11Heart issues
In a condition which is known as Lyme carditis, bacteria would invade and attack your heart tissues. The level of intensity would range from gentle to severe, depending on the stages and your body. As a result of bacterial interference, you would suffer from heart palpitations, shortness of breath, light-headedness, or chest pains. The inflammation triggered by the disease will block the transmission of signals between different chambers in your heart, thus causing it to beat irregularly. In addition, Lyme carditis could also have an effect on your heart muscles. While this can be a serious symptom, it is important to know that only 1% of reported cases involved carditis. The condition can also affect children. With the right treatment, you can recover from it quickly. [11]
