Yes the ooo's play games with me to, part of why I like it... I can relate to that feeling of running out of the day time strain, even its only for a few days. For the pain, the Indica will work well, as that's what I did when I didn't have a day strain available. As for the energy part, I don't know how functional she needs to be, but if she is as sick as I would imagine, I think getting the oil into the system is good even if its indica during the day. Resting is never bad with Lyme, accelerated healing when you sleep and such. Good Luck
