My regular doctor just put me on antibiotics for a sinus infection and month long cough. Do I keep doing my Buhner's herbs? I just started them not that many weeks ago (4-5?) and have been going super slow because of the herxing. I don't want to stop them and undo what little progress I've made with building them up, but also don't want to have the antibiotic and the herbs completely make me miserable.

I'm no expert (fairly new at this) but I would think it's okay to continue the herbs you've already started...
It's probably not the best time to increase or add other herbs but I would think maintaining is a reasonable option.

I'd hate to be told to stop/start over. I'm taking it slow, too.

Looking forward to hearing the opinions of the experts... ;)

Yes, Slag - you can continue to take your Buhner herbs.

The antibiotics could make you herx, though...just be aware of that.
Make sure you detox!

Thanks Kathie and Girlie! I'll just maintain until I'm done the antibiotics. Hoping they don't cause too awful a herx. :/

Just wanted to offer support and hoping you are doing okay still!!

Thanks, Traveler! Let's just say the antibiotics are definitely causing a major herx. I feel like I've been run over by a truck. I wish I could lay in bed all day, but I have to teach a class this afternoon. I just keep focusing on the bath I'm going to take after when I get home. :)
