Muscle/Tissue Loss and Deterioration?

I just looked at test .it said lgG/lgm presumtively possitive . And then lyme antibodies not reported

Miller yes it is ..its nucking futz..i think it is a bartonella and mycoplasm involvement. Mine started after i took bactrim for ear infection .did you have any trauma? Are yiu on steriods?..doxy may make it worse .i found a few people with this and made a new thread .do your hands look like this ? http://jnnp.bmj.com/content/63/2/257.full.
look it either nerve thing ,vasculitis or both.parasite involvement maybbe at play too.trying to do a stain to see if babesia is at play..david martz pioneered the tx and i am trying to consult his protoge
a friend with it that is a rn,did orals and hbot said it was iv h2o2 and bee venom ea 3x a week . She did 5 ml in dextrose and i can only find 2.5 i saline .so i have been doing herbs ,bvt ,rife ,oral abx ,iv ozone and h202 and it seems to have halted .the other person i talked to did a year of iv zith and lives on amox and it has halted . I saw spiro under microscopy. Id duc said it was a false positive .get a llmd or 2 and throw everything in the book .addes mms ivermectin ,iv silver ,Houttunyia. ...your life is at stake!

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone has had a muscle or deep tissue biopsy, and if so did it show anything? Anything unusual?? And has anyone tested such tissue for lyme (e.g. PCR)?

I'm trying to find a diagnosis for unusual muscular and neurological symptoms resulting in loss of fat tissue and muscle tissue over the last 5-6 years.

All tests so far (blood tests, MRI, PET-CT scan, spinal fluid) are non-conclusive. Blood tests are now showing elevated CK levels.

Thanks!

Yes it happens with lyme. There are probably multiple reasons why.

For me I "figured" out that it was about nerve health (or lack thereof). I started addressing this and this symptom halted (*knock on wood*). And then I started working out again and regained muscle mass back.

Perhaps you are experiencing something similar?

I have been dealing with drastic and rapid muscle loss for the past 6 years. This started mainly when I got put on corticosteroids (hydrocortisone). It’s gotta be my worst symptom along with air hunger. My air hunger is probably not babesia however. I only experience air hunger when I over exert myself and come to a resting point.

Anyway I do not have muscle weakness. I can flex, but my muscles have gotten so small. I was diagnosed with Lyme in 2012 with a blood culture test that came back positive after 10 weeks. The hydrocortisone however is what started the rapid muscle loss. At first I had lost 15lbs in 2 months. When I was able to take thyroid medication it slowed down the muscle wasting dramatically.

I eat a pretty decent diet. I use to eat a lot to try to counter the muscle wasting, especially protein and vegetables. I would lift weights, not heavy workouts but light. I would still end up losing muscle mass. I noticed in 2014 when I took a little silver that my muscles looked more plumpy for a few days.

I couldn’t handle it then. I’m considering returning to taking silver again however. Although at this point the air hunger is unbearable when I take supplements or anything like coconut oil (even a little bit).

I’m looking into bodybuilding approaches to counter the muscle loss. That and a consistent prayer life in Jesus Name to help me find answers.

Oh and Dacarte3 are you saying you addressed your nerves and that helped rebuild your muscles? Also how did you address your nerves?

You tested positive for lyme, and appear to have symptoms: muscle weakness, weight loss, air hunger, poor memory, GERD.


What did you do to treat lyme disease?
Did you see a LLMD?


If you still have those symptoms...I suggest you do treat.

I'mWhole,

It is extremely likely those symptoms you have are due to coinfections babesia and bartonella. Exercise and supplements and such will probably not make those symptoms go away, but effective treatment should.
