Do not slow down out of fear!!!! Keep going and let pain be your guide.

I will ask her about the Lyme as well but I know ID doctors are not big on Lyme either.
ID docs seem to be a waste of time and money for most of us patients that have been swept into the fray. It is not uncommon for individuals who have issues with EBV to have autoimmune thyroid issues. Get a full panel that includes thyroid antibodies.

Keep us all informed as to how your testing goes!
