my symptoms for the past year are as following: woke up with terrible anxiety out of nowhere, shortness of breath all the time, depression, night sweats/day chills. never can breath right, always feel like I cannot get any air. Tested through Igenex, positive to babesia duncani, still waiting lyme results. Are these all symptoms of the babs? Oh and I forgot to mention the terrible panic attacks off/on for a year. Feel like I am losing my mind. Babesia duncani came back 40. llmd said she will treat but not sure all these symptoms are related to babs because of their intensity and how long I have had them. any ideas?

Those do sound like babesia symptoms. Air hunger and night sweats always seem to be listed on the symptom checklists for babesia, along with depression. Anxiety and panic might be a symptom too.
Hope you feel better soon!

I've had Lyme and bartonella for at least 8 years. I probably had babesia too, but I never tested positive. I've tried several treatments, and had several times when I thought I was better, but I just kept relapsing.
I started Buhner's herbal protocol in March of 2016, (plus other herbs that I found out about), and now I am finally getting somewhere.
I'm basically trying everything that I think will help because I really want to get better.
For a while I was too sick to even use my computer. Now I can do a lot of things, but I can't overdo it because I feel like I'm coming down with the flu a lot of the time (even though I'm not). It's better than it was though.
