I've been diagnosed with Lyme and Bartonella, and have been infected since childhood(33 now). I've always noticed being weak. Things like never being able to throw a baseball far, or serve overhand in volleyball, pushups, just tired easy, bad coordination, ..., all things that have gotten worse over the years.

I don't believe I've ever felt truly healthy, or strong(not neccessarily sick, just not up to par, and no muscle), and that has kept me from participating in certain things my whole life. My question is for people in treatment/remission. Has anyone experienced these symptoms, and after treatment felt stronger than they ever have before? Or is the best I can hope for to get back to what I thought was healthy.

I hope I'm phrasing that right...hopefully you guys get what I'm trying to say. Thanks for any input!

Well, I can tell you that I experienced periods of this, and the longer I was ill, the longer the periods of that weakness would get as well.

Now being healed, I do have more strength on a regular basis. Chances are that healing will bring new strength once it's built up to.

You're among friends here, Sooverthis!! Your phrasing was just fine.....unless I misunderstood!! LOL! turn

Thanks Trav, you understood fine :)! I want to look forward to feeling better and stronger than I ever have, but I want to be realistic as well. In the big scheme of things, I'd be happy to get back to pre crash days if that's the best I can do...I just really want to be 100%...I don't think I've ever felt that, and I really want to...who doesn't though?

You probably understand that better than most. You were infected with more things, and for a longer period of time...it gives me hope seeing that you over came!

If I did have Lyme 20 some years ago, and I'm pretty sure I did, then I got treated by a classical homeopath and did feel better than ever after going through the treatments. I think that is why my infection isn't real bad this time around. Homeopathy is based on the totality of your symptoms, not the name of the illness, so I got well in spite of no diagnoses. Now I just can't find a homeopath as good.

Well, I don't know that I understand it any better, but having been ill for so long and being active on a forum for so long can sure give a person a different perspective!

The fact that I can spread a little hope is what this is all about for me! I really believe that "all" a person has to do is find the protocol that their body can work with, balance out the body, and give the body what it needs to function and heal and it will! :-)
