Lymes effect on heart
I am a 69 year old Australian male.I contracted Lymes disease after being bitten by a tick whilst on a holiday in Boston USA in August 2006.I was treated in Canada with 14 days of Doxycycline approx 10 days after noticing the Erythma on my back.I had a blood test when returning to Australia approx 4 weeks later and this confirmed I had the bacteria in my blood.I had a further 2 weeks of Doxycycline treatment.Recently in July 2008 routine fitness (stress)tests I had, showed that I have severe cardio myapathy.I had these tests because of a routine check up but did have slight breathing problems developing .Does anyone know of a link between heart problems and Lymes disease?
