I'm curious as to how babesia is treated in people with G6PD deficiency. Isn't this enzyme supposed to make people immune to malaria, is babesia any different?
If anti-malarials cannot be used to this deficiency, then how can people improve??
What labs are most commonly used or are patients sent to the nearest research facility?

I don't know yet if I have it, I've just had blood drawn for the test. My dad has this, so I wonder because I also have a very hard time with sulfa. My LLMD said that enula, cryptolepsis are good places to start.

Soleil16 - thx for that information. I'll cross my fingers that you don't have it. Isn't it predominantly a male thing? Sorry bad wording, too foggy to think today. Good luck and do post when you find out!
