Symptoms: Bacterial infection, Chills, Difficulty in walking, Fatigue, Folliculitis
Clinical narrative: In April, 1999, the pt received her 1st dose of Lymerix with no untoward effects. In May, 1999, she received her 2nd dose and on 6/19/99, after working outdoors the previous day, she experienced a rash between her big toe and 2nd toe "and a small bite on her hip". Over the next 2 days, she "experienced chills and uncontrollable shaking". She was treated with doxycyoline and Lyme disease test were performed. According to the note of her infectious disease specialist, she was hospitalized on 6/23/99 for this reason. The pt also had a fever, bull's eye lesions, and somewhat elevated liver function tests. The physician concluded "she had a component of human granulocyte ehrlichiosis plus possible Lyme disease manifested with her tick born febrile illness". She was treated with Rocephin, amoxicillin, Vioxx, levofloxacin, Celebrex and oral doxycycline and she had marked improvement of her symptoms to near baseline. The leukopenia and thrombocytompenia appeared to have resolved after treatment and completion of betalactam antiobiotic. However, in 11/99, the pt reported to her physician she had "increasing discomfort in her joints". At this time a Western blot for Lyme IgG antibody had 1 band at 41 kilodaltons, but the entire Lyme IgG Western blot interpretation was negative for anti Lyme IgG erythrocyte sed rate was 22mm/hr (normal). Follow-up notes 4 weeks later, reveals the pt claims to be "still very tired, aches all over, and it hurts to walk. It was alleged, at this point the physician considered "chronic Lyme arthritis" as a possible dx. The most recent information received on 6/26/00, reported on 1/11/00, the pt started Celebrex for empiric treatment of arthralgias and myalgias and had some relief of symptoms. She developed a very pruritic rash on her neck, buttocks, somewhat on her trunk and back of her legs. The physician believed the rash to be an underlying psoriasis, but he felt the lesions are most typical of a folliculitis, perhaps a pityorsporum folliculitis which could be related to her ungoing use of antibiotics.
