lymes how do you stop pain
Could someone tell me how to find a doctor to help me. I think I have lymes or are having reaction to lymerix vaccine. Either way every joint in my body is hurting. In the past two years it has gotten worst. I have trouble getting up and down,my joints somedays hurt to touch. Now my test blood test show i have rheumatoit arthritis. Every time i turn around lately something else has happened, tingling in face ,hands, numdnessarms legs, I feel like my body is falling apart. Lymes test always negative. I don't understand blood test.
the lyme, western blot were 5 of the following Borrelia-specific bands 18,23,28,30,39,41,45,58,66,and93 were positive . what does this mean. I'm so tired of feeling bad.

Sorry to hear about your situation.
Since you have the results of the Lyme tests, then you must have seen an MD for diagnosis and treatment. What did they say about the test results?
The blood tests are not terribly accurate, and Lyme-familiar MDs say that a patient's symptoms have to be taken into account in making a diagnosis of Lyme or no Lyme. ... But you do seem to have a number of positive bands associated with Lyme.
What kind of dr have you seen? If you google 'how to find an LLMD' and/or go to the ilads [dot] org website, you may be able to find an MD specializing in Lyme (LLMD is a casual term used to mean a doctor who understand what a problem Lyme can be, short for 'Lyme-literate MD".)
I am sorry for your suffering. Let us know if we can give you further information to help you along. I don't believe anyone on this site is medically trained, so this is not medical advice, but sometimes we can help each other from our experiences.
Take care.

sorry to hear you are suffering so - musculoskeletal pain is/can be so devestating to ones life - you need a lyme literate medical doctor {LLMD.]
you will get help here in locating one - I live in u.k. - so can't be of any help with that.
LLMD,s. diagnose lyme based on symptoms/history - blood tests, etc; can be helpful but aren't very reliable - an LLMD. looks at the whole picture of lyme and understands more about treatment than a main stream doc.
