3 years ago I got ehrlichiosis, which is similar to lymes but on a whole other level. You do not know pain until you are throwing up and #^&#^&#^&#^&ting yourself at the same time, while sweating to death with a 104 degree fever.
I had bacterial meninjitis 36yrs ago when I was 14,very similar symptoms to your ehrlichiosis.To find out I had it I had to have 4 spinal taps and that was a pain beyond any pain I've ever experienced,even when compared to broken bones because I knew it was coming.There was permanent damage from the meninjitis that will last my lifetime.

The lyme wasn't as bad as that but its the worst I've felt in the past 36yrs from an illness.
