I have steadily improved in the last year, however I cannot seem to shake this annoying constant right side headache and head pressure. Also, have fairly severe stiff neck.
I am on 500 zitro and 1000 Flagly. for the last 2 months.
I have my next LLMD appointment next week and not sure what is the next steps Completed Amoxy, Doxy, Flagly/Biaxin, Malarone/Zitro and Flagly prior to my current treatment
I continue to fail the visual contrast test. I am not sure if I am dealing with neuro toxins, Lyme and or co-infections. My babs testing came back twice as negative. I do not have the classic babs symptoms.
What do folks think? I did have a few days last week where the headaches were manageable. First time in 2 years. However, they came back this week
Doxy seems to work the best for me of all of the abx.
Thanks for any words of advice.

Hey tp...
Sorry you are having that headache!
I was reading a book- yes- it does happen once in a great while... but it was saying about how if you think you can, you can.
But I failed.
I tried to think the headache I was having didn't hurt.
It didn't work. Sooooooooo...
Wanna buy a book?
Thoughts to consider.
A chiropractor may be able to help with the neck- and in the process the headaches. Since it is mostly right sided it might make sense? Worth a try.
By being off antibiotics for a bit, your body may be able to clear some of the dead keets and toxins.
If not, perhaps Glutathione would do the trick. Works great for me and others. IV push can help immensely.. not the oral supplements or trying to get it from your diet... but the IV push.
And the Flagyl is known to cause headaches so maybe consider that? You didn't say when the headaches started, so I can't say for sure that would have caused it.

I had that symptom for 6 months, and have also been told I don't have Babesia. All the Lyme/Bart meds I've been on over the past 15 months have failed miserably, though...

My headache lasted about 2 years. I made slow progress on that front, along with all of my other symptoms. If you, like me, ONLY have Bb then you can probably look forward to steady, but slow improvement. I will tell you, from the research that I've done that getting good, deep rest at night is one thing that helps a lot with all symptoms.
Be well.
