Do you feel more tired then usual? Have you started noticing back pain? Maybe there is more to it then aging. Sophia talks about her recent diagnosis of Lyme Disease and what medication has worked for her.

I thought I was just getting old; I thought it was menopausal symptoms, or I just wasn't feeling well. I'm Sophia, and I have Lyme disease. A couple weeks ago, I was feeling very tired. I had flu-like symptoms that never developed into a flu, sort of a long-standing cough that never got worse, headaches. I became very concerned when I started to have swelling in my fingers. I couldn't make a fist. So I went to the physician; made an appointment to get blood work done. A few days later, my doctor called me and told me I was positive for Lyme. I started immediately on a three-week course of antibiotics, Doxycycline. I feel that my - actually, my back pain seems to be a little bit less. I don't know if that's psychological or not, but it seems to be a little bit less. I'm glad that I have antibiotics to take; I know they'll do the trick, and I'll be fine. I know I will.
