Okay, I remember reading through posts here a couple of months ago about llmds recommending their patients to avoid mg. if you have babesia- that mg. feeds babesia.

Are there any articles or info. on this? I can't find anything online and my LLMD doesn't believe it.

Thanks

My LLMD told me to take lots of mag, that it is a very good thing. I do, and I am not having any symptoms from the babs. I am positive for Babs WA-1.

On the other hand, if I do not take magnesium, I get cramps in my feet and calves.

I find that adding extra magnesium to my babesia regimen

Helps lessen the tachycardia issues and palpatations.

I have not been told to keep magnesium from my treatment for babesia by my LLMD.

Hugs,

Geneal

Thank you all for posts on this subject!

I never even thought about the rambling as a lyme symptom! Now it all makes sense to me.

I have lost friends in the past few years. And never knew what I had done to have this happen.

I had a sense that I was making them uncomfortable....then they would never call me again, or try to keep the friendship going.

I have been abandoned. Felt rejected. Now I believe I have unknowingly done this with my openness and dialogue.

Although I do know I speak the "truth" too openly. I am not a liar.

I do not try to control giving my opinion. And usually regret telling people personal things. Never intending to. Gatekeper gone!

I have always been a great listener in the past,

a good friend, a person who can keep a

confidence, but now catch myself interupting

people, and talking to strangers about personal

things. I have even shared confidences...and

regretted it immediately.

This chat has given me something to work on!

I once read a book called "taming the tongue" when I was a teen. It stuck with me.

It is a Christian book that spoke about the tongue being something that can either bless or curse. I am now experiencing this first hand.

And it's better not to speak, if it cannot be positive or uplifting to those listening.

I use to be very aware of being positive...and somehow the lyme has robbed me of giving blessings to others with my speech. I'm going to blame the lyme now!!!!

I have become very negetive of others and finding fault, critical of most things. Especially my children, family and friends and those I love most.

And this has actually turned into a personal curse.

Very ironic...but I know I can work on this.

I know I prefer to be around people who are

smiling, up, happy, and joyful. I know how I

feel when I run into them. I notice it

immediately. They make my day!

I now wonder what (normal) people think of

me...when I leave them with a downer! Wow, never thought of this before.

Of course

they don't want to be with me...I need to get

out of myself...and work on diciplining by thoughts and speech...

Thanks to all for posts!
