Symptoms between one instance last year and now are:

numbness
electric shock type pains that come and go
abornmal sensations (crawlies, pin pricks)
muscle twitches
headaches
hair loss

There were a series of months in-between where I felt completely fine, so can lymes symptoms come and go if you have it? Does anyone know if you can get it in Texas? I have never recalled a tick on me. I haven't had flu like symptoms either, so is it possible to not carry all the symptoms? Of course I don't want lymes, but when it comes to this or something like MS I'd be hoping for the lymes since you can recover from it. I'm not even sure if there are any doctors where I live that are knowledgable enough when it comes to lymes. :/
