Hello,
I have been diagnosed since June, symptoms since September 2011, and have been treated with 2 different protocols. From June-August I was doing ceftin 500 mg twice daily, and starting the first week of September I started the cowden protocol.
Right now for a day and a half so far I have felt a weird burning, achy feeling in all my muscles and have had a headache on and off (which is odd for me). I am wondering if this is a herx? I'm scared it's just a normal lyme attack :( Which would be frustrating because I haven't had any other flares since I started treatment. What are everyones herxes like here?
While on ceftin I thought I didn't have any herxes. Now that I think about it though I felt this exact same way at the end of August (exactly 30 days ago actually..) but it was much less intense and it only lasted for about 24 hours so I didn't think much of it.
One more thing- I have been trying to detox and it hasn't been working, which isn't' a good sign. Of course I've never detoxed before so I don't know what works for me. I have been doing 10 drops of burbur every 10 min for an hour, and it seems to help slightly for a while and then go back to how it was before.
Should this detox be working? What does this sound like to you guys and do you have any suggestions? I'm confused.
