My upper back is hurting me. Extreme pain when I

stand for a long time. Doc (not LLMD) says

scapula bursitis.

Could this be LD related?

Yes, I think so, LD or Babesia. I had that for a long time also. Oral/IM antibiotics didn't seem to do much for it. It only started to get better once I started treating it topically, first w/an infra-red light photon machine (I used the DPL light therapy machine), then later w/topicals such as bee venom ointment, ozonated olive oil, etc. If you have access to an infrared light device, I would try treating the area with that and see what happens. Or try one of the topical ointments, maybe even coconut oil.

I would get some magnesium oil and try spraying it on the spots that hurts

Dilute the oil with 50% pure water so it doesnt burn
