Flagyl-bad reaction and Babesia air hunger

Hi everyone,
I am somewhat new to this site. I was bit by a tick last May and got Lyme disease along with Mycoplasma. I was also diagnosed last month with Babesia. I had mild symptoms of it throughout the summer, but my original Fish test came back negative. We did it again in September to be sure, and it was positive.
I was started on mepron for two weeks with Zithromax both twice a day. After two weeks, my doctor added flagyl for 3 days a week to keep fighting the Lyme which shows to be partially still active in my system. She did this because I am allergic to ceftin. I had a bad reaction by the third day of flagyl. Lots of diarrhea and finally vomited. Went to te hospital for dehydration an ant nausea IV treatment.
I have now been off all meds except my probiotic for a week while they do allergy testing for omnicef and suprax to see if I can take them.
I am having really bad air hunger this afternoon and feeling a little panicked. I hope to be starting meds again by the end of this week. Does anyone have any tips on how to help the air hunger??
Starting to feel desperate for a breath.
Many thanks in advance.

When I have air hunger, I inhale vicks. I put it around my nose and on my chest. Peppermint might help or cough drops designed to open sinuses. I had to go to my doctor and get lorazepam. That helps by relaxing the bronchial spasms. For that matter, anything that relaxes bronchial spasms would probably help, although that is just my guess and I have not researched it.

I have had my oxygen saturation tested while I was having air hunger and it was fine. So its almost like you're getting air but it just feels like you're not. But I can't say that's the case all the time.

Hang in there,

KT
