| Ending treatment |

|
You
have prepared yourself, made informed decisions, and actively
participated in your treatment. As your treatment nears its
end, you may experience many feelings, just as you did when
you were informed of your Lyme disease diagnosis. You are
not alone. There are thousands of individuals with Lyme disease
in the United States.
As your last treatment is completed, you may expect that things
will suddenly return to normal and you may go back to your life
as you knew it before you were diagnosed with Lyme disease. You
may discover, persistence or recurrence of some symptoms. Get enough
exercise. Take one thing at a time. |

|
Learn to pace yourself. If you're feeling
overwhelmed, divide your list into manageable pieces.
A major concern for Lyme disease patients is that their Lyme disease
will recur. As your antibiotic treatment comes to an end and the time
for your final visit approaches, you may feel anxious. Be comfortable
discuss remaining symptoms with your doctor. You should consult your
physician if the symptoms recur.
