I swear by this symptom as others such as Anxiety that are not a "True" anxiety or "Depression".
I can feel something weird in the front of my head that makes me feel like I'm gonna cry, especially since starting the Mepron.
Sometimes, if I get up and walk around, it gets better, like it's an Autonomic Dysfunction symptom.
No crying x 2 days after a 3 day Mepron break, but I feel it creeping back up again. Just went swimming with my kids and while in the pool, the sensation went away and it had NOTHING to do with getting my mind off of it.
For me, the emotional stuff is Def. a symptom and some kind of synthetic / organic type reaction.
Then there are total outright Herx's where I feel super duper depressed and that is different from the other type of crying I'm describing here.
Why can't Lyme & Co. affect the happy center and make us all laugh ? Funny when you think about it that every single symptom is negative.
I've yet to hear anyone ever say they like when they Herx b/c the feel "________" which would be a good thing.
Just my thought for the day.........

Sounds like your very toxic to me. I can tell you I have have experienced the same exact thing and it felt so fake and I was laughing about myself crying while I was crying.Really strange. This only happened to me on Flaygl when I herxed out of my mind and was convinced I was going to die seriously die. lol. I'm starting Tindamax tomorrow so I better prepare myself for round two...
Have you tried taking Cholestyramine to bind up some of those toxins. Man cause sounds like your killing alot of bugs and just need to detox hardcore too. I may be wrong. That's just what happened with me it that situation..

I've cried off and on all day like a 3 year old.
I could win an Academy award for my crying scenes because I can cry ugly on command.
And it's not really a depression feeling. It feels like I have the nervous system of a newborn.

Lymetwister,you still crying? Im so sorry that this has gone on so long for you. Mepron is tough no doubt about it. I trust you are hitting all the detox protocols.Coffee enemas were the silver bullet in my toolbox.

I cry the most around my menses each month. But other times out of the blue. I dont think it's an effect of meds.. rather hormones and of course who would not get depressed and cry from time to time having to go through the pure hell of this horrid disease?
