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
