Long time lyme

---

I was bitten by three ticks on the same day in Purchase, NY IN 1983. Purchase is outside of New York City in Westchester County. I had symptoms right away. Mainly, I remember severe stomach pain, which moved to chronic kidney infections and depression. Eventually, I began to have severe joint problems and had to have numerous surgeries. I developed plantar faciitis and more mental problems like brain fog, word-finding difficulty and memory loss. My most difficult and debilitating symptom by far has been the fatigue. Some days I sleep 18 hours. Other days I sleep 9-10. These are only a list of some of my symptoms. I have suffered from many more. 

Over the last year, my symptoms have improved with aggressive IV treatment, however, I have a long way to go.
