My symptoms of dizziness and heavy tiredness seem to ease off after 6 pm generally speaking this was a trend I had before I knew I had lyme. It has been a reoccurring trend since I was off abx.

Yesterday and today I reduced drastically the dosage of Buhner protocol....2 capsule only the entire day and 10 drops of Uncaria Rhicifolia. I am trying to pin point if feeling this way is worse after few hrs I take the capsules.

Would you all suggest to do not take a thing tomorrow? Also I do not detox much.....I will start this dry brushing all of you swear by. I cannot do saunas. Drinking water all day long is also an issue with me.....it was in the past. I am forcing myself to do it.

You could skip tomorrow, however I would definitely do a lot more detox because you need to keep treating.

You could do epsom salt baths (or foot baths if you prefer). Also add a squeeze of lemon to the water. Another thing you can do is milk thistle which is easy. Also Alka-seltzer gold and Detox tea. You could take Activated Charcoal as long as you keep it separated from anything else by two hours.

Something that I found helped with dizziness is Pinella and Burbur. Just place 10 drops in a little water.

how much japanese knotweed have you been taking? i was taking 3 tsp of root powder and found when i reduced it in half i was alot less tired and groggy...whether bc it was causing a brain herx or my body just didnt like knotweed in that quantity...when i stopped taking it altogether for a few days i became even more clear...

I take my charcoal in the middle of the night! Lol. I always take my probiotic right before bed so I can't take it then. I just take it when I wake up to use the restroom. It needs to be taken with a lot of water which isn't helpful when trying to sleep but for me I just can't seem to get the time in the day that is separate from everything else.

I am not sure I would do the Pinella and Burbur more than every 15 minutes. It could get pretty pricey and may not be that helpful more often than that anyway. I find it very helpful at 15 minute intervals for an hour or so when I need the "cleansing".

Just curious, probably has nothing to do with it, but do you do much during the day?

My symptoms always lessen later on during the day, but I think it's because I'm less active.

There will be nights where I feel like crap the last couple hours of work, and then.. as soon as I get home and hit my bed, everything decreases tenfold.

It's like the bugs start to relax at the same time I do.

Though, my instructor said there's a full moon tonight (haven't checked to confirm myself), so might not be the case tonight.

My first thought was that adrenals may be involved with some of your feeling bad. If your cortisol levels are higher around 6, then you'll feel more awake, alert or just better in general.

I feel completely awful in the day, but after my cortisol levels spike at 5, I feel a slight better for a few hours until the night sweats hit.

I was going to mention adrenals as well. I know for a fact that my adrenals are low in the am, but then get better as the day goes on, however they are a tad high in the evening.

I just had a doctor appointment today with a new doctor and he was adamant about supporting the adrenals as they are important in overall health.

I don't know if I have Lyme or not yet, but I've also noticed that I'm a little more "with it" later at night.
