    I'm sorry to hear about your struggles. Doctors seem not to care probably because they can't get their hands on a possible solution probably because your symptoms are puzzling to them. Also, not having a positive result to work with adds to the puzzle. Signs are easier than symptoms to work with.

    I have few questions for you though. Do you exercise? Are you aware of your sleep position? Do you assume a good sleep position or are you a terrible sleeper? If you sleep in awkward position, that might explain your neck pains and the stiffness. Overall body pains might be because, like me, you seldom exercise. Try increasing your physical activities, in the form of jogging, using a thread mill. I hope my suggestions work for you. Good luck!

      The characteristic symptom of Lyme disease is a bull's eye kind of rash formation somewhere on the body. So, if you don't see that then it's definitely not it. As for lupus erythematosus, it produces some dermal lesions.

    Actually there are many people who test positive for Lyme even without seeeing the bullseye rash. Get tested.
