Guest guest Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Hi guys, these are just my own memories/ understanding of babesiosis, nothing medical. IT'S MY OWN OPINION, SIMPLY. 1- many babs symptoms overlap lyme symptoms; 2- negative babs may mean nothing, babs is defined by clinical diagnosis mostly; 3- night sweats are not only babs symptom. It could be toxins going out, it could be lyme, it could be menopause or hormone imbalance, thyroid problems. I had loads of night sweats after metal detox. Once I stopped metal detox, night sweats disappeared. I feel that only when symptoms are seen together and the way we react to anti-malarials may tell if we have babs (only personal experience!!). 4- I knew I had babs only AFTER having taken Riamet. 4 months of night sweats were down the drain, I suddenly had no more night sweats after these 3 day course of Riamet. Some people report severe headaches with Riamet, that's also sign of killing babs. I had only mild imbalance with it, which I also believe were signs of killing. I also had the most profuse sweat of my life the first day I took Riamet. 5- hot flushes look very much babs and not lyme in my opinion. Hot flushes followed by extreme fatigue for me can be only babs, it looks like you almost faint and get the heat coming up your face. 6- if you take any anti-malarial and have the malaria/ babesiosis symptoms WHILE/AFTER you take it, it means YOU DO HAVE babesiosis (my own opinion and experience of months of reading the forums). 7- if everytime you take an antimalarial, you get changes of your babesiosis symptoms (from night sweats to day hot flushes, from no air hunger to air hunger, etc), you have the disease. 8- mood swings for me are very much babesiosis, you cry easily for no reason, for example. Hey guys, again, this is just MY OWN VIEW of the disease. Dont' take it as medical at all. It's just based on what I've been experiencing and reading in the forums since September last year. My brain works well now, but remember that most of this info was 'stocked' in my brain while I had brain fog like most of you. My best advice is to do an energy test, like ART. Or the pendulum. Then try some of these antimalarials to check how you react. The danger in treating babesiosis 'light' and then stopping treatment is to get a resistant forms of the parasite. Mepron etc, seems to kill the living forms, but not the dormant forms. Same for artemisinin. I HEARD PC-Noni deals with cystic forms, but that's what I was told, I don't remember reading about that. I reacted very strongly to few drops of it after having tried artemisinin in all forms and protocols. TODAY I'm symptom free of EVERYTHING. KNOCK ON WOOD. I'm still on low dose Buhner's protocol, still on low dose artemisia annua, still on metal detox, but ZERO SYMPTOMS!!!! No fatigue, no chill. I could never reach a month symptom free even with the herbs, so I'm just knocking on wood all around. Selma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
