Did your Dr. say anything? My face feels weird a lot too, kind of like pins and needles and my jaw feels like stiff and achey a lot. How long are you scheduled to remain on treatment. Make sure they don't pull you off too soon. I hope you are sleeping better and feeling better for this week. God bless you, -Val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 15, 1998 Report Share Posted November 15, 1998 Val, It is the same with me. I feel a lot better in the morning when I first wake up. (except when I had a bad headache the night before and carried through to morning) When I first got sick and I was in the hospital a lot of Lyme patients felt better in the moring. Then as the day goes on I feel my symptoms get worse. I hope you are all feeling better. I have a quick question. I started on a new antibotic last week. For the past three days every joint, muscle, and bone in my body are killing me. My foot and ankle swelled up and my fingers are like claws. I'm getting burning pains in my legs.(It feels like someone set a fire in my legs. Also I'm getting bad pains in my knee and the pain is shooting down my This is so strange to me because my joints are not my worst symptom. (My worst is neurolic symptoms) Usually it's just my left knee, back, neck, and jaw that hurts, not everything!!! Do you guys think I'm having a bad herx or I'm I developing new symptoms. I think it's a herx and if it is I don't mind the pain. I want to kill all of those little buggers. What do you guys think? Take care, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that same thing where every muscle and bone in my body hurts and I feel like too tired to move. It feels like I have a really bad flu, except I have no flu symptoms like fever or stuffy nose or anything. My joints are not my main symptoms ethier and when I get these pains I think it is a herx. I am not sure ethier and it makes me crazy. I just hope it is a herx when i get it. How long have you had Lyme? I forgot. Anyway fell better. usually when I get that way it subsides in a few days. write back when you get a chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad to hear you are feeling well. Did you feel any better on the orals? Do you still have any symptoms now or do you fel asymptomatic? what does sx mean. Does that mean that you went undiagnosed for 11 years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
