Hi Kitkate, It's been over a year since you posted so I hope you're doing better now. I do get the tightness as you say in those areas. I am being treated for Lyme and Babesia and I feel as though Bart may be a part of it. My llmd did not test me for this. Sometimes the tightness goes to arms also. It feels like everything gets locked up and painful. I wish I had advice to give as I am looking for answers also. My worst symptom is intense anxiety, the kind that makes me feel crazy with tremors.
I have a load of old mercury fillings and root canals too. I saw a site where some lady had Bell's palsy, her whole face was crooked. One year after her fillings were removed and she completed detox, she looked like a totally different person. I do know lyme loves heavy metals, so it is worth a try to have the fillings removed if you can afford to. What you are referring to is the MTHFR gene, and if you have this gene, your body has a hard time detoxing. There are ND's who are trained to work on clearing the lymphatic pathways to help detox. Hope this helps!
