systemic fungal infection. gone with fluconazole, but after 8 weeks of sleeping like a baby with ALL lyme symptoms gone, it all came back. Fungal organisms found a way to hide, smart little farts! Now worse then ever! Health and Happiness, GT44

Mold gave me more lung pain & some new heart stuff, along with more symptoms & tremors. Not to mention the nose & throat burning, including the burning of the lungs.

I can tell you my story when I have time & you can see if/how it applies to you. I have some information that is very revealing if you pay close attention to it. In my case it speaks volumes to what has happened to me & how it transpired over a few years.
I plan on making a MOLD/FUNGI video, but who knows when I will get to it.

I have also had lung pain, burning, and heaviness. It is very hard to breathe lately. I thought it was Babesia. It still might be.
However, after a series of antibiotics for 2 different UTI's, I ended up getting a fungal infection. I confirmed this under the microscope. But I only looked at a sample from "down there". During my examination of this slide, I also saw what looked like worms, but put that on the back burner since 1.) I couldn't believe what I was seeing, and 2.) I had to get rid of the fungus.
It has crossed my mind that my lung problems might be fungal. So, I looked at a sample from some nasal mucus. There was no fungus, but the same type of worm from the sample "down there"!!!
After a lot of research, it looks like it's Cryptostrongylus pulmoni - aka Hidden Lungworm - aka Klapowi Lungworm. Google patent US5645819.
Something to consider! It has been found that almost 70% of people with CFS have this lungworm. I also have central sleep apnea.

This is very interesting! under dark field micro. all my red blood cells are deformed, not round. And inside them is this black fuzzy looking stuff. Always thought it might be fungus. When I was on fluconazole, Tons of stringy, hairy, fuzzy stools were eliminated. But I stayed on that med. to long. (Long story) I to was treated for Babesia, my heart pain improved, but came back later. I was improving greatly until I made my big mistake. After drinking bad water in Mexico, I went on a course of antibiotics and some of my lyme symptoms came back, so my doc put me on High amounts of 4 different anti-B's. This is when I got my systemic fungul infection. Pain that is unbearable and indescribable! I have been on pain meds. for 14 years now, just to be able to function at ALL ! Is there a test for these worms? I will do some research. Thanks for the Help! Health and Happiness, GT44

Btw - please break up your posts into 2-3 sentence paragraphs, as there are people on Lymenet who cannot read large blocks of text due to neurological problems from Lyme. Thanks.
