I have lyme and babesia and I noticed when I started taking Artemisin and malarone my urine turned golden - usually it's totally clear. My LLMD said this is the babs dying off.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks!

Never heard of that. Massman claims red speckles in urine is Babs die-off from Inno-Vita Micro-Site supplement. Who knows.
