OT - Microplasm herx and other symptoms

October 9, 2010

Hi All,

I see a lot about this and different types of herxing.. and WOW is all of this confusing!

We have both been diagnosed last January with Chronic intracellular Lyme disease and Babs.

WE see Dr. P in Iowa every month. We are up to three different abx's, Mepron, vit d3,

magnesium, iron. Im on cpap hubby is on bypap

I feel horrible for my hubby he is going through much of what I have been through

with one big difference..

He sleeps 22 plus hours a day.. he just cant stay awake. I had CFS but couldn’t sleep...

If he is up he has what we call the " Horrible Heebie Jeebies" where you cant really

tell if you feel hot or cold or both.. but you feel flushed and clammy you feel like your

skin is trying to crawl off of your body and sick to your stomach... Its just a horrible feeling

and we have had it long before we were diagnosed, so I don’t think its related to any of

our medications.. unless it would be fentanyl.. as that’s the only one we had in common

before lyme treatment.

Also Im wondering if high triglycerides is common with Lyme? Mine is down to 400 from

over 700 but Pat's are over 2000!! The doctor is sending him to a Cardiologist. We have both

been on 500mg of flush free Niacin 2 times a day for a long time and also prescription medication

for it.

I started on Black Cohosh because I wondered if the "heebie jeebies" was related to hormones

and I also began spending more time outside. I don’t know if it was either of these but mine

got about 50% better..

Any way like I said all this stuff is so confusing to me.. Im open to suggestions and ideas??

I would love to rife but as I have said before, with Pat and I both sick and unable to work

we can hardly afford what little we do have. So if there is any Central Iowa Lymies out there

that want to share fell free to email me privately if you wish.. mstammyt@...

Healing Hugs to you all!!

Tammy
