Lyme's disease also known as Erythema chronicum Migrans, is a multisystem infectious disease caused by the spirochete "Borrelia burgdorferi" which is transmitted by "Ixodes" tick, with both specific and nonspecific manifestations. Nervous system involvement occurs in 10%-15% of untreated patients and typically involves lymphocytic meningitis, cranial neuritis, and/or polyradiculitis. Here, we are reporting an interesting and challenging case of Neuro-Borreliosis in a young officer cadet, meeting the description for Bannwarth's syndrome and presenting initially as a surgical emergency followed by paraparesis. The diagnosis was finally clinched based on clinical profile of Chronic Myeloradiculopathy with focal myositis in the setting of recent outdoor camping, and confirmed by demonstrating high IgG antibody titres in serum and Cerebro spinal fluid (CSF). The officer cadet was treated successfully with a 6 week course of Ceftriaxone and Doxycycline, and went back to full training.
