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 am treating for babs and my LLMD has me supplementing magnesium.

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,

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...
