How can I really answer this? There are sooooooooooooooo many issues with Lyme. When I have to fill out medical forms about what is going on with my health the list gets so long I actually get embarrassed. Lyme mimics over 300 conditions and diseases. We seemed back to the brim with problems with co infections added on to that.

So if I had to choose one thing to get rid of first it would the fatigue and dizziness . After that then the pain and stiffness that seems to be in every joint, muscle...even my teeth. Then sleep problems with my fevers, hot flashes and restless leg and arms. Then all the GI issues, then the brain fog and memory issues. Then my heart problems and air hunger. Then the lymphatic system and kidney issues.

Fatigue, brain fog, joint pain.

The crushing fatigue, speech and coordination issues, and heart palpitations were things I struggled with for years. It was when I started experiencing constant stomach pain and nausea that I was forced to find help. It didn't take a good doctor long to recognize that I had Lyme Disease.

The symptoms of Lyme are varied and tend to shift constantly making it difficult to pin down. The most obvious are debilitating tiredness and severe psin which often moves around the body. Other symptoms include numbness and tingling in extremities, trouble with temperature control, neorological symptoms includin anger and anxiety, headaches, distuption of menstrual cycle and digestive issues.

Fatigue is one of the most common, and most debilitating. Other symptoms may include peripheral neuropathy, weight change, itching, memory loss, mood swings, depression, loss of libido, vision changes, balance, dental health, insomnia, tics, chest cramps/spasms, panic attacks, and so much more!

For me it's the nervepain, the brain fog and inability to detox and tolerate toxic substances (like sugar, alcohol, pollution). The neuropathy reacts to cold. So going outside in winter months can be a real hassle and feel like hell. It can be very debilitating, which leaves very few options.

depersonalization, especially when Im around my wife and kids or in a social setting because it makes me feel like I don't belong or fit in, often leading to thoughts of suicide. Pain, especially joint pain that keeps me awake at night. Anxiety and panic, then when I had air hunger my feelings of panic were much worse. Neorological symptoms, especially those that make it hard to function or be around other people, like Bell's palsy, trigeminal neuralgia, dizziness, vertigo, and hearing and vision disturbances. Tics that other people can see and instead of asking about it they treat you like your crazy or contagious. I have to add though over the past two years treatment has reduced the occurrence of my symptoms and I have hope for the future.

Pure exhaustion, due to adrenal fatigue. Joint pain. Brain fog. Gastrointestinal distress. The list could go on, but those are the ones that limit me most.

Seziers and loseing control of your body

Posted Sep 28, 2017 by Darren 400

In a percentage of Lyme Disease sufferers, their autoimmune system "crashes". This, in my first hand experience, is what is erroneously referred to as "chronic" Lyme disease. Symptoms are profound fatigue, joint pain, mental confusion or inability to think and perform basic tasks, "air hunger", sun aversion, the list is long. The solutions are complex and require a specialist that works outside the medical mainstream. Self advocacy and taking control of your healing process are of utmost importance. There is no pill that will fix this.

Lyme disease affects every part of the body. There's not a part that is not affected by this horrific disease. Neurological symptoms (memory loss, cognitive loss, brain fog, dizzy, headaches, etc.)
Joint pain (Lyme arthritis) - my fingers and toes are crooked and inflamed and very painful. It takes me often 10 minutes to tie my shoes. Every joint in my body has pain.
Muscle pain/cramps/contractures - most of us do not absorb the nutrients we need to feel calm and to have minerals/vitamins be absorbed to keep muscles relaxed. Every muscle and the connective tissue (fascia) surrounding the muscles is so tight that I feel bound all my waking hours.
High anxiety/panic attacks - again, this is caused by malabsorption of nutrients that keep healthy people calm
Eyes - my eyes have trouble focusing for a few hours every morning and they burn and itch
Gastrointestinal pain due to destruction of gut lining by antibiotics for many of us, so we must eat a highly restrictive diet that limits probably 90% of what healthy people eat.

I have hundreds of symptoms, like most people with chronic Lyme disease. I cannot possibly list them all, so I've listed just a few.

Getting rid of symptoms:
#1: abdominal pain and bloating due to destruction of gut lining from antibiotics
#2: get rid of all anxiety/panic attacks
#3: get rid of all arthritic pain in joints
#4: get rid of all muscle problems as listed above
#5: get rid of all neurological symptoms as listed above

Wow, big answer for me symptoms of lyme happen to have given me major preload failure and autonomic failure. So my heart isn’t pumping properly due to my nervous system not working properly because of Lyme. That is the biggest symptom of lyme not underfull control without pharmaceuticals drugs.

There are literally hundreds of possible symptoms with Lyme.
Many start with flu-like symptoms: fever, aches, weird rash(es).
I had 87 symptoms by the time I was properly diagnosed.

Extreme fatigue, joint and muscle pain, headache, short-term memory loss, poor concentration, stomach problems, etc.
