Does anyone know if this symptom is caused by
the borrelia or one of the co-infections?

Thanks

I am really not sure if is is caused by Bb or a co-infection.

My 2 sons and myself have LD & Bart, we have all had cracking, popping joints for some time, although it has gotten better for all of us being on Mino, which hits both lyme & bart.

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful,
Lisi

Hi All

Babs caused 80% of my cracky joint problems-

Now my joints are perty much pain free--Jay--

I had severe joint pain and terrible popping joints for years. I was treated for Lyme and Babs and it went away now the popping has come back with sporadic severe pain.

My LLMD is retesting me for Babs, he isn't sure if the Babs is back or if my Lyme is still hanging in.
My last Babs test was neg and my CD57 was only 19 but within the last 5 months since that test more things are pointint towards Babs [Frown]

I wish it were clear cut.

My LLMD told me mine was from inflammation.

They're called crepitations.
