Mycoplasma and RMSF Symptoms - What have you experienced? (Updates from Follow-Up)

Hey All,

I hope you all are doing as well as possible. I am wondering about the symptoms you all have dealt with with Mycoplasma and RMSF. I have had high mycoplasma on every test for over 10 years and then just recently tested positive for RMSF last summer. My doctor is wondering if my symptoms are related to these two infections that can cause cardiovascular issues. The symptoms I've been having are:

-Fast Heart Rate
-Vertigo/Dizziness (BPPV Diagnosis 10/23)
-Anxiety
-Muscle pain in neck and by ears - tight
-Ear pain
-Chest/Rib Pain
-Lymph Swelling

Thank you all! I have a follow-up with the doctor tomorrow and will of course be bringing all this up

Thanks Girlie for bumping it!

My doc is fairly certain I am in a MCAS flare with POTS and wrote up a plan today on how to calm it down.

We're still leveling out my thyroid and slowly just trying to figuring it all out. So much going on with MTHFR genes, RMSF, Mycoplasma, and just Lyme and all of it. Hoping to start seeing some improvement soon. She also thinks my husband has Lyme as he's seeing her now too and is starting treatment with him. So happy to be back with a LLND. So much more helpful. Got an appointment with a LL cardiologist on 5/2 as well to rule out anything scary. She's super thorough. I love it!

Thank you again for your support!
