I just started the Bryon White A-L Complex today. Instructions are to take 1 drop 2x/day and increase by 1 drop each day until herx.

I took it at 7:30 am and now at 4:30 pm, I feel like I'm getting a herx already (head feels a little dizzy and I feel slightly naseous). Is this even possible!?

And if so, I'm thinking I should skip the 1 drop dose tonight. Do you all agree? Thanks!

First of all, and quite seriously, did you eat a good breakfast and a good lunch? If so, I apologize.

Otherwise, in my personal opinion, I would say that it could be a herx if you are fairly compromised by Lyme. You could have been in a situation where your body was being over run with the bacteria so by taking even one dose, you started killing of massive numbers of that bacteria. If you feel worse by the time it time to take the evening dose, it wouldn't hurt to skip that dose and wait until morning.

Do be sure that you are detoxing, as this will help your body deal with that die off.
