4 and 1/2 months on antibiotics/ started hyperbaric

Hello, im concerned cause i have worsen on antibiotics and started hyperbaric 1 week ago and i have more pain and symptoms than when i started back in november my treatment. Anyone has any suggestions as to why i feel so bad and have not improved at all.

Roxy - it could be a herx or it could be that your body is crashing from four months of antibiotic usage. Be aware of the adverse drug reactions that your antibiotics can create and pay attention to your body - you should not "herx" for weeks or months. If what is going on is truly that you are feeling crummy because you are not detoxing fast enough, then maybe it is time to turn detoxing up a notch and turn antibiotics down a notch.

Roxy,

The stuff you're taking is helpful for detoxing but, you really need to be doing many more things on a daily basis.

Here's a link to my fav site for detoxing ideas:

And here's a link to a recent thread wherein members shared what they are doing for detoxing:

It took me quite some time to build my detoxing protocol and get ahead of the dead bug parts. It's only within the last few months (over one year into treatment) that I've been able to reduce the number of things I do each day for detoxing because I'm no longer herxing.

I detoxed before I got Lyme and will continue to do so afterwards. We live in a toxic environment - the average American is exposed to over 300 chemicals per day (think pesticides, plastics, vinyl, personal care products, cleaning products, artificial ingredients, car exhaust, industrial pollution, etc., etc., etc.)
