Lyme

To anyone who suffers chronic daily head pressure/headaches, along with other odd weird symptoms, and you have been healthy all of your life, please get tested for Lyme. Make sure its the Western Blot. And even if it comes back negative, see an LLMD or get tested again a few weeks later. I've been healthy all of my life and my symptoms came head on 7 months ago. I finally found a doctor who wanted to test for Lyme, despite zero of the joint pain that is associated with Lyme. I came back positive. Only 30-40% of people get the bulls eye rash. Some can get bit and not have symptoms for years while the bacteria is dormant.

My symptoms:

chronic daily head pressure on top of head, sometimes radiates to sinuses
heart pain
tinnitus
eye floaters
ear popping/random pain
fatigue
migraine
throbbing/pulsating sensation in head
dizziness

MRI, CAT, allergy, blood testing comes back normal always.

1.5 month on doxycyline and herbs, and I'm feeling better.

If you search these forums you'll find that Lyme disease, proper testing and treatment have been discussed in great length.

I'm glad you're feeling better,

Ben
