Since starting treatment my anxiety goes off the scale at times, I never had this before treating Lyme and co-infections.

We should not be embarassed talking about it as even though many dont mention it THEY SHOULD as its very common when you start treatment and during treatment.

My LLMD tells me its a combination of Bugs, drugs and toxins....... So by killing the bugs and getting rid of the toxins it will all go eventually. Just keep in mind it is part of the process and we have to go through it to get through it.

For me it is the toughest part of this illness and treatment.

I'd never had anxiety before I became ill with TBIs. Then---- full blown anxiety that slowly disappeared after starting abx.

No anxiety now.

I tried all sorts of herbs first (Chinese and others) but the only thing that helped was abx.

We're all different.

Im still in the early stages of treatment with High dose AB's and am just assuming for me its part of herxing etc.as it never started until treatment started - I am continually told it can be one of the last thing to go - God I hope so as its very tough at times.......

It took a while on abx before anxiety disappeared. I can't remember how long exactly---- this was quite a while ago. But it started gradually, not overnight.

I was unable to even watch TV, read an 'exciting' novel. Black Beauty was 'exciting' because horses were being hurt

----- every thing caused me anxiety--- a telephone call in the evening.

The biggest advance, though, was after I was treated for Bart. It hadn't been discovered as a TBI until about 5 years after I took sick so tx was very delayed.

My opinion: Bart = neurocrap

So no more anxiety AT ALL.

You are so reassuring and that is exactly what my LLMD says that Bart is culprit to anxiety.

I am in the throws of treating Lyme and Babs right now but bart is next on his list.

Again thank you for posting as this will help so many
