I have many nodules or cyst like forms under my skin on my legs, arms, abdomen and think I might have found one in breast. I read somewhere that these are thought to be possible colonies of bacteria most seen with babesia. I don't know of any coinfections I might have other than main being Borrelias.

Today I gave myself a B12 injection in my quad where I mostly do and think I might have hit one of these nodules, it bleed dark blood and shot out pretty fast, with pressure it stopped. Usually there isn't hardly any blood. I fear that I might of hit a colony or nodule with this injection. Weird thought that I could have gave those monsters more energy instead of myself. Any thoughts on this, any of it?

Also... can you imagine what it would look like if I got an MRI or Xray of the whole body with all these nodules and lesions in brain showing up? would your average Dr. think you have cancer throughout your body? It's as bad as a cancer in the way that those monsters are destroying every organ in my body slowly but surely, except chemotherapy or radiation can not help me or you. ???

If blood shot out fast, sounds like you hit an artery. I've had that happen with B-12 & magnesium shots in my thighs.

Did you pull back the needle right after insertion to be sure you did not hit a blood vessel?

The nodules you describe are somewhat common with lyme. They usually diminish and disappear with proper treatment and efforts to improve circulation.
