I was treated for and LYME BABS for almost 2 years, I never had any sweats with either of them however had virtually all of the other symptoms that one could have. For the past 2 1/2 months after beginning treatment for bartonella with minocycline and rifampin added to the mix I get sweats day and night. In the beginnign in September the sweats came virtually every 15 mins. now they are about
once an hour or 2 day and night. LYME IGNORANT GYN says they could be menopause flashes though I went thru menapause 3 years without any flashes. It is odd they are here now. My LLMD Dr.H is not concerned, but it is sure uncomfortable. As far as my Many other horrible symptoms -they are getting better. But on a scale of 0 to 60 with 60 feeling the worst I could go from 0 to 60 in a matter of less than a minute when the discomfort of symptoms occurs. One minute I could be in a comfortable position and say to my self I actually feel OK right now. The next thing I know it I am crashing and extremely uncomfortable with pain. When I have the flashes--the heat begins in my head goes down from there to my feet which could be freezing at the time ( I live in the north east). Even with all of that I know I am getting better but only as long as I am on the antibiotics---As soon as I have stopped them in the past the symptoms come raging back. Any comments? Blessings
