The Last Week or So

I have been crushed down with fatigue. I stopped taking the cat's claw, for experimental reasons, and I'm really feeling it: waking up feeling like I need another full eight hours of sleep, heavy body, stiff, achy neck and back, foggy head, lots of migrating joint pains....

But I'm still not sure what I'm currently experiencing is "chronic Lyme" or "post-Lyme." I thought a closer look at the symptoms the cat's claw was keeping at bat might offer more insight into this, but I'm still honestly at a total loss.

We'll see what a difference another week or two makes....

autoimmune endocrine problems have similar symptoms
I saw no way to email you. I won't give my long drawn out history here. But I've had a wide variety of similar symptoms to what you describe. I've just been diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease. My current suspicion is that I also have Addison's disease. These are autoimmune conditions of the endocrine system. The bull's eye rash...not sure about that one. But this DOES cause skin problems. And every other problem you describe. Google "adrenal antibodies" and "thyroid antibodies". Get the tests done. (oh, btw, I've had a spinal tap to check for lyme - negative).
