So ive been doing real good I am sleeping great,fatigue has lifted a lot of pain has disappeared but 4 weeks ago got a bad pain in between shoulder and shoulder blade in my back I figured pulled muscle maybe it was heck for 3 days and slowly went away alittle until it was all gone now son of a gun if it aint back exactly the same but in my right shoulder not left this time could this be a herx and also all anxiety type crap in my head has been gone for 3 weeks or more so I feel like I am on the up and up.Thanks

It could just be (Just? rolleyes) the organisms working on your nerve sheath coverings.

Wonderful about the anxiety being gone! Are you taking any treatment now? I've found that Japanese Knotweed is great for targeting random pains and aches, but I can't say it would work for nerve pain because I've never quite figured out what mine has been from all these years.

Lyme symptoms come and go with no reason at all.

Lyme is such a weird disease there is no real symptom list and then the symptoms MIGRATE and are never the same.

Lyme sucks! Sorry but that is the only way to adequately describe it.

Oh I forgot to add about that stupid anxiety. I do not know where it comes from, but both hubby and I had it. And both hubby and I had to figure out how to deal with it. He worked out in the yard to alleviate his. I did bookkeeping to deal with mine.

I actually think that doing something besides sitting around and feeling it is the best way to IGNORE it. I don't think ignore is the best word. Maybe distracted is a better word for how we handled it.

This is your reason for the increased pain and other symptoms - you're herxing. I am currently dealing with very same issues (from herxing too) with the between the shoulders pain and stiffness - and it's miserable.

I would encourage you to increase your detoxing.

Agree with Traveler - you recently started two antibiotics, plus a biofilm buster. This caused a herx.

Exactly.


I have some pains that come and go...and there's noway i'm injuring/healing/injuring/healing over and over again...especially since I'm not doing 'anything' to injure the area.

You mean getting the 'bugs'?

If you're talking about antibiotics...there isn't a specific one for the muscles.
Just keep treating the infections.

...and detox to get rid of the toxins from the die-off.

My neck - left side - recently had flared for a few days (after over a year of being good) ...this was after changing up my Rifampin dosing.
I think it was a herx...as it has subsided again.

Thanks l have been doing 16 hour work days I have not been detoxing at all I really should be but once you feel better you take it for granted
Posted 3/10/2017 11:57 PM (GMT 0)
16 hour work days! Yikes...

I would caution you on that...you don't want to wear your body down...

There are herbs that will penetrate muscles. I will leave it to someone else that has done abx and herbs simultaneously to comment on that.
