Unclear: There is a lot of debate and controversy about chronic lyme disease. If you were treated early and correctly, you may not have any problems at all. If you were not treated there may be a variety of symptoms including fatigue, neuropathy (numbness or tingling of extremities), joint pain, etc. Again though, this is a controversial topic and there is a lot of disagreement amongst doctors.

It depends on...: If you were successfully treated within a short time of being infected there should be no further symptoms. If you are still infected symptoms are highly variable. Some with chronic Borrelia infection have no symptoms if they are otherwise healthy & have a strong immune system. Others develop fatigue, muscle & joint pain, poor memory & concentration, anxiety, depression, numbness etc. See comment:
