Hey everyone im here because i think i have been infected with Lyme Disease back in 2008,i remember having a bulls eye rash that didnt hurt it just irritated me on the back of my neck but me having long hair i thought maybe my hair was causing the reaction to it, but to let everybody know i am a very athletic person, im in shape, muscular and love football and working out the whole nine.
Now let me tell you my story on stumbling across my theory of having Lyme Disease and i hope someone with knowledge could help me. I stay in the state of Florida and around July 14 of 2008 i had my first son and everything was so GOOD for me i had a great job the women i love and a new son it couldnt get any better.The same year December comes and i Fell into a victim of horrible symptons, here comes this headache that i never had in my life all i could do was rub my face i started to feel very ill then out of nowhere my lungs started burning i got real bad chest pains and i felt like my heart was sliced open it felt like i had a heart murmur,i didnt know what it was so i went to the doctor and they found nothing at all they thought it was my asthma but me being into sports i never had Asthma problems never.
So that was my first attack ever and from that point on till now i have seen multiple doctors and specialist and to make a long story short because i then been thru hell and back i never had medical problems i always been healthy....now after my first attack i had multiple symptons that come and subside....i had stiff neck,stiff jaw,nerves twitch,foggy brain,sensitive eyes,dizzness,shortness of breath,heart palpitations,chest pains,muscle pains,headaches,feeling ill,lungs feeling like there collasped and heart pains which feels like stinging and stabs.
I Have been to the ER four times thinking i was dying and they find nothing but tell me i have anxiety well your darn right because i think im about to die and no one is telling me whats wrong with me every test and blood work is coming back fine i then had my heart screened and monitored and then been thru physical treadmill runs with heart monitors on and plenty chest x-rays with negative results.I had my brain x-rayed multiple times and nothing they find and a lung speacialist run me for a bunch of lung disease and nothing.So now since my first attack my remaining symptons that i have from the time i sleep to waking up are...shortness of breath,foggy brain,sensitive eyes,heart palpitations,etc. i can no longer run or do extreme sports without feeling like im going to die cause i cant provide the oxygen my body needs my heart feel like its working to hard the doctors say i have high blood pressuse and i believe the infection is the blame but then i start having bad heart palpitations which causes alot of heart stings.
Now i just work out from time to time and deal with it because i had it for years but now im about tired of feeling like everyday is a drag i barley get excited because i am in so much pain and no one knows the things my body goes thru while i put on a smile. Now since i looked on the website for my symptons i ran into a bunch of Lyme Disease stories and said hey that sounds exactly like me, so since i was armned with a disease i ran to my Primary Care Doctor just to get shot back down with a no your blood work was fine if you had anything it would of shown up and they see that im a very fit guy so they say your healthy your doing to much worrying, its like i wanted to scream and say i wish we could switch places and u wouldnt be saying that anymore and once we switch you can keep it. So Is there anybody out there who thinks im on the right track of being Infected with Lyme Disease i have been tested so many times been kept overnight in hospitals and gone through so many physical and mental test and nothing at all to tell me why i feel like this....so now im thinking about trying to cure myself online buy being the meds i need to help fight this with any help from anybody with knowledge or been through anything similar path please give me hope thanks.
