Long(ish) story short. Had a bullseye rash in May + Lyme symptoms. Took standard 21 days of Doxy and felt better. Once I was off meds, started getting symptoms more indicative of Bartonella. Haven't tested positive for Lyme or Bart (Quest) but am treating Bart with herbs and Rifampin now based on my symptoms.
Back in December, I tested positive for H. Pylori bacteria - was tested after experiencing Ulcer like symptoms. Is it in my best interest to treat this bacteria now, or wait until after I feel better from Bartonella or whatever else is causing symptoms! (Burning and tightness in legs, headache.) Is there a chance H. Pylori is making this worse?
Also going to see an allergist soon to rule out any sort of food / environmental allergy. Figure it can't hurt.
Anyone had H. Pylori and felt better after eradicating it?
Thank you!
