Hey Chris--I do know that alcohol is supposed to be intensified in people with Chronic Lyme Disease. Might want to do some research into "CLD symptoms" and see how you relate. Chris (also)

they had tested me for that about 4 months ago again.....seem to be testing me about every 3 to 4 months all over again..anyways thanks for the information...

I'm sure this isn't your circumstance, but we have had this occur on 3 different occasions:

1) Drinking during Avonex night.
2) Getting very overheated.
3) Day 3-5ish following a Novantrone infusion.

Perhaps #2 could apply. We need to be carfull in the summer. 30 minutes of gardening in 95 degree weather just about does it.
