Just wondering what your symptoms are/were???

I looked at the following link about symptoms http://www.lymeinfo.net/coinfectionarticle.html

The only one I have is fatigue. I looked at the other co-infections as well and I don't have any of the symptoms.

Just trying to figure out if I have any co-infections.

I have an llmd appt in less than 2 weeks so I'll ask him about it, but just was looking for info here. I know how smart ya'll are!! [Big Grin]

p.s. One reason I've been thinking about co-infections is because my cd57 number was 174. I read somewhere if it is high and you feel bad to suspect co-infections.

Also I read that babs can effect your red blood cell count. Mine was a little low when I had my blood drawn.

What would your symptoms be?

It would be hard to pinpoint in any case, which coinfection produces specific symptoms.

So, exactly what are you presenting symptom wise?

Hi Lauren

It seems the symptoms vary alot from person to person similar to lyme.

I never got the dreching night sweats or the air hunger. It can get confusing as many of the lyme symptoms over lap with the babs.

My main symptoms where nausea,fevers& chills, fatigue neck & back stiffness. The fevers cleared after two rounds of treatment but the nausea and other symptoms are still hanging on & hard to get rid of. Not really 100% sure which are babs & which much are lyme.

But had I not done the treatment I would not have known my fevers where bab's related. I always thougyh they where a sypmtom of lyme.

good luck with your appointment.

Night sweats, air hunger (sometimes I would even hyperventilate), and heart palpitations ... also skipping beats.

These are going away with babs treatment.
