This is such a relief. I've been struggling with meds because I have no appetite and food just turns me off.

It's a very clear Babesia symptom for me.

So nice to have an appetite for a change. And maybe a sign of progress!

Boxermom,

That is wonderful you have an appetite again. I know all too well what that is like, even without being on meds.

So what meds are you doing that are helping this?

I have been trying to treat babs but cannot get to a good dosage because everytime I go up, I get neuropathy. I then have to back down.

What's interesting is that when I am slightly increased with the meds, my appetite gets slightly better.

That;s great Boxermom. Mine has been back for a couple months myself and it is a great feeling.

I do believe it is a sign of progress!

I'm on Tindamax and Malarone. Nystatin for yeast. Lots of herbs.

Artesunate from hepalin.com has made a huge difference. I've been trying the stronger Artemesia derivatives. Artemether was super strong but made me nauseous.

GSE and Sida Acuta are still very powerful for me.

An herbal antimicrobial blend called Dragon Pearls.

Berberine.

Yeast Ease from Jernigan.

Today is my last day on this protocol. I start Primaquine/Chloroquine this weekend.

Very cool!

I went full 'Paleo' a few days ago, and I can't believe how much I am eating!

Despite waves of fatigue, it feels pretty good! Be interesting to see if I can gain and keep a few pounds on,

I am eating like I haven't since I was pregnant years ago, lol.
It's given me a great appetite. Could be yeast clamoring to live, tho, hmmm. Not giving in!
