Update: I think this is more than just a sinus headache

This week (starting last week) I have taken--ONE at a time--Olive Leaf Extract, Oil of Oregano, and Grapefruit Seed Extract to stop bronchitis and a sinus infection.

I've also interspersed the above with about three drops of Samento (which I've been titrating up over the last few weeks).

I just started GSE this morning. My doctor had said try diff. antimicrobials but only one at a time, until I found one that worked.

Now, my head hurts on the very top of my head, my forehead, behind my ears (where the ear pieces for my glasses end) and on the back of my neck. The pain is sharpest in the center of my skull--top of head. It was also doing this before I started the GSE, but started feeling better this morning.

I had a good day today, until this hit me like a ton of bricks, all of a sudden. I also feel sick. Is this a herx? Do I need to finish out the "full dosage" of my GSE so the infection doesn't come back, you know, the way you do it with abx when you are treating an acute infection--i.e. if you stop the abx too soon, the acute infection (not talking about Lyme) will come back? Or can I stop the GSE, and eventually go back to my gradual titration up on my Samento?

That's sounding more like a die off reaction from Lyme with a possible encephalitis type reaction. As I said in your other post about this, I think it's time to talk with your doctor about this again. They may need to lay eyes on you and examine you.

Actually, I think I am going to make an appointment with him, and "eat" the money. The thing is, can you fly with a headache like that? There's no other way for me to get there.
