Hello,
It is my privilege to be able to help you,
As you were treated for Lymes diseases 8 year ago with antibiotics and still you are having symptoms of the disease.
Lyme disease can affect multiple body systems and produce a range of symptoms.
Not all patients with Lyme disease will have all symptoms, and many of the symptoms are not specific to Lyme disease, but can occur with other diseases as well.
For your symptoms i may suggest you to consult Infectious disease specialist and Neurologist for complete information and treatment.
Thank you
