If so, what are your symptoms and what treatment(s) are you using?

Hi,
I live in MI but not sure where I got bit. I am from the Chicago area and have lived in Fl. when I was younger.
I know I have babesia as far as other coinfections I am not sure. I am treating babs right now with malarone (4 per day), but having

a hard time. The past few weeks my symptoms have gotten worse, not sure what is going on. My symptoms are head pressure, anxiety, burning, fast heart beats, nasuea, ear pressure, and fatigue. Those are main symptoms there are more.
If you have any questions of doctors/ treatment feel free to pm me.
Marcie

Marcie, I'm not sure I have Babesia, but I have nearly every symptom you mentioned. [Frown]

I get severe chills and sweats too. So depressing to hear nothing ever helps people beat this.

Lyme and coinfections are everywhere. Treatment for them works! It just takes awhile.
