Help!

Hi Happy!

Take a deep breath! Whatever is going on with you will not be helped by freaking out. I do know it is frightening (I was just doing that last week)!

Odds our your treatment has triggered some nerve involvement. Often the immune system gets confused between the bacteria and your nerves because the bacteria cloaks itself in nerve sheath material among other things.

You might want to try a nerve detox agent like Pinella. If the problem continues you can give your LLMD a call.

Bart and Neuro Lyme can trigger those feelings. I still won't carry my phone in my pocket because I'd never know that it was vibrating because I'm so used to ignoring those feelings!

The stopping breathing thing though is a bit concerning. Do you actually stop breathing or is it air hunger? Air hunger is typically from Babesia and can be quite disturbing - it was for me anyway. Raising up my head and shoulders when I laid down really helped. I used a bunch of pillows - wrapped in a sheet to hold them in place - to raise up my upper body so that it was positioned like I was in a recliner and slept wonderfully. I did have to also used a large pillow (with another sheet to keep it in place) under my knees/rear end to keep me from sliding or scooting down in bed so that I laid flat again.

For me, air hunger occurred on exertion. You breathe very heavily and yet it brings no relief. I have had other breathlessness ( high altitude, viruses, being out of shape), but Babesia air hunger is different. It leaves you with nothing else to do but breathe. Or at least try to breathe.

I have the buzzing too as well as the tingling tongue. The tingling is still there but its been better. It started with a burnt feeling on my tongue which at first I thought was candida but then it developed into tingles. Sometimes I've had slight slurring. It's been going on for over a year and it waxes and wanes. It is sensory so maybe take some comfort in that. Mine started about six months into my treatment.
