About herx timeing - does herxing begin a different number of days after starting a new treatment for differnt treatments? (HUH?)
Say, after 4 days for abx 1 vs 2 weeks for abx 2.
Different for different people?

I think it is different for different people.
We may have different strains... keet loads,,, coinfections....immune system strength and who knows what else different.
Best wishes

The general observation FOR LYME seem to be 4 days after startng a new drug. Exceptions to this might occur with long half life drugs and low doses (as the peak drug level will occur over time). A good example of this long half life effect is fluconozole.
If it takes longer then you might have something going on with coinfections. If it occurs earlier then it IS co infections of some sort (bartonella type stuff).
It could alo be a result of "normal" fluctuations in symtoms that occur for some unknwon reason.
Thats my take on it, for what its worth.

You mean like co-inciding with the 4 week lifecycle of Bb?
