Healthy Immun System?

I have been on Buhner's Protocol for Lyme and I'm now starting on Bartonella and babesia protocol as well.

However at the moment I feel like a symptom is about to occur when it suddenly goes away before going bad. I'm talking about 10-20 min of a very light symptom and then it suddenly disappears.

I have a really good sense in my gut that I am controlling the disease with all the stuff that has been recommended on "new to lyme?", like detoxing, sleeping well and getting NO sugar/gluten/alcohol, exercise and taking my herbs.

And I have a feeling that the bacteria is now hiding in my joints to protect themselves(hopefully not for long) since the only symptom I have been dealing with is joint pain and sometimes feeling really hot( likely from a suppressed babesia, because that disappears within an 1 hour)

Does this sound crazy at all, that my immun system has finally recognized the bacteria or am I underestimating this dangerous bacteria?

I used to have rashes all over my body, brain fog, tingling/tremors/eye-twitching but now it's only the joint pain (which may be due to the workouts I have been doing three times a week)

FYI, I was bit in April this year.

My herxes are normally mild and short lived. That's good.

A lot of Buhner's herbs help reduce inflammation.

I love your description of the process!!

In my guess, that is what happens when the immune system is slowly kicking in again.

I have that when I'm catching a cold. It takes time for the immune system to recognize the new virus or pathogen, then react.

It either wins or loses, but I know that that EXACT moment is THE moment when all the result will be decided: I either fall ill (lost) or I fight it back (win).

It could ALSO be that your symptoms are NOT from infection ONLY but from toxins: if you are taking many binders and supportive stuff, try to pay attention to TIMING. If there is any relation between the time you take binders, cleansers, and the fact that symptoms DISAPPEAR.

For me, that was a CLEAR equation during lyme: multiple intake of binders during the day made me see my symptoms waxing and waning, and they almost always coincide with binders intake (like 15-60 minutes after binder intake, some symptoms got better or simply vanished, only to return hours later, until I took more binders and they faded again...).

In the end, I got smarter, and took binders BEFORE the appearance of symptoms, so I could keep symptom free during most of the day (on many parts of my body, not on all parts of course).

Anyway, that sounds great! Continue doing the good job!!

I too have that with a cold! I can feel my immune system trying to kick up with beginning symptoms but it then fizzles out. It never mounts the full old reaction I used to get with cold viruses.

So happy for you Chris that you are opposite and overcoming the herx!
