Hi all,
I started back in May with headaches. By mid-June, I was having dizzy spells and moments of extreme lightheadedness. This included moments when it felt like my spinal cord was literally spasming in my neck.

Since, I treated with doxy alone, doxy and azithromycin, amoxicillin with azithromycin, doxy with biaxin, and doxy with tindamax.

Nothing seems to shake the tremulous feelings I get in my neck and head, mostly at night when asleep.

Can someone please recommend a treatment that has been effective for getting rid of these very annoying feelings? I am really getting discouraged after short periods when I seemed to get a little better, followed by periods where the tremoring comes right back again.

I will add that my Lyme test was positive, but my coinfection tests have been negative. I understand this doesn't mean much...surely I could have an odd strand of bartonella.

I really appreciate any suggestions and I'd like to hear what has worked for you.

Thank you!

Will

Have you been tested for coinfections through Fry Labs?

Or .. would your LLMD be willing to try a trial run of meds for each coinfection to see how you respond?

You could easily have bartonella or babesia.

My doctor would do that. What is the recommended treatment for bartonella?

I believe you had your coinfection tests done through Quest because of the high cost of Igenex testing.

Why not reconsider Igenex testing and find out all the diseases you have. I think it is money well spent if it could be the key to getting your health back.

I know it is a lot of money, but the Igenex tests are so much better than Quest--no comparison.

Quest? Useless, totally useless.
