Shivering Symptoms
Yesterday I was at an outdoor concert and it was so hot I kept praying for rain. I guess I'm pretty powerful because a major storm blew in, lol! It poured and hailed and lightning, major wind that was ripping tents up and blowing them around. After that I was soaked to the skin and freezing. I was shivering and as soon as that started, my heart symptoms started. I'm sort of glad because I have this expensive 30 day monitor on and finally I was able to record some of what my heart does. I really thing the shivers had something to do with it. Has anyone ever noticed anything like that?
The same thing used to happen to me, and was CLEARLY CAUSED BY BABESIA. I have had a number of situations exactly like yours. And treating the babesia generated chills you wouldn't have believed! No number of blankets would resolve it.
Also, recall, babesiosis is a red blood cell disease, and whacks out your serum iron levels as a result.
I've talked to you about this before. My major decline was in early 1999, and included two trips to the ER for heart problems. It took 5 years from that point to get the babesia dx'd, and I'm trying to save you from the same situation. I hate to be the barer of bad news, but your situation sounds almost identical to mine, and babesia can become EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, so if I were you I'd look into it sooner rather than later.Note also that lyme-web space IS FULL OF ENTIRE FAMILIES WITH LYME. I'm now seeing multiple family members with babesia as well, some of whom believe they caught the babesia from a family member. You've claimed recently that your hubby has recently had a bullseye. Note that if he has borrelia, the spirochete bacteria responsible for the bullseye, he could be asymptomatic for a long time but continuously passing the bacteria to you and other family members. It's a horrible situation this ridiculous disease is putting family members in, I realize, but it's reality and won't go away if you don't do something about it.
I feel that this is a you don't want to hear, and I don't blame you. I can't ignore, however, how amazingly similar your current story is to mine in 1999, and I'd feel bad if I didn't try HARD to save you and your family from a severe crisis.
I'd be willing to bet you $100 you have babesia!!!
Note that the current doctors you are seeing have less than a 1% chance of dx'ing it. You need to go to one of a very few llmds in the country capable of dxing babesia!!
However, treating the babs with artemisinin, garlic capsules, salt and vitamin C might bring on the symptoms consistent with babs dieoff and give you a reasonable indication, and not cost much money in the process.
I believe its possible that I could have that. This shivering was because I was in a hail storm and soaked. We were all shivering. 9,000 of us, lol. My husband had a small red spot where I dug the tick out,no bulls eye.
