yes, I have lyme too.  Was anemic a few times.  Took iron pills to bring up h & h.  RDW 15.5  but varies with anitbiotic treatment.  Also have many other problems with the lyme or caused by the lyme.

I have had Lyme for at least 1 1/2 years and I had low Vitamin D 11.8 and a low/normal ferritin at 18 when I was at my worst.  The iron pills were great for me, chromagen forte.
