For anyone that's experienced these symptoms, I am wondering which infection you've found these symptoms are attributed to? Also, what does a sudden increase in those two symptoms indicate, herx or pathogen gaining ground?

My ears felt full. Like if I had gone up in altitude but I could not pop them.

My eyes hurt as if I had been punched in the eye and it was tender to the touch.

I just chalked it up to lyme like all the rest of the weird, strange and unusual symptoms.

Lyme, Babesia, yeast/fungal issues are all possible causes.....with Babesia very likely.

I'm sorry I don't remember where you're at with your journey but, if you're in treatment for Lyme, a previously asymptomatic Babesia infection can very well come to the forefront...healing from these infections is likened to peeling layers of an onion.

I just realized I didn't answer your second question.

If you are in treatment, there's a chance you're experiencing a herx.....or, it's possible the symptoms of a different infection are coming to the forefront.

Increased detoxing will help you know whether or not it's a herx. What all do you do for detoxing?

Here are a few ideas for things you can add:

For my ears I did a lymph node massage and boy did that get things moving.

This woman say says to do it 50 times. I would start with 10 and slowly move up. It certainly got my lymph moving that that was the majority cause of my ears.

here's the link:

I'm so glad you shared that suggestion, PeteZa!

I did lymph massage a few times when my lymph nodes were swollen.....talk about relief. I never had ear issues but it makes sense the massage could help. Maybe it can help Hubby's cranky sinuses..
