Update on Bartonella treatment

1/13/2013

5 Comments

 
This is a bit out of order but I wanted to do an updated post on how I am doing post Bartonella treatment. I did 2 rounds of the Bartonella Series & it's still up in the air if we will go back later to address a third round. 
Anyways, before my Bartonella treatment I got horrible rashes all over my body from heat. Then I got really sick afterwards. This would come from the sun, the shower & even my heating pad (imagine that). This is what my wonderful rash looked like:

It's not cute, but I said I wouldn't hide anything on here so there it is. It was tough day in & day out. I can now say that the last 3 months I have been BART RASH FREE! It's truly a visual testament to me that I know it's gone. I don't think I would have believed it otherwise. Symptom wise it's a tough call. I jumped right into Lyme treatment so currently this is making me pretty sick. It's hard to separate symptom from herx. They are all jumbled together.
One thing I can say however is that I feel improved from August (when I began Bartonella treatment). I can't put my finger on how specifically, but just an aura of feeling better. I truly feel like that burden has been mostly lifted. If things come back though we will certainly add in a 3rd round down the road.

So I hope this update was informative & helpful to someone. There is so much negativity with my posts now from Lyme treatment that I wanted to post SOMETHING happy for a change. :)

Xoxo,
Christina

Ho Lady of Lyme! I'm diagnosed with Lyme and my ID doc seems to be completely perplexed as to why in chronically rashing!! My rashes look JUST like yours! Can you please tell me what your bart treatment was exactly? It's like I always say, I can handle the pain, headaches and all the other symptoms that come along with lyme but i'd give ANYthing to not have to experience these rashes anymore! Any help would be MUCH appreciated as I'll take it to my dr,

Hey there! Yes the Bart rashes are a huge troublesome symptom I can completely relate! For treatment I used the DesBio Bartonella Series therapy. It was a complete miracle worker for me, I can't possibly recommend it enough! Here is the link to a post where I talked about my treatment & In my treatment blog I talk in depth about each dose & how it went. I hope it can be of some help!
