Signs of Lyme Disease

5. Lethargy
It is not likely that we will be feeling at our best when we are ill, regardless of what the actual cause is. Patients with Lyme disease will also often be feeling quite lethargic and just not feel like doing anything much at all. This is beneficial in a sense because it is best that the patient gets as much rest as they can.
This is not just normal tiredness that you can expect to find in people at the end of the day. Rather, the patient will be feeling tired through all of the day regardless of how long they have rested. The extent of the fatigue means the condition can sometimes be misdiagnosed as chronic fatigue syndrome or similar.
