sleep problems

Hello, Bearriz Blancas. Welcome to the forum.

Do you mind sharing what antibiotics you were on and for how long?

Some folks have severe sleep issues. It is one of the notable symptoms of babesia. Were you treated for babesia?

Hopefully some others will post about what has helped them with sleep. Do you have insomnia, or are you unable to sleep because of pain?

This is Dr Steven Harris' strategy when it comes to his patients and sleep issues:

"My approach to treating insomnia is to start by giving my patients one sleep remedy at a time, and then adding others as necessary, by “stacking” them up, one on top of the other, until patients are able to sleep well. I start by recommending natural remedies such as glycine, L-theanine and GABA. Dr. Zhang has a fantastic product called Herb Som, which contains schizandra. To overcome insomnia, it is important that those with Lyme find supplements that promote their GABA pathways.

If the natural remedies don’t work for my patients, then I will prescribe them pharmaceutical drugs. I will basically do everything under the sun to get them to sleep, so if the drugs don’t work, then as a last resort, I will refer them out to a psychiatrist for a prescription of Xyrem, which seems to help when all else fails."

Another thing that might be worth looking into is LDN. Have you effectively treated the infections? do you still have other symptoms? if so, you may want to consider rotating into some new treatments.
