Best friend dropped dead from an unnoticed tick when she was 29. This was in northern Indiana 3 years ago. Hearing this doctor mention the muscle weakness made me remember her struggling to get her pony tail holder our of her hair.

My young son got Lyme disease in June of 2020. He had all the symptoms including the partial facial paralysis. Thank goodness we caught it early enough and he made full recovery.
