I notice that after I use the sauna, I occasionally develop red streaks on the right side of my stomach. The streaks fade pretty quickly (a few hours later).
At other times, I've noticed red bumps on the same side of my stomach. I have not tested positive for Bart--only Babesia and Lyme.
Does this sound familiar?

Sounds like bart to me

I thought bart streaks did not easily come and go. I would check in to that before assuming you have bart. Tha's a big leap. Bart meds are nasty and I would not want them if I didn't have to have them.
Just my opinion........... robi

Robi,
How would one know (definitively) if they have bart?

I showed some pictures of the red dots to my LLMD. She said that they were not consistent with Bart (or anything she was familiar with).
I don't have any pictures of the streaks yet.

As far as the red streaks, I have Bartonella and I noticed the "stretch mark" rash gets darker when I get out of a hot bath.
