Hi, I've been under treatment with an llmd since August 2008 when i got diagnosed. Ive been doing loads of antibiotics through the course. I actually got better for a few months last year..didnt even have a sick day for several months.
But now over the last three months I've been sick all the time and my symptoms are getting worse even though I've been sticking to my doctors plan. And I'm developing new symptoms like really bad joint pain through out my whole body where before i even started all this I only had joint pain in my right hand.
over the last month I've been having trouble walking and it seems to be getting harder. I basically hobble around. I've been on Bicillin for almost a year three times a week. I'm also on Levaquin, flagyl, and LDN.
I guess I'm just really concerned because all my symptoms are back plus some. Any advice??

Have you treated for babesia with Mepron/zithromax/atremesia?

Yes I was on Mepron for about six months in the beginning and then my doctor ran a co-infection test and she said I didnt have it anymore. Do you think this is babs?

Please check into the co-infection of parasites and worms.
Everything pictured in the photos is what came pouring out of me after I started treating with antiparasitic herbs and salt/c. Please don't ignore this. Some LLMDs are not aware of this co-infection.

It's hard to say.
Dr B says that a person with lyme who is not getting better probably has an untreated coinfection.
What dose of mepron did you take?
Babesia is hard to treat and sometimes reoccurs and requires a long course of treatment.
