Hi guys, I had also been experiencing these awful issues for about 2 years. I'm a 28 year old guy, who was previously very active and relatively healthy. I have a history of acid reflux and hives on...
I actually have some of the same concerns as I own a cat as well and am not responding well to my Lyme treatment. Does anyone know if this can be passed on by a cat? I suspect I may have bart too....
Hey Sarah, I am seeing an LLMD. I'm currently being treated for suspected Babesia (not confirmed) and Lyme. Antibiotics include Biaxin/Mepron/Doxy. I'm also including various other supplements and a...
I'm right there with you. Basically I'm on house arrest due to the constant exhaustion, headaches and balance issues. I just wish I had something to call it. I'm not sure if I should be seeing other...
Jeff, it's funny because I tried taking my morning 200mg doxy just a few days ago on an empty stomach, and it was ROUGH. I didn't hurl, but I was close. I will not be doing that again....
Jeff - I'm really happy you've found a solid LLMD to help you get some answers. The blisters on my hands have almost completely disappeared (after almost a year with having them). I think the...
Thanks a lot for the reply Revive. I've had these symptoms long before I began treatment. I had a rough few initial weeks on the antibiotics but my body seems to be dealing with them alright now. I...
I’m really hoping someone can relate to the symptoms I’m suffering with. I have an overwhelming fatigue and I develop bad headaches/head pressure within a minute of standing up and walking. If I walk...
Cool, thanks for the update. I'm still wondering how this is related. I've heard Bartonella can cause some similar symptoms?...
Traveler, Yeah, my initial instinct when the peeling began was that it was some type of dermatitis or psoriasis. I went to several dermatologists who prescribed me creams/lotions. Nothing helped....
Thanks for the reply Jeff. It took them almost 2 weeks to get my results back :/. I believe the lab is in CA (I think), so if you're closer than I am, you may get them quicker - I'm in VA. Good luck...
I never saw a bite either. I live in Virginia but last summer I attended several outdoor music festivals, one specifically where it was very wet and rainy. I honestly have no idea how else I could...
Hey Jeff, you just commented on one of my threads about Peeling skin. Your situation seems weirdly similar to mine (almost identical), you should shoot me an email (it's visible in my profile). I am...
Man, that's really really weird. Mine is also worse on my left hand, and usually happens around the base of my palms, but it creeps all the way up my hand and sometimes even near my fingers. I too...
I've been having daily skin peeling of my palms for about 8 months now. They start as small pin sized bubbles of skin, then lift and peel throughout the day. New ones appear almost every day. I'm...
Thanks so much for the comment, I'm glad to hear that you're noticing some changes after 6 weeks. I understand that 4 weeks isn't enough time, it's just such a tough process after having these...
I'm on a treatment right now for Lyme but am still skeptical about my diagnosis. I can't seem to find anything that fits my symptom set, and I need help bad. I've been dealing with these symptoms for...
Thanks for the quick reply Beth. I guess I'm most worried about these being false positives somehow. Does that happen frequently? Also I'm not sure what to make of the IND results. I've been...
Hi everyone, I'm trying to get a better understand of what my results mean. I had a short phone call with my LLMD then received the results in the mail. I have a follow up on the 9th, but am antsy to...
Hi guys, I finally spoke with my LLMD yesterday and they gave me a few verbal results over the phone from my IGeneX testing. I'll be receiving the full results in the mail later this week and have a...
As promised I’m back to give an update after seeing an LLMD. She didn’t really say one way or the other if she thinks this is most likely Lyme, but I’m having a few IGeneX tests run. These...
Thank you for the very informative post. IgG vs IgM is making a bit more sense to me now. I'm wondering how likely the IgG tests were false positives though? I guess it's better to just wait and see...
Thanks so much for the response and the warm welcome. I managed to get an appointment for next Wednesday, so I will definitely be sharing my experience from that visit next week. I too have read...
I’m a 26 year old male living in Northern VA. I wanted to share some test results with you guys to see if you had any insight for me. I have no recollection of a tick bite, but I did attend several...
