hi everyone. My daughters who I gave birth to while sick with lyme, bartonella and babesia have varied symptoms of gastritis/gerd occasional pains, dizziness and fatigue in one daughter with psychiatric diagnosis and the tell tale stretch maks large and purple on inner thighs. Does that sound like bartonella? I was accused of ficticious disorder and kids now live with dad. I am not allowed unsupervised due to this. Its a nightmare. Does trhis sound like bartonella/lyme? there are more s/s but those are the major ones. Thanks any words of wisdom appreciated. I'm broken hearted feel I let them down. thanks

I don't think it matters at this point, right?
Sounds like you need to let this whole idea go for now as you've lost custody over it.
Can you see a counselor to help you? I'm so sorry--- helping yourself first will help them.

Im so sorry you have to go through this. Sounds like bart to me. Theres a pediatric doctor in albany that treats lyme but not only lyme but she would be able to tell you. PM me if you want the number. That is if your from wilton NY.

nursejed, I read your back posts, that's why I responded like I did-
I know how very difficult this has been, but your X husband went to court and got your now preteen kids away from you over this Lyme disease issue.
I have to assume the girls are doing okay, okay in school, not outwardly acting sick, otherwise the court wouldn't have agreed?
I cannot imagine the pain you are in. If it were me, I'd be doing whatever they said to get my kids back. If that meant dropping the Lyme disease instance,
and you are being told you have to, then LET IT GO. Work on getting more time with them, building a relationship with them.
The reality is, you may not get to say anything about their health until they are 18, and then it will be their decision what to do.
Meanwhile, this way is losing. So start doing it different, for your kids, so you can be closer to them.
