Guest guest Posted May 29, 2001 Report Share Posted May 29, 2001 Has anyone had heart block? I did. I took anti-biotics for 6 months and am about to come off of them for one month to see how I do. I am very scared that the heart block could return, although my LLMD says its unlikely. Can anyone tell me what their experience has been with heart block and being off anti-biotics?

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2001 Report Share Posted May 29, 2001 Could you please tell me what the symptoms of heart block are? I'm going to see a Cardiologist tomarrow because I have been having chest pain & shortness of breath. I allready have arthritis & neurological problems from lyme, and I would hate to think that I'm having heart problems also. Thank you, Kim S. --- darylethan@... wrote: > Has anyone had heart block?

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2001 Report Share Posted May 29, 2001 Heart Block is where the signal for the chambers to beat in sequence is 'blocked' Since Spirochetes love nerves, they can damage them. IN a worst case scenario a person will need a pacemaker to keep a regular heartbeat going. For me, heartblock made me passout even while sitting, extreme fatigue, and arrythmias. After being on Zith-Ceftin, I have no more bad beats. My Heartblock cleared on its own, however, before I ever got abx. Pepi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
