Babesia treatment = limited diet

I'm still having problems eating. There's only a couple things I can eat that actually agree with me. If I try anything else, it doesn't agree with me at all.

I'm now down to just chocolate raw milk, organic crackers, cheese, fig jam and raw milk yogurt. I thought I could add in some potato and sweet potato...but that didn't go well. And adding in whey protein almost got very messy.

I skipped my artemisia this week, hoping I'd recover and be able to eat normally. But all I got was some nasty babesia herxing and no improvement in this eating thing. I know this isn't healthy...but I wind up feeling pretty awful if I deviate from this. It's driving me a bit crazy, since I know this isn't a healthy diet and I need more diversity than this.

Just kinda curious if this is normal for babesia treatment. I think I'm about a month into treatment with artemisia. I've been on sida, alchornea and cryptolepis for over a year now.

Yeah, I've been eating chicken soups and oils for weeks now. Not sure what's causing the food issues for me, but, yeah, sucks being so limited. Same here. Every so often, I'll convince myself to eat some stuff I know I shouldn't, then suffer for it for the rest of the day, even into the next.

I had some carrots last night, got all nauseous, gave me that wet sort of feeling in your mouth that you get before you puke. I managed to keep my dinner down though. Thankfully, 'cause I can't afford to waste the calories.

Anyway, yeah, gonna be trying some antifungals this month, see if an overgrowth could be the cause.

Enough about me though.

Many sorry's for the troubles. Good luck to you. Hope something turns on a light, as far as figuring what exactly is at the root of this, and getting it treated.

Thanks everyone.

I thought things were getting better. Had a fruit and veg smoothie with dinner (kale, carrots, berries and grapes). I felt pretty decent after I had two glasses last night. Also felt ok when I woke up.

Just got back in from playing with the mini horses...and I feel awful. Nauseous and the liver pain thing is bothering me. My dad made pasta and sauce for lunch....something I normally love. Really want to have some, but I think I'll hurl if I do. Really annoyed.

Guess it's back to crackers and water.

Feel like I need to detox more.....but it's just too darn hot and humid here to think about taking a bath.

So sorry Sayyadina. Hang in there, it's a good sign that you were able to tolerate the smoothies. It's an extra boost of nutrients that you lost when things were worse. I'm scared about what kind of treatment is in store for my babesia now and how I'll react! Fingers crossed.
