Hi Liz,
I am really sorry to hear about
your issues. Hang in there.
Have you done a detox bath yet? How about
a detox foot bath? I can't stress enough how important detoxing is. Your body needs help getting all of the die-off flushed out of your system.
Here is a link to a good article that explains how those toxins can be the primary reason for symptoms:

" Fifty percent of the health restoration every Lyme sufferer seeks will come from effectively eliminating the toxins and reducing the sources of the toxins, i.e., bacteria and toxic lifestyle products. The other 50% of healing will revolve around restoring structure and function and optimal coherence within the body, mind, and spirit.

Research and clinical studies have determined that there are neuro-toxins released by the Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb) spirochete [Klinghardt 2002]. Neurotoxins are nerve poisons. These toxins, according to research, are the cause of most, if not all, the symptoms of Lyme disease. It is also believed that tissue damage is not caused by Lyme bacteria directly; in other words, the bacteria are not "eating" your tissues. It is the accumulation of Bb toxins in your body that is most likely responsible for the symptoms experienced by Lyme sufferers."
I hope this helps some!!
