Hi,

I do understand your pain and discomfort. I have seen many cases with similar complaints. As per your history, please find my advice below:

1) Do a Full blood count with differential

2) Do MRI scan to ruled out any spinal cord problem and do an ultrasound scan whole abdomen to ruled out kidney, liver and prostate

3) Check your[ sugar and TSH]

4) Take [ACTILAC capsules]once a day

5) Take full course of antibiotics in IV for Lyme disease
