Hi All. Just wanted to give another update.
I have been on antibiotics for Lyme for 2 1/2 years, which i started after about 21 years of illness.
I seemed to improve somewhat for a while and my test results improved too: inflammatory markers, nagalase, etc...all better.
Well, 2 months ago, I started to feel worse. Then, a few weeks ago, my neuro symptoms suddenly started to get MUCH worse and the small gains I had made are all gone. It really is beyond awful with my head feeling this foggy and swollen.
My energy is still a little improved from where it was in the beginning.
I got some tests done recently, and they are all worse! Everything is much more abnormal than before.
Does anyone know if this might be a normal course of treatment or does it just mean the bacteria has stopped responding to the drugs?
I know it is impossible to know for sure.....but would love any opinions as to why this might be happening.
Thanks a lot
Daff
