Clinical narrative: In February, 1991, the pt experienced hair loss and there has been little improvement. It is still thin. No treatment. She also experienced chronic fatigue (variously dx'd) which began at the end of 2/91, became more severe over time (1994-1997), slight improvement and reached a plateau until began treatment with doxycycline 100mg X 2 daily. After 6 weeks, there was some improvement to the extent that there were no days when I was unable to do anything. I also had nerve and muscle damage and blackouts. It was diffuse at first and seemed to be joint or bone pain. Over time it became more concentrated and wasn't in the joints but in the area of both elbows and both buttocks and hit all 4 places every time. The pain is very severe, hot and burning. My HMO doctor finally received authorization to repeat the EMG test which I did and which showed nerve and muscle damage. The blackouts lasted about 2 hours each time and were preceded by a fist-like pain in my head about 5-10 minutes before. After regaining consciousness, I would be too weak to climb 7 short steps to my bedroom or to eat. I had to sleep on the couch. This stopped within 4 days of self treatment taking 2000mcg of Vitamin B-12/day. I reported this to a doctor and he simply told me to stop taking it. I have tried stopping perhaps 3 times when I was feeling better, but started to feel pain in my head and went back to it. I am still taking it daily.
