Is there any research or evidence that having untreated Lyme disease can cause the blood alcohol level to be elevated? I am an attorney defending someone with Lyme disease charged with driving under the influence of alcohol. He is very believable - and has credible witnesses - that he only had 2 beers, yet his blood alcohol level is very high (.195). I am trying to figure out if the disease could possibly cause an elevated level or a false reading somehow. Thanks!
