So frustrated!

My neck is tight but the worst symptom of all is this head pressure in the lower back of my head.. what frustrates me is that from what i've read online , it is a symptom of Babesia--yet my Dr. won't treat me for babesia yet..She said at my next appt in a month, we'll start that..  I just don't understand why.. She says my 400 mg of doxy for lyme will help the babesia for now.. (maybe she doesn't want to treat everything at once).. I also read that co-infections should be treated before lyme... This is a reputable lyme Dr in New Jersey--I don't think its right to be taking this much advil..esp for my stomach

I've been into this odyssy for 8+ years. I'm in the middle of my 3rd round of IV Rocephine. This time I will be receiving tx for 10 weeks straight (2x a day 4x a week).

I have had neck and head pain for 1 year straight now - every day, every minute of every day, for over a year. And the jerking is so severe I fell out of bed last week. I am bruised from my right shoulder down to my right hip and ankle. I also look like a heroin addict with all the pin holes, missed veins etc.

I wish I could be more up beat, but I can't stop crying today. Just know, you're not alone.

Hi: When there is so much going on with Lyme, how can you tell exactly what is causing the neck/head pain? I have read that just Lyme without co-infections will cause the neck/head pain. Are there different meds for all of the co-infections? This is all SO confuisng to me.  D
