Hi everyone,
I had undiagnosed Lyme/Babesia for about 15 years, started to treat Lyme, got somewhat better, did several months of Babesia treatment,
still doing Babesia treatment,
HOWEVER while treating lyme and babesia, my FEET started to get sore when I walked, such as now too, RAW feeling under my feet, heel and soles,
I also have sensitive skin, when I wash my clothes by hand my arms and hands sting from the Laundry soap.
I am NOT LOOKING to manage this skin sensitivity, I am looking to cure it because I should not be getting worse, and I have done yeast treatment with Nystatin and Diflucan. Could this sensitivity be Bartonella? Why would I get this while IN lyme treatment and Babesia treatment?
I am having such a difficult time getting well, it is such a nightmare.
I never had skin sensitivity all my life with untreated lyme,
I have done Rifampin, but NOT Levaquin,
I have done Cipro years ago, for 6 weeks, had NO response, would this mean that if I had NO response to Cipro, Levaquin would do nothing for me either?
thanks,
Bummed out.
Trish

Trish, myh LLMD says that when knocking down one co-infection, another will likely rear its head. So that could be happening for you...you're knocking down babesia and bartonella is coming up.
The sore feet are a hallmark of bartonella.
