Today is my 120th day on ABX. Ceftin/Biaxin 1gr each is the last round so far.

I noticed today after some light exercise, walking, my sweat smells exactly like ammonia. It even tickled my nose like pure ammonia. Im concerned.

Ive been Herxing hard for the last 4 days and have extreme vertigo, anxiety and brain fog..plus the evil stiff neck and brain crushing pressure is back...just finished 30 days of the above abx's .Any Ideas?

In the beginning of treatment, I couldn't believe my body odor...and it was especially awful, because one of my symptoms was olfactory sensitivity.

Within a few months, though, it was normal again.

I think it's the body just getting rid of all these toxins.

Just my .02.

I know what you mean...

my tears even smelled like ammonia. It was weird!

But it has since disappeared, so I don't know if it was the meds I was on?

Andie's theory makes good sense.

Yo stinky...

Call the doctor and report this symptom.

Gotta watch the kidneys, liver, etc. OK?

Once they have advised you on what to do...

PLEASE.. take a bath!

Let us know how it goes.

The doctors call I mean.. NOT the bath!

Stinky here...

Heading to LLMD today..will notify him I am sweating TOP JOB...

A bunch of articles on the net state sweating ammonia is due to liver or kidney failure.... OH GREAT...

Thank GOODNESS my herx broke today...Like someone pulled the cleaver out of the back of my head...plus I dont feel like I'm stuck in a trash compactor. I think, at least now, I will be able to drive to the appointment.

DETOXING, imo, has got to be one of the most important issues. I think more than half the time we end up retoxing because we simply cant physically detox the heavy load.

Pound for pound, sweating has to be high on the detox channel. I read we have over 1 million sweat glands in the skin...thats a large surface area..

Here we are knocking down semi toxic meds to kill a pathogen that when killed produces nuero- toxins, plus all the regular toxic loads that come naturally from our body...not to mention the heavy metals that bind to Bb or the abx induced fungus and yeast....

Taking a leak or poop aint going to cut it...man I hope my liver is alright..
