My "Lyme Comas"


  I am wondering if anyone else in the Lyme world has this happen to them.  Sometimes, in the afternoon only, I go into this very deep sleep. I call them my Lyme Comas. It lasts from 2 - 4 hours. I am either somewhat aware of people around me but cannot respond to them, or I don't hear anything at all. When I wake up, I feel like my brain has 'reconnected' itself and I can think better than before I fell 'asleep'. This is not a typical nap, which I do everyday. This is a much deeper experience and one I cannot wake myself out of on my own. The effects don't last forever, but there is a definite healing occurring during this experience. Anyone else?
