What Are the Symptoms of Chronic Lyme Disease?;

Some chronic Lyme disease symptoms

As mentioned, chronic Lyme disease consists of a broad cluster of physical, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms. Some of these symptoms are much more common, while others almost never occur, but can be deadly. But even the less severe symptoms, such as chronic fatigue and pain, can lead to drastic changes in quality of life for chronic Lyme patients.

Chronic Lyme survivors have reported experiencing the following symptoms for months to years after infection:

Intermittent fevers, chills, and sweats
Chronic inflammation
Roving aches and stiffness
Numbness and tingling in the limbs
Dizziness and shortness of breath
Tremors
Respiratory infections
Sore throats
Stomach pains
Heart palpitations and irregular heartbeat
Anxiety and paranoia
Rage
Hallucinations
Hearing sensitivity
Dysphonia (vocal cord damage)
New food allergies
Multiple-chemical sensitivities
Seizures

Chronic Lyme disease can be linked to deadly symptoms, such as Lyme carditis (inflammation of the heart).

Chronic Lyme Disease;

Many patients with chronic Lyme disease are profoundly debilitated. Investigators of the four NIH-sponsored retreatment trials documented that the patients’ quality of life was consistently worse than that of control populations and equivalent to that of patients with congestive heart failure. Pain levels were similar to those of post-surgical patients, and fatigue was on par with that seen in multiple sclerosis.
