgs. You name it i've had it. I've had pituitary gland checks, all kinda stuff. Everything has come back negative. Someone said it sounds like fybromyalga. Some still say its lyme. I'm still leaning for lyme. I'm on doxy now. Only 200mg a day. Everyones claiming thats not strong enough to kill the lyme. Any input you could give me on sympotoms of fybro would be great. At this point im willing to try anything! Take care all
thanks

Hi eclipse, sounds like your having a rough time of it..Everything you have mentioned,the symptoms and all,sounds like my symptoms.. I am awaiting test results from docs to see whether i have fibromyalgia... It is hard because from what i have read about fibromyalgia all these symptoms can be linked to a couple of autoimmune diseases..Lyme being one of them..I was tested for lupus about two years ago but tests came back negative.. But now it could be fibro.. It can be very confusing indeed.. I sympathise with you as i know what you are going through...Hope you find out soon what it is.....

Also i am on doxy as well they say that it is a good medication to be on for this sort of thing...

Sounds suspiciously like fibromyalgia. Have you seen a rheumatologist? You are having a difficult time, and I'm sure you are ready for answers. Keep going, don't give up. You deserve better.

Blessings,
Kirstee

I haven't. I go back to my 2nd infectious disease dr. this monday. I think he is going to refer me to a rhumatologist. But yea, ive gradually gotten better from a year ago. Little by little. Im still not near perfect...60% maybe? But thats on my good days. I'll keep u guyz updated!!!
