Up in the middle of the night with ear pain

Are you being treated for babesia? Babesia can be a cause of tinnitus.
As for the pain under your ear, that could be a lymph node...

I have had this head/ear/lymph pain from the beginning. The most helpful for quick pain relief was a frozen gel pack wrapped in a towel and placed on the hurting part. When I tired of that I would stand in the shower and let the cool water pound on the hurting head.

I tried the ibuprofen, upping the Japanese Knotweed and upping the Red Root. Only relief was something cold.

I hope you find what works for you. This symptom was horrible for me!

Thanks, Peetza I did use the search. I started to open them and got a bit overwhelmed (at 3 in the morning). So I decided to write a new post. Have you had a doctor look at your ear and say, "I just don't see anything?" Also I am taking to tablespoons a day. In in the morning and one at night. I don't think I could manage another at work. And, my bowels would really be angry. What do you put the JK in? The best for me has been a chocolate protein shake with organic peanut butter in it. The taste is terrible otherwise and it burns my throat.

I don't think I have babs, or bart. But I have been positive for CPN, which could explain the ear. But I am frustrated that there is nothing there to see.

I was at my dentist today (changing out my fillings) and he x rayed and found nothing that he could say would cause it (sometimes dental problems cause ear problems). I have been playing phone tag with my lldo. Ugh. I hope I sleep tonight. At least the numbing from the filling exchange took my mind away from it for a while.

Thanks for the responses. It is always appreciated.

The doctor saw nothing when he looked in my ears. I made him look twice. I also had a brain scan. I take the Japanese Knotweed and about 12 other tinctures all in one glass with a splash of water. I then quickly drink another mouth full of water. I do not do this slowly. The herbs barely have enough time to touch my tongue or throat. It can be yuckie, but they are what are healing me so I am able to bear it. There are times when I shudder at taste but that short shudder outweighs lyme symptoms in my world.

For whatever it's worth, healthy people are walking around with asymptomatic Babesia infections. Even the CDC acknowledges this on their website:

www.cdc.gov/parasites/babesiosis/

"Although many people who are infected with Babesia do not have symptoms, for those who do effective treatment is available."

As you know, these bugs form biofilm with each other. Treating for coinfections can make Lyme more vulnerable to treatment.

My LLMD remained insistent that I'm only dealing with Lyme. Yet he couldn't explain why I was having trouble shaking the mild peripheral nervous system symptoms I had after going off abx and after almost 6 months on the full Cowden protocol.

Since I had some hot flashes on Cowden's Babesia-specific herbs, I decided to switch to a more expanded Babesia protocol to see what happened.

Treating for Lyme, Babesia (and Bartonella) are what are bringing me to healing.

Ok. I will check this out. I loaned out my buhner book. Does anyone know the recommendation?

Thank you for that. ☺️

Thank you for being so thorough.

Not any more. I stopped the antibiotic treatment in November and transitioned to Buhner protocol. I was on Zithromax from March to November. But I had been on that same Lyme cocktail before that included zith.
