Some of you mentioned this to me in one of my posts about neuro symptoms getting worse about 1-2 hrs after I eat. I feel anxiety, chills, headache, irritability...etc.
For those who mentioned this related more to Bart, can you tell me more about that?

A girl I met on Lymenet told me that after she ate, no matter what she ate, she would get stomach symptoms and then pressure in the head and a rage of neuro lyme symptoms. She said food became like poison to her, because this happened every single time she ate. So she had stopped eating. Lost 10 pounds in one week due to this.
Here is what she listed as her neuro lyme symptoms that came every time she ate anything:
"Vision-eye floaters-flashing lights Ears-ringing in the ears Tremors-all over body now Nerve pain-electric shock and tingling and numbness Crawling feeling on my scalp that makes everything worst. All of my bones keep cracking- no pain associated with it. Numbing of hands and legs-this symptoms has gotten so worst this week. It awakes me when i am about to go to sleep. Wierd throbbing and vibrating sensations."
She went to my now famous lyme doctor who told her that she had the major symptoms of bartonella and that bartonella was the cause of all of her problems after eating.
Since he is such a knowledgeable lyme doc, I take his statement very seriously.
There was no mention of reactive hypoglycemia.

They can be one and the same.
Bart can be causing hypoglycemia which causes the above symptoms.
I agree with TF though... treat Lyme and Co and these symptoms will subside. (assuming you didn't have a lot of that pre-Lyme)
