Sorry to hear about your massive, daunting challenges.
I have a question about some of the wording: Are you saying that the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome was concurrent with the other listed conditions, caused them, or was a consequence of Lyme Disease? Curious since antiphospholipids show up in autoimmunity as a co-factor a lot, as you likely know.
I know personally one man who went through a maze of issues as broad as what you list and was eventually diagnosed with advanced Lyme. It probably does not have have a high enough profile. What treatment are you on if I may ask?
Thanks much. I grew up in Lyme country and once in a while I think abput this.
It is also ironic that I am on anti malarial, given I spent 6 summers getting bit by mosquitos in the subarctic.
This weekend I learned I am B6 deficient, which is an indication of inflammation and can cause bot muscle and nerve pain. I started on B6 today and hope it helps. All my joints are worse tthan usual, as well as my neuropathy.
I send best wishes on your diagnosis journey. It seems sometimes that only alternative health providers look at people more holistically.
Kind regards
