Hi, I haven't been diagnosed with Lyme but i'm pretty sure thats what all my numerous weird symptoms are.
The one that bothers me mainly because its visable is sweating....even when i'm not doing anything say watching TV i'll have sweat running off my forhead, also if I wake up in the middle of the night my t-shirt will be absolutely soaked.
Anyone else experience this?

It sounds like babesia.
Make sure you see a llmd to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.

Hi AZ
Yep I agree Look into Babs--
overall heavy sweating and Especially Night Sweats are inductors of Babs-
Check your Temp several times aday- Low temp is also inductor of Babs - usually 97 to 94 degrees
Babs is Very Common you get several bugs from one tick bite- -Jay--

I never knew about the low temp thing and now I understand why my temps are 96 most of the time because so far my thyroid is doing good. I am on my second round of babs.

My daughter's is consistently 96-97. AND sweats! She was treated for bartonella for a year, now we are starting babesia treatment.
It's no picnic.

thanks for the private message, I don't know any LLMD in Arizona. I didn't pick up this thing in Arizona I was living near Philadelphia in the late 80's and i'm pretty sure thats when I picked it up. I remember a rash and shortly after that real bad heart palpitations, and then constantly headache's and eye floaters appeared.
I was having a house built and remember walking through some really tall grass staking out the boundries it was shortly after that when all this started. Never saw the tick though that I can remember.

Yup - Philadelphia, PA is a PRIMO spot to pick up this sort of thing. See my signature for details.
I agree that it sounds like babesia. Post on the Seeking a Doctor forum to find a LLMD in AZ. I think there are a few folks here who are in AZ, though most picked up Lyme before they got to AZ.
