Guest guest Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 First off thanks for responding, Alice you said you were treated for it, how were you and did you notice any improvement? you said you had some of the symptoms but no neurological or cognitive symptoms, what symptoms led you to be tested then? Here is just some fast symptoms on me this is as of last summer when I noticed the bite. Menstrual problems sometimes 3 week's out of the month, very very tired. Stiff neck almost always, short term memory problems, confusion. My joints ache especially knees, larger muscles in my leg's cramp up, speech problems at times. My hearing is at a 80 decibel loss but that can be mito. The only thing that I believe would set me apart form mito is the area I had the bite in was about the size of a golf ball swelled up very painful and it lasted about 2 months before it went away, also in the middle it was white and around it was red. I live in Wisconsin and farm for a living also I'm a very avid bow hunter and gun hunter. Let's put it this way I love the wood's. Alice do you remember what the name of your blood test was that they did on you, was it a Southern blot test? Any help would be great, I don't have very good insurance so I don't want to waste money on useless testing. Thank you all. Patty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
