So I'm on malarone/doxy/zith and ART
lately, every morning I get this wave of fatigue and I have to go back to bed. My muscles feel very week-I have a burning/achy feeling in my thighs, bottom of my legs (along the whole shin bone) and it is hard just holding a book to read-my shoulders hurt
I am also short of breath-not sure if that's because my POTS is bad in the morning
I'm starting week 7 of abx-week 4 of malarone
Is this herx from lyme, babs or who know what else
The fatigue is overwhelming (also got my period again today-lovely)

i dont know what it is, but if it IS a herx, shortness of breath is a big symptom of Babs, and babs symptoms might be flaring since you are now treating it.
Dont hesitate to call your DR and ask him!

Have you had your ferritin tested lately? I get like that when my iron is low.

Myself your achy feeling in your thighs, bottom of your legs are babesia herx (resemble my babesia herx))
