Does this happen to anyone else? I seem to have that jaw/ear/neck pain the same time every day. I'm assuming it's a reaction to the Houttuynia, but I don't take that the same time every day; it's roughly around the same time, give or take an hour sometimes two.

It's just weird how I can be okay one minute and then mid afternoon comes and I can barely talk because of the pain.

Could be that your symptoms get worse at that time. Usually, I feel the most sensitive when I wake up and then in the evening. Then it keeps changing. Not necessarily a herx, but could be.

Also, your cortisol levels may be out of whack. hormonerestoration.com/Cortisol.html

A 4 pt. cortisol saliva test can give you an idea if you're levels are low in the afternoon.

oh yes this happens to quite a few people i know including my wife. its like clockwork. it has nothing to do with what she's taking and everything to do with the lifecycle of the bugs if you ask me. i don't know what they're doing during this 'spike up' but they are the direct cause of it.

It's like having only one piece of 3000 piece puzzle lol The side of my face feels like I got hit with a bat. Same bat time, same bat channel. Lol!

My symptoms used to flare every day - late afternoon to early evening like clockwork. This is when I would get the internal vibrations...and then nerve pain.

Usually lasted about 4 hours.

Now, since treatment, I don't often have the flare so much, but I generally feel worse all day/evening now, just without that spike in the late afternoon...
Not sure if it's better... or worse...

ugh. So sorry, girlie. Neither scenario sounds great. I was so happy my head pressure was getting better and now this pain. I really hope this doesn't last as long...my head pain/pressure was severe for over a month. A month of this pain will make me insane. I have more detoxing stuff coming tomorrow so hopefully that will help.

I used to flare every evening time feeling like I'm coming down with something or flu-like feelings but now it's only once in a while.

Now I flare when I wake up every morning with excessive yawning which doesn't stop until I get out of bed. It takes a break in the summer as I don't seem to ever flare then. I guess I need to move down south.

Haha yeah if it didn't also sometimes happen at other times of the day I would begin to wonder which bugs were actually causing it 😉
