I was diagnosed with Lymes/Bartonell/Babesiosis

after suffering for many years since giving birth to my first child. I felt wonderful while pregnant. My body started experiencing neurological pains all over. Muscles ache, Optic Neuritis, Reflex Sympathetic Distrophy, severe Fibromyalgia, Atypical trigeminal Neuralgia, atypical colitis, Sjogren's Syndrome, phneumonia several times, Fibrosis of the Liver, in constant Liver pain. In 1984 I was diagnosed with Probable MS. Nephrolithiasis with calcium Oxalate Stones, Sphincter of Oddi syndrome. I have also strictures in my bile ducts. Pass stones every two to three months. Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, removed my first Rib, left side, I have it bilateral. I was in extreme pain down my left arm and hand. I was also diagnosed with cholelithiasis and had my gallbladder removed. I broke the back of my head in August of 2007. Got 10 staples putted in without anesthesia. The ER doctor kept saying that I only needed 3 staples so anasthesia was not necessary. They did a CT scan to rule out a possible hematoma. I was fine with my head, however they found hyperdense bone lesions in my calvarium left and right, was told may represent a potential Neoplasm. Does anyone with Lymes have ever experienced bone lesions in the frontal calvarium? If so, please share with me your experience. I have headaches and my skull is numb, feels similar to wearing a 2" thick Helmet all around my head. Being thicker on the left side. There is also swelling of left posterior scalf soft tissue. Also I had a 24h Urine test for my hormones. Out of 20 hormones 13 were abnormal. Everyone of them was low. I also have elevated C4a 6399. Thank you for allowing me to share my history. I would appreciate any input you have for me. Love and Light, Elena {blue] :

I have been diagnosed with lyme/babesia and bartonella 9 months ago (I went undiagnosed for at least 10 months). All blood tests were positive.

I don't know if my story will help you or not. Once I got started on zithromax I herxed terribly but eventually the herx stopped and my symptoms stabalized better off than when I started, but no improvement on the brain symptoms. My headaches got better mostly and my throat issues.

After 3 months on zithromax I swithced. I then was on doxy, mino, malerone for three months. Again, after a month of herxing I stabalized only minorly better off than when I started the oral meds. At this point my chest pain was my major symptom (costra condritis).
Then I started IV Rocephin and Maleron. After a month of herxing my brain fog lifted and my crazy mood swings improved dramatically and the chest pain is almost gone. I was so happy, for a month my pain started to subside.

So now I am in month 3 of rocephin, I feel terrible, my spine is killing me and I have constant muscle spasms. My brain symptoms have stabalized at better than before I started rocephin but not entirely gone either. AFter 7 months on malerone I think the dosage is too low as I keep testing positive in the blood test for babesia, but my Dr. will not increase the dosage. So I started artimisin trying to boost my fight against the Babesia. My Bartonella also still tests positive so the dr. put me on minocycline and Rocephin at the same time.

At the moment I can't take the spinal pain so I stopped mino and I think I am going to stop the rocephin and see if the spinal pain gets better. I don't know what this spinal pain is all about but it is worse than anything I experienced even before I got treatment 9 months ago. Starting to get scared. If anyone know what the spinal pain is about I would love advice.
