Very very sleepy, Very Dizzy, I feel soooo drunk & cant walk properly. Vision is horrible! Feeling even more UNLIKE MYSELF. Im on 2grams daily for 30 days. Is 2grams a regualr dose or too high?

I started on rocephin 2grams a day also. I remember feeling very very sleepy. I walked around just feeling yucky all the time. Not like a herx, just yucky.

I am now on 2gm two-times a day for 4 days a week. Have not herxed yet, gives me something to look forward to. LOL

Are you detoxing? The toxins that are released as the bacteria are killed can cause a wide range of symptoms to either flare, return, or even to start.

There is a post in the "New to Lyme" thread - the 3rd or 4th post down- that explains how to do detox foot baths, detoxing in a regular bath, as well as dry skin brushing -also very important.

These baths have been known to ease all types of symptoms - cognitive, neuro, muscular, joint pains and even the bone pain to some degree.
