IV antibiotics should not make you feel more ill than orals. Some people seem to have more of a herx response than other people no matter what kind of treatment they do. The important thing is that you are getting better, slowly but surely.

thanks guys.....I honestly expected to feel much much worse on IV than when i was on orals....
.i guess something in my head told me that I would herx so hard and for ever !!..........
I dont know why I thought that way i was perhaps thinking that beacause it may penetrate areas orals dont that i would spin out of control not that i wanted that, i just expected that...
My LLMD did tell me that I would prob need help around the house and with the kids so my parents came over, maybe thats why i thought that way.....
but he also told me the intention was NOT to have things out of control which is why he has me on other meds that control my ongoing symptoms........
I think with people talking about Herxing, I expected all my symptoms to get so much worse.......

I had the same question after a week and some change. I am a little more fatigued, I think. And am a little more brain f*cked - which I think is more accurate than brain fogged.
But I expected hell to break loose also.
