I have been treating lyme since 5/11 with Doxy, Zithromax, Artemesia and some Flagyl.
I now have foot and leg numbness and tingling. Can anyone give me some insight into what is causing it and what medication will take it away?
For many years, whenever I would have a sinus, chest or any other infection, I would get this same numbness and tingling in the feet and legs. It always went away with treating the infection.
Now, I have had it for four months and it is not going away.
I would appreciate any insights you can share.
Thank you.

I relapsed from the car accident and stopped all antibiotics for 5 months ( big mistake ) quit fighting since I got out of the hospital when I took Iv. I treated bart before for 9 months with Mino Rifampin and azithro and than followed by highest dosages of HH and knotweed , banderol and tried A bart but did not feel much.Babesia exsploded as well while my LLMD though I have no babs but seemed I have since in hospital I have had all the symtoms of babs even dark urine , short of breath sweats etc. My eusinophils were high but never tested for babs.I reacted highly in artemisin and saw improvement from artemisin until it stoped working and now I am in Biaxin , Plaquinil and Mepron.I am better but still do not have a clear head . When I treated babs with high dosages of artemisin the twitching was from head to toe and when I treated bart babs came out.SO in hospital BABS raised its ugly head as nothing from the antibiotics they gave me covered BABS. Now that I am treating babs -bartonella seems to come up not highly as before but still in the skin and some numbness in face , hands and some twithcing here and there.I can not leave the babs treatment but added this time KNotweed to keep bart in check.Maybe is time for some HH it has been over 2 years that I stoped them . It seems a non end war.But never like I was before the treatment and better than when I came out of the hospital.I walked in hospital and came out in wheelchair and did blood transfusion .They were not help at all.
