Does anyone have intense nausea as part of the symptomps of lyme? mine is not related to abx, as it is present regardless of the time of the day, abx/or not.
Does anything help? Thank you!!

Yes I have very intense nausea, it makes me feel extremely ill and it can happen any time, whether I'm on antibiotics or not.
A few months ago it got so bad I couldn't eat, or even get out of bed, for days and the doctor gave me some metoclopramide tablets but the side effects looked so awful I didn't dare take them!
The only thing that helps me is hot green tea, or grated fresh ginger soaked in boiling water, let it cool a bit and drink it as hot as possible. These things help while I'm drinking but the nausea comes back when I stop!! At least it means I drink plenty so it helps get rid of the toxins which is probably what causes the nausea in the first place!
Hope you find some relief soon, it's the most horrible feeling.

My daughter has had this on and off. I do think some of it is the ABX but she had problems before her Lyme diagnosis. I know it is has been the Lyme in the past.
She takes digestive enzymes twice a day before breakfast and dinner. She takes a ginger capsule in the middle of her meal. She also takes Nelson's homeopathic arsen alb for upset stomach and and nux vom for indigestion as needed. Her nausea is much worse if she eats sugar.
Hope this helps.
