I have had ME/CFS for around 10 years now and the only infection that I have ever tested positive for is chronic lyme disease b afzelii and garinii . This was confirmed in tests performed both in the US and also Germany. My wife was also diagnosed with fibromyalgia about 2 years ago. Neither of us were EVER bitten by a tick , But we were both bitten by a horsefly a short while before our symptoms started (my wife was bitten 6 months before me and her symptoms started around 6 months before mine). What I wanted to ask is , are there others out there that have not thought of this potential of transmission and are dismissing Lyme Disease due to having never been bitten by a tick?
There are numerous threads at the moment regarding the association of ME and biofilm bacteria and I was interested in others thoughts on this ?
