Lyme Disease,Borreliosis.Has anybody suffered the long term effects of this disease.?

I had this illness for 7 - 8 years.I was crippled with arthritis,developed heart problems and eventually went totally nuts.Nobody here in Europe was able to find what was wrong with me,then eventually the problem was diagnosed in US.I would like to hear from those who've experienced similar conditions through disseminated lyme disease.

Lyme disease is an infection that derives from a tick bite. The disease has a variety of symptoms, including changes affecting the skin, heart, joints and nervous system. It is also known as borrelia or borreliosis.

Haven't had similar symptoms but have treated people who have.
lt's a relatively rare condition so it's no wonder you were misdiagnosed at our busy overworked Clinics! Glad you're better now, though.
Do you work with animals or just have pets?
