What are your symptoms and what are you treating with and is it getting better?

I have hot flashes (NOT sweats)
I have pain in my forehead and some pressure with eye pain,
I have anxiety
I have massive brain fog
I have chest tightness and rib pain (or all over chest pain and pain in the back)

Does this sound like babesia?

I also have foot pain, leg pain, and other bart symptoms

What are you taking for babesia and does it seem to be working?

I don't know for sure that I have babesia...no positive test...and i have clinically diagnosed myself. tongue


So, what I think are my babs symptoms:

- pressure in my head behind my eyes
- sweating
- shivers (or they're persistent bart)
- some low-level anxiety in spurts throughout the day.
- dysautonmia (pots)
- tinnitus (95% better)

I also think it's stopping the rest of my bart symptoms to resolve: Radiculopathy (nerve pain - left scapula, left arm and hand), foot pain, rib pain, short-term memory

Unless those are also babesia related.

I am taking Mepron - on a pulsed schedule - with minocycline and Artemisinin. I was recently taking Bactrim with it...but couldn't handle it.

I am going to be changing the minocycline to either doxycycline or azithromycin...or both..in a few weeks.

Not sure yet if it's working...been a few months on this. My tinnitus has improved since starting it...but that's about it.

I had mild air hunger, night sweats, minor chills in the beginning, I get a hot flushed feeling in my upper chest and head.


I have been on Malorone for 5 months for Babesia. I also take bactrim and azithromicin.

I do use the lyme and Bart Buhner protocols, but I'm not specifically on the Babesia herbal protocol.

However some of the herbals overlap, so related to a Babesia protocol I take cryptolepis, milk thistle, Sida acuta and Salvia miltiorrhiza.

My air hunger, and chills are gone. My sweats have increased, not in intensity but in occurrence.The darn heat flush I do still get around 2 times a week.

But I wonder if that is more to do with adrenals. Hoping to find out at llmd this Friday.

Hope this helps. Boy these infections can be complex and confusing.

Wishing you the best of healing. take care, Jo

goshawk, I may have asked you this before, but how many malarone pills do you take a day? I can't remember who I asked what.

I don't have classic symptoms but tested positive by DNA Connexions.

LLMD has me on malarone 2 xs a day but I've only been takinğ 1 a day because I suspect it's disturbing my sleep.

I see LLMD on Wed and will find out if I'm bad for not taking two.

It's been2 months and 2 more to go.

Changed my diet that took a lot of my symptoms away and i take RSO as well as a B12 supplement that's all. i can pass as normal doing just these things most days but this shooting pain isn't subsiding.
