Madisongrrl - Are you being evaluated my a Lyme literate doctor? Do you know the kinds of tests they did? The standard tests aren't very accurate. If your tests come back negative, you may still have Lyme. Consider a test from one of the tick specialist labs like Igenex, Stony Brook, or AdvancedLabs. Or at least ask your doctor to run a CD57 test through LabCorp. Insurance will usually cover the CD57 and it gives a good indication of whether or not you have Lyme. If your number is over 200, you are normal.

I have not heard of Naltrexone. I will have to check it out. I also have a real problem wearing shoes. They are incredibly painful. I have had to give up socks.

Northerngal - Yes, I am being treated for Lyme and Co-infections. There a lot of different antibiotics to cycle through that hit all the different forms that Lyme takes. It will be a long process. I have also been taking antibiotic drops for my eyes. My vision has improved already and the colors are brighter, although I did still get an episode of blindness that lasted about an hour on Saturday. I did not realize how much my eyes were being affected.
