Just wondering what YOUR symptoms are. I have extreme dizziness with lots of tinnitus as well as a tight feeling in my chest that comes and goes as well as abdomenal pain and was wondering if maybe this is babs..
thanks for your help

Thanks for your replies. Do you ever have like a dizzy feeling in your head even when just sitting still...like a quick spin in your head?

YES While laying in bed...as if my brain has done a somersault. It goes away with treatment.

Profound fatigue, chills during day, sweats at night, muscle pain. I 've been having dizzy spells lately...didn't know that was Babs.

omg- yes! I describe it as a "quick spin" as well. Never heard anyone else use that term but me!
I also have the rocking back and forth when I sit or try to stand still. The only time I do not have it is when I can sit in a soft deep chair or lie down.

all of the above as well, although I can't say for sure they are babs. They are not going away with lyme treatment and I've VERY aggressively treated bart.

Me too. I've had horrific air hunger, and dizziness (the quick spin description is perfect). I get this off and on.
Headaches, profuse and drenching night sweats and unbearable fatigue, although that is lifting a bit now.
Plus what feels like sinus pressure, but isn't and really blurry eyes (getting better and maybe Lyme is to blame for that, I don't know.)

These are symptoms I share with others who posted here: muscle pain, headaches, heart palpitations, tinnitus, a tight feeling in my chest that comes and goes, abdominal pain, chills during day, sweats at night,sinus pressure, blurry eyes, floating feeling. I also have been anemic a couple of times, and bruise with no injury.

How funny, I call it Elevator head. It (to me) is the same feeling you get in your stomach when an elevator stops quickly, only in my head. Yuck.

Yes, pretty much all of the above here....since I started treating babs (low doses of herbs) the vertigo/dizziness, weakness has increased.
Beyond exhausted, achy everywhere, feverish, especially in the eve and upon waking....severe flu feeling everywhere. Sometimes chills. Migraines/headaches have been constant for years.
Also difficulty breathing. I have found something to help the breathing difficulty/tightness in chest: Dr. Christopher's lung and bronchial formula....it's a non-alcoholic tincture. I take literally 3 drops at a time (it contains lobelia as well as several other herbs.) This seems to help the feeling of breathing difficulty. I purchase this via iherb.
Grogginess/brain fog and nausea as well.
Finding relief by slowing down and not asking so much of myself.....being even more gentle with the body.
Peace, ease....
