I took minocycline for a few weeks but had to stop due to stomach pains. I had heart palpitations and chest pressure while taking it but felt better once I stopped. Five days ago I started taking Samento and Banderol and the chest pressure and heart palpitations are back. I have worked up to 2-3 drops. My resting pulse is 96-110 and it would normally be around 72. Is this a herx or a reaction to the herbs? I have been taking chorella to detox. Should I reduce my drops? How long do these reactions last? Has anyone used Samento/Banderol successfully? Thanks for any advice.

My first severe Herx caused heart palpitations, shortness of breath and fainting. I was told this wasnt an allergic reaction, but my LLMD did reduce my ABX to help with my detox issues. Eventually the Herxing disappeared. as well as the palpitations. Herbs can also cause Herxes, but you could also be allergic to them as well.

Thats why its critically important for you to contact your doctor immediately and discuss these symptoms. Its probably just a Herx, but a medical expert does need to separate this from an allergic reaction, which could be serious.
