Alright folks does this sound like lyme or bart or even babs acting up?
Severe shooting joint pain on both sides of my body (mostly going from my elbows to my wrists),knee pain as well, my stomach feels a little like indigestion happening in it.
Im so tired but i cant fall asleep for the life of me,really restless legs while lying in bed.
I had been off all meds for almost 2 weeks when the shooting pains started to happen.
Is there a "rule" regarding joint pains and if its on both sides that it may be a co-infection rather than lyme? helppp

Jackie-I know we are all different, but for me, these symptoms are bart. The shooting pain I get from elbows to fingertips. And my llmd has told me that my gut issues are due to bart. And feeling completely exhausted but no sleep-that is lyme/bart for me. During babesia treament was the only time I could sit down anywhere and sleep. Hope this helps and I am sorry this is happening.

Sounded like Bart to me when I read it. Plus you have been off of meds two weeks when the pain started. Typically it is thought that if symptoms return quickly then it is a co-infection, a month when the symptoms return is considered more Lyme because of the growth pattern.
Still seeing a lyme doc?
