Normal healing?

Apologies for sharing my paranoia but don't want to miss anything.

Bit 4th of July weekend. Abx for 42 days. Felt pain/symptom free. Two weeks off abx and tried Banderol, could not tolerate. Started eleuthero this week - felt much better - more energy. Didn't feel great yesterday but still ok. Today feel awful. Very tired, slept later than usual. Just feel tired, blah, unmotivated and sort of weak feeling with possible brain fog (but that may be fatigue). It is also 90 degrees with heavy humidity. Still detoxing and did take hot epsom bath last night and stayed in it longer - second warm bath since lyme - first one Wednesday for 3 minutes, last night for 10 minutes. Baths do coincide with my feeling worse. Coincidence?

Detox/supplements: Eleuthero, Sun Warrior Immune Shield, sublingual Gluthione, B12, DK, multi + minerals, collodial silver, astragalus, wobezyme PS, probitoic, prebiotic, yogi detox tea, spirulina, dry brushing, lots of lemon water, ACV, C, magnesium and magnesium oil spray on body, essential oils.

Killing herbs still not here! Arriving some time between today and September 14.

Thanks.

"Baths do coincide with my feeling worse. Coincidence?" No, the Epsom salt/peroxide baths do make many people herx. The fact that you stayed in it longer and you feel worse today should not be ignored.

And you are taking things that will kill the bacteria still. Eleuthero (raises the immune function), Immune Shield, & colloidal sliver.

It sounds like you still need to investigate your detoxing needs further and go easy with those baths.

LOL! That's because it IS confusing!! If you were doing well with those things before the baths, then no, don't stop them.

Epsom salt soaks move the toxins from the tissues (where they are stored), into the blood stream - which can make us herx if our other toxin elimination pathways aren't working well or are already overloaded. So it's a matter of how many toxins you 'release' and how fast your body can detox them out effectively.

Things like constipation, liver congestion, and other things can have a big impact on how well we can eliminate those toxins. So we have to remember that we are trying to find that delicate balance of making and getting rid of toxins. This isn't always easy to find!!

Artemix,

LOL on no washing. I have to shower every day even if it is two minutes.

Are you only taking herbs now? Did you ditch all your supplements? I may stop the colloidal silver and astragalus for now while adding in more eluethero and starting the ashwaganda.

Please keep us posting on your lifting! Inspirational!

Peteza,

Hi. Yes makes perfect sense. I feel I'm taking too much right now. May stop CS/astragalus. I'm not starting anything new until Monday when I add in ashwaganda.

Tahnks.
