AL-Complex and A-BAB

I am new to the Lyme scene and don't know what to expect. I started AL-Complex and A-BAB on 1/1/15 -starting with 1 drop and worked up to 20 drops. Prior to that I was and still am on many supplements. The last few days my anxiety has gone up to the point I think I'm going to go crazy. I think this is a herx reaction. Tonight I did not take the AL or A-BAB because I can't handle how I feel. My ILAD doc is not in tomorrow and I don't know what to do. Can anyone give me some suggestions?

Hi Walking,

Byron White Formulas are very powerful! I've had some very strong reactions, especially at the beginning.

Can you take a couple of days off and do some extra detoxing?

I started A-BAB last month and was herxing every single day for a couple weeks. My LLMD suggested taking half a drop once a day until I can handle more. Take a glass of water, around shot glass size, add one drop, and take half the glass one day and the other half the next day.

I hope you feel better soon! Keep posting, okay? We are here for you.

Yes, defintely a herx! The Byron White formulas are very strong. Deceptively strong. And 20 drops is a lot! Take a few days off until you recover, and build up again slowly. Maybe do less than 20.

Last night and today I have not taken the AL and A-BAB and probably won't again until I get some direction from my doc.Last night and today I have not taken the AL and A-BAB and probably won't again until I get some direction from my doc.I worked up 1 drop at a time 2x a day with these meds since the first of January. I started journaling then also. I went back and looked and about a 3 days ago I started writing down anxiety. I just never saw this coming because I have struggled with anxiety before. I also started back on my lauricidin 3 days ago. I'm on one week and off the next. And 2 days ago I started on the artemisinin for Babesia. Probably a system overload.

Besides pain which is a companion to this old body, I'm also really cold and have been twitching when I try to sleep. Some nausa but I think that's because of all the pills. Lack of drive and mental energy is frustrating too.

I will try a detox bath a little later. Right now I'm trying to snuggle in bed to get warmed up. Has anyone tried Alka-Seltzer Gold?

I remembered something this morning that is easy to fall into...if I tell myself I can't...I can't. I can, I just have to move by His grace.

Update on the AL & A-BAB....My doc replied to my email, isn't that great! Mondays the office is closed so I am very grateful to hear from him. Besides detoxing and other suggestions he wants me to drop to 3 or less drops. I'd say I must have been a little too aggressive with gradually increasing the amount I took!

Spent the day in bed and took a day off of meds. Still feel yucky. Hoping tomorrow looks different.

Thanks for letting me vent.
