This symptom comes and goes, but I been feeling pretty strong lately.. I'm not 100 percent but better than last week.. I only been on treatment twice..
First the the 200 mg of doxy for 20 days 1 time a day. and then couple of months later. The 14 days of iv rocephin.. Was herxing for awhile, but I been of those treatments
for 3 weeks now... My problem is vertigo I guess, when I stress my vertigo kicks in.. I kind of hate that, not to mention sometimes my shins
tingle. Those are my only symptoms I have had for a few days now and that's it. I know I'm not cure, but I fill fine. When I'm outside, I do not feel it..
I feel it more when I'm in a small office with people, weird, not sure if its stress,,,Possible co-infections..When I'm off work I just feel so tired, like right now..
I sleep like a baby at night... no insomnia what so ever.
PLease advise...
Thanks group

I am not sure about what co-infection causes vertigo but someone else here might know. I have vertigo too and it seems to be worse for me when I first wake up in the morning.
When I get the tingling feeling in my case I think it might be Bartonella and I usually get it when I am having anxiety.

Yes vertigo... I think it is vertigo....Mainly when I stress and have some anxiety...Can it be co-infection or just lyme?

Tony,
Did you ever find a doctor? Were you able to look over some of the Bionic 880 treatment information with the doctor in Pforzheim, Germany ?
Vertigo is certainly a classic symptom of lyme and other tick-borne disease (TBD).
It can also be from many other things.
Ginger Tea - or ginger capsules - or ginger root in your food - might help.

Here is a symptom list - I am sure there is a newer one floating around. This is from 2002 but according to this list vertigo is a Lyme disease symptom.
Short Symptom List: Lyme Disease & Common Co-Infections
Borrelia, Babesia, Bartonella, and Ehrlichia The following symptoms were excerpted from Diagnostic Hints And Treatment Guidelines For Lyme And Other Tick Borne Illnesses, by Joseph J. Burrascano Jr., M.D. (Fourteenth Edition, November, 2002).
Borrelia
(Borreliosis, neuroborreliosis; also known as Lyme Disease)
Spread primarily though the bite of infected ticks that live on a wide range of mammalian species; secondary human-to-human transmission through semen, breast milk, and possibly in utero
