I feel as though I have a good handle on babs.I feel SO much better! I have been treating for 5-6 months Alinia and A-bab,that was rough.

My symptom list is way smaller

I still have lyme and suspected bart. What I would like to know from those that have done all the bugs in, should I expect the rest of this journey to be that bad?

With the caveat that everyone is different, I will say that Babs was, by far, the worst for me.

Herxing for Bart and Lyme was much easier. I had less fatigue and brain fog. I could tolerate more foods. Life was better all around.

Keep your eyes peeled for a Babs relapse. I did a full year of Babs treatment, then 18 months of Lyme/Bart. I thought I was closing in on remission, then WHAM! Babs relapse.

If you get ANY Babesia symptoms, resume treatment. At least with herbs.

Good luck! I'm glad you are making progress.

Yes I agree if what I have are Babs herxes, they're pretty bad. [Frown]

Can someone describe what a Babs herx is like and how it differs from a Lyme or Bart herx?

Thanks
