I have been seeing a Psychiatrist for 4 weeks now, and yesterday I got so frustrated and asked him "what is wrong with me?". He went on to say something about having Lyme disease messed with my brain, and something about neural circuits and deficits and vulnerabilities (I can't remember, I was having a fuzzy moment while he was talking). I had Lyme disease undetected for over a year about 14 years ago (about 10 yrs. old). Since then I have had problems with arthritis, fibromyalgia. In the past 4-5 years I have been having problems with depression and maybe psychotic episodes?? I am not sure, my T put me on Zoloft and Seroquel and told me that I also might have ADD from childhood (I had a very bad childhood too). My mother is ill mentally also and I believe my father is too.
OK I am rambling. What i want to know is, has anyone here ever heard of Lyme disease causing problems with the brain? I didn't know this....
