Any of you nice ladies and fellas see any fallout from Lyme Disease? I developed a "tremor" in my hand. First noticed it last July, but had to wait til I was back in NJ to see a neurologist. He ruled out Parkinsons, which was a relief, but sending me for an MRI and bloodwork which includes "LYME Elisa" and "LYME Western Blot". I was treated for Lymes over 25 years ago.
The twitch hasn't gotten better or worse since I first noticed it and the doctor was pretty enthusiastic that whatever it is he was confident he could treat it. I don't know why he needs an MRI he's not going to find anything in my head. I have heard Lyme can come back to haunt you.
