Is this bartonella thing worse than Lyme??????? I just looked at blood work results. My numbers are all over the place.


But when I clicked around on computer a lot of Bartonella info sounded relevant, and scary, and needs to get under control first...


Am I off base????


OK- Help_I'm freaking out [confused] , big time... Am so upset that there are so few doctors out there for this...and as I fight this, other big things are ignored. Health and other

It's worse, kicked Lyme 100% in 6 months. 3 years later still have 30% bartonella.

My bart symptoms are the worse! GI problems and peripheral neuropathy are my main issues.

Lymetutu, Yes , Dr K...But not getting info as it comes into him.. Like test...Charge for phone call to ask question etc.

I saw him Aug 16th. first time. I know they have lives and are busy. But I have questions,,,Like why I'm not bouncing back at all,like I used to when on abx. He has me on 3 ,high doses.

I did get some of my blood work copies. read last nigh and scarred the crap out of me.

What little I know about these things ,my CD57 has gone from 167 way down to 20 over the last year or so. Plus other markers.

I guess if I felt a bit better it wouldn't be so hard to wait. Next appt. Oct.4th...I told him at last apt how I've Fallon through the cracks so often and should we change the abx's I was on.


Plus I wish I knew what these other flags on test meant

and yes I'm having a bit of fun with the Graemlins. [dizzy] [confused] [confused] [loco] Thanks for being there....Nonna

I agree bartonella is worse than lyme. Babesia ties bart.

I hope you begin to get some relief. What are you taking for it?

You sure know your graemlins!

It takes a long time to begin feeling better. Do not dismay!! [Smile]

Bart is the worst imo

I've had most success with Coil machine & YL Oils (Oil of Oregano - rubbed on spine and bottom of feet - lots of it)

What test did you use fort Bart? How do you know if you have it?

I suspect I have babesia, and that's bad enough. Can babesia cause high anxiety, too?
Also, burning skin...Is that Lyme, bart, babs, and/or mycoplasma pneumonia?
 
Posted by Marcie (Member # 10070) on :
 
If your cd57 is low, that is supposed to be an indicator for active lyme. I think lyme symptoms can be just as bad as bart and babs.

It is easy to get confused with what symptom is from what illness.

@CherylSue- I have bad anxiety and burning skin, I do have lyme and babs. I can tell you when I treat babs my anxiety is really bad!

Hi Marcie,

Thanks. I deleted a few, so it should be okay now.
