I also had lymes disease. Still test positive. But not taking antibiotics. When first discovered I had it routine blood test with Western blot. I ended up in hospital as all of a sudden my anxiety was through the roof, same time menopause, and thyroid became hypo. Spent l month inpatient. Had pic line and given rocephin IV for only a few days as couldn't stand the pic line near my heart. So the infection control doc put me on biaxin xl for two years. At first daily forget for how long. Then it was three month on and then three months off. I then lost taste and smell. That's another story. But during the acute episode for lymes since no idea when had contracted it. I also could no longer handle ad's in any normal amount. Was put then on a mere 12.5mg of luvox & 2.5mg of paxil, and lots of benzos. Two years ago when last saw the infection doc as still had three positive bands or could have been 6 he gave me doxycycline as didn't know what to do. I only took a few weeks. Then due to a small surgery dicontinued. So I now take 50mg of luvox & 2.5mg of lexapro. Strange thing is that benzos now need less to fall asleep. No rheumatoid arthritis osteo, stuff like this. I'm also 66 so arthritis is to be expected. Have you recently had a lymes titer done from the lab in California? Phillipa
