Hi All: I tried to look this up with no avail.
Can anyone tell me if lyme or co's cause stomach pain and the most likely offender in your opinion.
Lastly, I believe because of eating pumpkin of late in protein shakes, I have flared my candida.
Candida can cause this as well, correct? Almost like my food won't digest, no real appetite and pretty much stomach pain - like a sour stomach most of the time.
Thanks for any and all insights. Just would love to know what I am dealing with most likely.
Thanks!

I feel like I am having a pretty bad bart flare in my feet as well. Can bart cause this? Honestly, it was one of my first symptoms when I got bitten - this stomach issue (never really knew which one it was). Started mhbot about 3 months ago so it appears the herxing is in full gear.
PS no more pumpkin - very sad one of the only carbs I can eat. But really, NOT worth it! JUST an FYI. Thanks Lyme Warriors.... YOU ALL ROCK!
Pain in my feet is in my arch(primarily left with some neuropathy- tingling primarily) and real pain that throbs -- I think that is it....

I haven't had any stomach pain, but intestinal Candida (and skin overgrowth) was a real challenge. Try adding no-flush Niacin (Nicotinamide/Niacinamide) to your daily supplements for Candida control. 3g/day did great stuff for me and quickly too.
I would also eat a tub of the fattiest balkan yogurt you can get your hands on. A probiotic too, with 50B CFU. If all that fails, break out some Gum Mastic and eat enzyme-rich foods like jam, pineapple, papaya, and s-h-i-t-ake mushrooms.
Hope this helps!

You are describing bartonella symptoms.
From Burrascano, page 24, describing bartonella symptoms:
"Other key symptoms may include gastritis, lower abdominal pain (mesenteric adenitis), sore soles, especially in the AM,....."
Bartonella gave me severe lower abdominal pain. It also caused gastritis.
I had a number of colonoscopies, etc. to try to find out what was causing the episodes of severe pain. Once, I went to the ER and they did a full body scan expecting to find appendix problems. Nope. Found nothing. And this was after I laid at home on narcotic pain killers for 10 days with this terrible pain.
It all went away when I got good lyme and bartonella treatment.
So, the pain can be from mild to severe.
The pain from candida is basically gas pain from the bloating that candida causes. When I had it, the pain was mild and continual (24/7 every day) for months until I diagnosed myself and got my so-called lyme doctor to give me an Rx for diflucan.
•Symptoms of gastritis are:
◦ indigestion (burning pain in upper abdomen or "pit" of the stomach),
◦ nausea or vomiting,
◦pain in the upper abdomen.
So, it sounds like you are suffering from gastritis due to bartonella.
