Are your shins instantly painful to touch? Or do you need to apply some pressure?

For my daughter and me, our shins hurt without touching or pressure. For her, they were so painful she could only walk a couple of blocks before having to stop. At their worse, she could barely walk and had to soak them in a tall waste basket filled with ice water. Epsom salt baths also helped her after she started antibiotics.

For me it was all long bones in arms and legs. Most days the pain was consistent on both sides, whether walking or at rest.

In my case you have to press it in. Do you know what co-infection this is from?

My Bart shin pain is in the bones not so much skin. But my veins go OVER my shin bones. Not attractive.
And sometimes if I jiggle my foot, I can feel my tendons bouncing around like rubber bands. Weird. Never took flox's.
A well-know LLMD told the story of a Bartonella patient who was on a 3 antibiotic protocol. The LLMD decided to switch up the protocol with 2 new meds. The patient got confused with the new protocol and accidentally took old protocol meds with the news protocol meds.
A month later the patient reported "I am so much better!"
What would be considered an aggressive treatment turned out to be an appropriate treatment.

That’s a good story, and illustrates a common problem.
Being conservative is practicing good medicine. But for treatment failures, individuals who aren’t getting well, it just leads to extended illness and drug resistance.

My daughter was treated aggressively by a well-known bartonella LLMD but only got to the point where she could walk 4 blocks due to pain. I added in the full Buhner protocol for bartonella and two months later she walked all day at the Washington DC 4th of July celebration - pain free! Her LLMD would never acknowledge that it was the Buhner herbs that got her walking again.

That's a good plug for the Buhner herbs - thx, and congrats!
