What Causes To React Differently To External Temperatures While Having Neuro Lyme?

I have neuro Lyme and noticing that I m reacting differently to external temperatures. A hot towel on my back felt cold. Should I be concerned? Also, I have been recently using a Infra-Red Sauna and it takes about 15 minutes to break a sweat at 120 degrees. I am a 48 years old female and been diagnosed for 3 years confirmed with rash and blood work.

Hello,

Yes, your symptom seems like neuropathy. Neuropathy condition is a condition of damaged your sensory or motor nerves, and if your nerves will damaged then your sense to feel anything like hot and cold will decreased day by day. There are a variety of treatment available for neuropathy that range from oral medications, creams to special diet and therapies that stimulate the nervous system. There are two standards of management of Lyme's disease. There are two approaches views are to treat the Lyme's disease:
* For early Lyme disease - A shorter strong course of antibiotics is thought to suffice in treating Lyme disease.
* For chronic or late stage - It is important that treatment is started early, as earlier the treatment for Lyme disease, the more successful the result is. However you may be treated with short term antibiotic shots and then will treated the symptoms you are experiencing.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
