Help Someone/please!!!

Hey all~

is it normal for the neuropathy to come and go? It's very scary to me. I have had it in the past since June but it comes and then goes away.

The tingly/prickly feeling is in my cheek, right hand, and toes. My toes actually went a little numb this morning.

does this happen to any of you?

Yes, there are times where I can't even feel my fingers and toes.  I worry that the feeling won't come back, very awful feeling, that's a very scary thought.  I only have mine at night, every night...usually it's my hands only.  For awhile when I first was diagnosed I couldn't feel my head/scalp...that was the worst of them all.  I don't have that to often now....like I said just my hands.  I am experiencing bad leg/hip pain right now....do you know anything about magnesium, I am reading people take that?? Hope this helps and hope you feel better soon.

Hey,
thanks for answering my call for help. It's very scary especially when I think I'm feeling better in some areas. ::::)

Regarding the magnesium. I do take it twice a day it's good for muscle spasm, sore ribs which I had a lot of early on. It really helps.

thanks again for being so helpful. I truly appreciate it. :)

How long have you had lyme? I had all the symptoms for a about 4-5 months before being diagnosed.

I have had lyme for two years now.  I am not sure how long I had it before being diagnosed.  I would take a guess 3-4 months also.  I was sick for about 2 months before they tested.  

You're welcome...I think I'll try the magnesium.
