Hi :)
I have a news.
Today my tests are ready from the lab.
I have no lyme, but they are possitive for bartonella - a very high titter and for ureaplasma.
I curious - can be bartonella without lyme , and can bartonella cause sush neurologycal symptoms like mine.
Can it be cured???
Next week I`m going to meet my LLMD and to speak about the treatment.

Have i nice day

Hi, I am sorry to hear that you have these infections.
It does give neurologycal symptoms, I'm not sure what are yours, but it can definitely mess up with our nerves.
I didn't do blood test, but based on symptoms I am pretty sure that I also have Bart.
There are some abx combinations that are given for Bart. It is stubborn and the treatment is long, but I think it can be cured.
Keep us updated when you got news from your LLMD.
Best of luck!

Corwin was this an Igenex test?

Symptoms of a Bartonella infection include fever, fatigue, malaise, swollen lymph nodes, joint aches and swelling, neurological abnormalities, and skin rash or markings.

I am curious as to what your LLMD will say.

I think not having lyme is awesome!

Bartonella can come without lyme. We can get it from cats.

But, I wouldn't just go on the testing...it's not reliable. lyme test could easily be a false negative.

Yes, bart can cause neurological symptoms. Anxiety is one of them.
Nervous system symptoms are common for bart.
Do you have the vibrations?

Some more symptoms to add to PeteZa's list: rib pain, foot pain

yes I have a lot of tremors - whole body shaking and whole body rapid muscle twitching.
It was flurescent test that detect Bartonella.
Lyme also negative - it was special clinic for lyme testing in Bucarest.
I haven`t remember a tick bite, but i was scratch numerous times by cats , dogs, fleese, animals and so...
Just hoping Friday LLMD says that this is the reason for my neuro problems and can be cured :)

I've been treating bart since end of August, 2015. I have taken a couple breaks of a few weeks during that time.
But, this past week, I have felt some improvement....so I'm hoping I'm on the up-trend to healing.

I am looking into Babesia treatment in a few weeks...

I had tremors early on, too...oh and body wide twitching...Sometimes the twitching on my 'bad arm' would be almost stuck for a few seconds in the 'twitch' mode - hard to explain what I mean...when it twitched - it stuck sometimes..instead of the rapid twitching...sorry - that doesn't really explain it well.

Good luck with everything, corwin!

It sounds like your LLMD knows what he/she is doing.

I hope you are already detoxing. If not, please review this link and slowly add a few things for detoxing...and continue to add to your daily detoxing protocol:

And, here's a link to a recent thread wherein members shared what they're doing for detoxing:

Another good thing to do is maintain a symptoms/treatment journal. It will prove very helpful for you and your LLMD.

It's too hard to remember how we responded to this treatment or that treatment....and we sometimes don't realize we've improved. A symptoms journal will help with all of that.

Once again, good luck! You're on your way to healing!!
