Yes, it is possible. We have had several people here over the years.

It is best to search "Lyme" in our search engine here, since some people post infrequently or only in the past, and have moved on.

Also to consider are the drugs you used. Some antibiotics are hard on nerves...long term use can damage mitochondria in cells.

Our mitochondria are mutated bacteria that were incorporated into mammalian cells to provide energy for us. They therefore are susceptible to the drugs that KILL bacteria. Typical infections are of short duration, but long term use as in Lyme treatments may damage the host. Flagyl and Tindamax are examples of two drugs sometimes used in Lyme treatments that have nerve damaging potential. Others are the fluoroquinolones like Cipro and Avelox...but those are less commonly used.
