LOW BODY TEMPERATURE AND FEVERS IN LYME AND CO post

"People with Babesia are often quite chilled and can’t get warm and will have to take a hot shower or jump in a bathtub to warm up. The temperature de-regulation is again related to a dysfunctional autonomic nervous system. So, people either can’t get warm, or they get too hot."


"However, sometimes a low core body temperature is due to the build up of toxins in the blood that causes the blood to become thick and viscous and unable to flow through arterial vessels and capillary beds. The lack of proper blood flow results in lowered oxygen concentrations to tissues, and therefore the body begins to become “cold”


"For many Lyme disease sufferers, extreme heat and cold appear to cause adverse effects. I LOVE summer and mood-wise I am far happier in the heat and the sunlight. However, at the years roll on, I am only able to tolerate a small ‘dose’ of sun and extreme heat. It’s the same on the opposite end of the scale. Freezing cold temperatures and gusts of wind can cause major problems as I become unable to control my body temperature and it takes me far longer than normal to warm up. "
