Thus past Thursday night was the worst I have ever felt.
It started out with a bad headache (different from my normal head pressure). tried to use an ice pack but I got no relief.
Then once getting into bed aftertv, around 10, I started to feel nauseated. I tried to fall asleep. Then, blood pressure got really slow and I felt scared to fall asleep. Anxiety started to kick in, started feeling dizzy, even for nauseated, panicked. Had to walk around, get some lemon water, burbur, and parsley extract. I drank a full cup.
I sat up in my bed for 30 minutes. Usually after I drink that combination my herx symptoms go away. This time they were. I started to feel very cold, fatigued. A part of my leg twitched really bad for a few seconds and my left calf tightened up and started hurting. My heart would race at times. I had to go to the bathroom 2-3 times (#2.. stools were normal) which is unusual for me. I felt really jittery and not well at all. Eventually my headache kind of went away. I was up until 1:45 until my mind and body felt comfortable enough to fall asleep. I also woke up again around 2:30 feeling really weird, stayed away till 3:30, then was able to fall asleep. Woke up around 9 feeling kind of normal, but with my head pressure. Also feel pretty fatigued.
I have been doing my normal protocol (Mepron, Bactrim, Chlorella, supplements, Cholestyramine)
However, 1.5 weeks ago I started Quintessence which has Androphraphis, chinese smilax, Japanese Knotweed, and red root (BioPure brand) and Gastromycin, which has, Licorice root, grapefruit seed extract, goldenseal root extract, aloe vera extract, and activated charcoal (Allergy Research Group brand). I take both of these in the middle of the day. Now that I look back on all these ingredients it seems like a lot.
I was so close to going to the Er. I literally thought I was dying. I still feel weird/out of it and a little jittery. Has anyone ever experienced anything like that before?? I have felt like that a few times, but that was magnified x100, no joke.
Now I am worried about appendicitis. It hurts so bad when I press down. It's right above my hip bone and a pain radiates through my abdomen.
The past few days I have felt very weird and not my normal Lyme self. I've had chills nausea fatigue soreness all over. Many other weird symptoms. I'm really worried about this and am not sure what to do. I am also terrified of the potential hospital bill. Will the hospital completely shun my positive Babesia test and Lyme treatment?
I am also wondering if I am herxing and killing parasites? This past thursday-yesterday I felt like I was herxing heavily (at least thats what I hope was happening) then the stomach and right side pain started last night. I am wondering if the new herbs is killing parasites in my gut? I started Quintessence and Gastromycin.
I have no fever and I still have an appetite. There is just an annoying pain/inflamed feeling it my gut area. I also have my head pressure, fatigue and I just feel blah.
