I know I've asked before but I need some more encouragement.
Can it take a long time for Bart symptoms to go away once treating? I'm really worrying myself that it will never go away...been treating about 5 weeks

My wife's Bart symptoms really never showed up until I treated it. Then they were horrible.
I used frequency treatments, and they did kill it but it would come back so fast I could not get ahead of it. I added Cumanda as a treatment to slow it down and continued the frequency treatments.
As far as I can tell, it is gone now. I still treat her for it on occasion just in case.
Yes, it's a tough one, but it can be eliminated given enough time. It took me a few months to knock it down to nothing. Likely because she had it for several years,and I didn't know it.
You will beat it. It just doesn't go easily. The one thing I noticed is the Lyme itself seems less of a problem once Bart is eliminated. It is like there is some kind of synergy between the two infections. Maybe eliminating Bart allows the immune system to work better defending against Lyme.
Good luck

Anyone else reading...I'm very confused about this process. Since starting to treat Bart last month, I have in fact noticed one of my Bart symptoms drastically improve. However, no improvement yet with other symptoms.
Is this normal for symptoms of Bart to improve on a different timeline? Some going earlier and others taking a lot longer?

Yes, it can take a long time, so don't get discouraged.
I've treated Bart as well, and it took several months of consistent treatment.
As you mentioned, some of my symptoms cleared up or improved much more quickly than others.
My LLMD advised that this is totally normal. (Of course, always ask your doc if you need to....
It can be a long treatment, so stick to it and try not to be discouraged (I know, easier said than done!).
You will get through this!
