I know this answer is a bit long-winded. This question keeps coming up over and over again. I do not know where this myth came from. But is absolutely false. I fear it may be keeping a lot of patients away from a treatment which might be very helpful.
If this were true nobody would get better since virtually every Lyme patient has co-infections. People do Herx with HBOT so getting worse for a while is part of the process. Oxygen does not act like a fertilizer to promote the growth of various aerobic pathogens/parasites. What is important to hear is that HBOT creates a milieu of: a natural antibiotic, decreased swelling, improved immune function overall, healing of diseased tissues, increased glutathione and improved mitochondrial function. HBOT is used to heal severe non-healing wounds in diabetics, patients with gangrene and other non-healing surgical wounds. All of these infections have a combination of anerobic and aerobic bacteria. The treatment kills both. And very importantly, HBOT helps break down biofilms.

Now, thats what I call real doctor's answer.
I Hope people now realise it more that Hbot is indeed helpfull in fighting this lyme complex. But consistent long term use only can help. Not the few sessons.
Thanks for the answer doctor.

I just want to thank you for dispelling the "babesia loves oxygen" myth. I have been arguing this point with LLMD's and patients for a long time now.
Nobody to date has been able to show me any research that supports this argument, and, unfortunately, I talk to many people with babesia who are being dissuaded from pursuing hyperbaric by their LLMD's.
As we have discussed, I had full blown babesia and bartonella, along with severe neuro-lyme for 8+ years (5 years completely housebound), and am now well thanks to mHBOT...I have my life back completely...very active, no restrictions, drug free...
