I was having some pretty serious blood pressure issues over the course of a couple of days and soon noticed my palms and soles of my feet were very sore, red and swollen...

I went to the ER and they treated me with antibiotics through an IV and gave me a 21 day perscription as well. I think I pretty much did away with the symptoms, but the doc said there were many cases of "chronic lyme" which can come back from time to time.

I actually didn't test positive for lyme at the time, and he said it could have been rocky mountain spotted fever, but my lyme tests come back positive now.
