Herxing question

I’ve been treating for over a year now. I had horrible problems the 1st 5 to 6 months. I haven’t stopped treatment. I was improving for the last 6 months slowly. Then out of the blue boom. All the same systems back to where i started. My question is. Does herx happen in the stomach? Most of my problems are in my stomach which causes mass inflammation. I’m taking everything that I’m supposed to be. I eat all organic, detox properly all that. I take herbs and citus incanus tea. Pulse mino here and there. I was able to start golfing again, exercising again. Stomach sounds like MT. St Helens.. Just absolutely nuts.

I’ve treated for yeast. Plus used oil of oregano. I eat super super healthy. Salad every day 1st meal. All organic. Cistus tea is excellent for yeast and all that. I’ve had a routine for months, that has made me improve. Then bang. It’s just so confusing. I’ve got bart & lyme. Makes no sense how you can go 5 months with minimal symptoms and return to like where you started. I’m 100% dedicated to my routine. Haven’t stopped for 1 day.

That must be so frustrating!

Is there a chance that you were exposed to mold or some other environmental toxins? Allergens?

One thing I highly recommend to all lymies is take lipsomal colostrum!! Buy the good stuff.

When did you start the Cistus tea? I've tried it twice and it releases biofilms so some of my original symptoms come back with it. That is probably what is happening. You are not relapsing if you have been treating this whole time.

The systematic enzymes also have serrapep in it.

that does sound frustrating!

have any lifestyle or environmental factors changed recently?

stress levels have gone up - or a stressful event happened - work, bereavement, domestic situation change etc etc
as you probably already know - people with this condition are particularly susceptible to stress and often develop physical symptoms from it - and sometimes we are so busy getting on with our daily challenges we dont quite realize there has been a change.

has your sleep suddenly worsened?

could you have been exposed to something harmful - mold has been mentioned - but there are other chemicals that can trigger this for some - eg pesticides, cleaning products - even cosmetic products for some etc

it could also be some kind of stomach bug - if most of the symptoms are gut-related - I have had flares of this for unknown reasons over the years - i assume it is because the immune system is damaged and i'm more susceptible to getting gut infections as a result. eg like a mild gastro virus or something similar.
my other symptoms tend to worsen when this happens - but not back to square one - maybe halfway at worst - but its not pleasant. usually passes in a week or two.
i typically take something herbal for stomach bugs - but unsure if this helps it pass sooner or not,.
