I have been on Welchol for two weeks to treat mold. The last three or four days I seem to be having flu like symptoms that come and go for hours at a time. Malaise, weak, fatigue, lightheaded. Is this the Herx reaction or am I just feeling like crap?

It sounds like a herx to me. What the welchol is doing is removing biotoxins.

Make sure you are detoxing!!!

Also make sure your bowels are moving daily.

Hope this helps and you feel better.

I'm really curious about this. My doc has made me do some research about mold toxicity, but I haven't had much luck. Is this something that you test for, or do you just try to treat and see the reaction?

Are you treating the mold and Lyme at the same time? Thanks so much!

Today I skipped Welchol and didn't have that flu symptom, fatigue lightheaded feeling. My doc said to skip it for two days and to start it back up with a lower dosage. I think I'm super sensitive to all drugs and supplements at this point.

And yes, you need to take several blood marker tests and have mult-system symptoms going on too. It's not something you can self diagnose, and it's called CIRS if you want to look it up. Dr Ritchie Shoemaker is the leading pioneer behind its treatment protocol. Lots of info and podcasts to check out.
