Is it posible?

I've had Lyme and confections for a long time. Episodes of feeling well and then crashes with major depression and anxiety mostly. Now I was Pos. muscle tested with My LLMD for Babesia. I have been depressed and anxious for the last four months. I have night sweats, achy heavy legs (not all the time), fatigue, and a slight heady feeling. Dizzy, tons of brain issues like not concentrating, not comprehending what I read, memory issues, some blurry vision but not always. I react to so many herbs, and antibiotics now that I get to very very dark places.

Because I don't have joint pain (had it many many years ago for 2-3 years, hip and neck mostly) and mainly anxiety and depression and fatigue, is it possible that the basis of the depression and anxiety is because of all the infections?. I am going for a brain MRI with contrast on Monday which probably won't show anything. I have always been looking to validate this because I don't have much pain like most Lyme sufferers anymore. Thanks in advance.

Lyme is so weird. Lyme definitely can cause depression and anxiety.

With regard to your memory and concentration, look at poor Kris Kristofferson. They said he had Alzheimer's and it was lyme all along. His story is so sad.

Yup. Pain is not my biggest problem. Head stuff and panic, depression, malaise are the biggest. And I’m fighting a major Babesia infection (high percentage of infected cells). Night sweats, chills, fatigue, brain fog, occasional eye issues. Sounds exactly like Babs.

You mean a Cat scan? And why the jaw?

I too am having bad anxiety/depression now. Lyme is well known for its neuropsych disease. I was off an SSRI for the first time in many years ( what a mistake ! ) since in starting in May I found out my Cymbalta was interfering with mt REM sleep after a sleep study. Just started zoloft about 2 weeks ago, its starting to help a little but have this ringing not sure if it will pass. I have lost alot of weight and having difficulty with sleep which is difficult because I have sleep apnea and use cpap. I am always on the verge of crying, and my anxiety starts running wild with bad thoughts of losing my job, then my house. Its awful. The Chronic fatigue during the day contributes to the depression as well.

Chronic Lyme sucks

FYI my 2012 1nd 2016 Brain MRI were the same having multiple T2 white flares ( demyelination ) probably from Spirochetes is my guess MS clinic at Umass said I didnt have MS they i had an "overstressed neurosystem " I guess he couldn't say I dont know. They still couldnt explain my tremor, balance problem and tripping with my right foot ( which had decreased reflex response). Soon after that i was dagnosed with Lyme by 2 LLMD's.
