Symptoms Of Lyme Disease
Learn the signs so you can get on the road to recovery faster
June 2006
Stage 1
The incubation period for Lyme disease ranges from 3 to 32 days after a
bite
from an infected tick. In roughly 80 percent of cases, the disease
first
presents itself with a red skin rash-called erythema migrans-at the
site of
the bite. The rash expands out from the bite in a circular pattern over
the
course of several days and often becomes bright red on its outer edge,
forming a bull's-eye pattern. At this stage, patients may also
experience a
number of flulike symptoms, including:
| Quote: | Fatigue
Headache
Fever
Chills
Muscle or joint aches and pains
|
When treated at this stage, Lyme disease quickly yields to antibiotics.
Stage 2
If not promptly treated with antibiotics, the Lyme bacteria may spread
to
the skin, joints, nerves, and heart. Symptoms at this point can
include:
| Quote: | Stiff neck
Headache
Paralysis of facial muscles (Bell's palsy)
Heart palpitations
Joint and muscle pains
Arthritis, often in the knees
Debilitating fatigue or malaise
Meningitis
Nerve pain
Arrhythmia
Heart block (a condition that impairs the trans-mission of electrical
signals in the heart)
Rashes
|
Most stage 2 cases respond well to antibiotics, though in the worst
cases,
symptoms may linger after treatment.
Stage 3
If Lyme disease remains untreated or undertreated, symptoms may persist
for
a year or more after the initial tick bite. Late-stage Lyme can spur
symptoms such as:
| Quote: | Intermittent, chronic arthritis, most commonly in the knees
Memory impairment
Numbness or tingling in the hands or feet
Irritability
Weakness
Mood and sleep disturbances
Sensory loss
Diminished reflexes
|
Some evidence suggests that symptoms at this stage may stem from the
body's
immune response to the Lyme bacteria, though this theory is not yet
proven.
Even without treatment, most stage 3 cases eventually improve on their
own.

I'D SAY POSSIBLY THIS EXCRETMENT MAY HAVE COME FROM ALBERT ABRAMS BIG SHOT RHEUMATOLGIST IN ALLENTOWN 9 (THIS PERSON ACTUALLY SAID IN AN ARTICLE ABOUT THE VACINE THAT IT IS SAFE FOR ONE WHO HAD LYME D. IN THE PAST TO GET THE VACCINE).............. WHO IS A BUDDY OF SIGAL OR LUTHER RHODES GOOD INFECTIOUS D. DR. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO LYME HE TURNS INTO A MADMAN & INSINUATES ONE IS CRAZY ...............EXCRETMENT IS RIGHT.
