Hello all. I have been having bi weekly bouts of dizziness/ lightheadedness accompanied by fatigue and/or flu like symptoms. The bi weekly thing has got me leaning toward Babs. This is the one symptom (dizziness)that has not gone away since treatment. I have not been treating aggressivively for a year yet, so I know that Lyme is still an issue. I am currently treating for Bart, and these 2 week cycles have become a bit more prominent since the Bart started clearing. Since I know without a lab diagnosis, there is no way to know for sure, but I am wondering, is there a specific type of dizziness that comes w/ BAbs, as opposed to Lyme? Flu like symptoms? Is there anything that would be a bigger clue towards Babs than just a dizzy head and flu symptoms?
I see LLMD in 2 weeks, would like to be able to get him to treat BABs. I think it is time. Any advice?

The dizziness from babs is like being on a boat... a lifting and up and down feeling .. and/or interference with balance.
Does that help?

the rocking boat, not so much, but yes, interference with balance, kind of like my head is on a boat, but not the rest of me. Also lightheadedness.

So poor balance is Babs?
My LLMD used to have me put my feet together and close my eyes.
