Does Lyme Disease Cause Low BP, Blurred Vision And Dizziness?

My daughter (30 y/o) was recently diagnosed with lyme disease /w two co-infections. She has a multitude of symptoms, and just the last couple of days has been experiencing low blood pressure; 90/60 accompanied with her heart pounding in her chest, blurred vision, dizziness and lethargic. Is there anything I can do to help her feel better? I have her laying down with her feet elevated above her heart which seems to help a bit with the BP, but this is a scary situation and we aren't able to reach her doctor today for answers.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
She has lyme disease with two co infection. Hypotension is common in infection. Hypotension leads to blurring of vision and lethargy. She should take intravenous fluid and antibiotics. Take plenty of fluid orally.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
