My doc Rxed me 750mg Tetra b.i.d one month ago. The first 3 weeks were fine in fact I actually felt better for about 10 days.
I could run errands and do things without dreading it and having to force myself to do so.
This past Sunday it hit, which was the start of week 4. I'm 95% neuro so that's where the herx hit hardest.
It was intolerable as my "baseline" is probably worse than most people feel when they herx like heck. I work about 10 hours a week on my computer and even that is very difficult.
I called my doc yesterday and she told me to take a break until I feel like it has cleared and call her back. My last dose was Sunday night.
So my question is for those that had to take a break, how long did it take for you to clear up? It hasn't quite been two days so I know I need more time and am drinking gallons of water with lemon.
I know much of it is based on genetics and liver status, but it would be nice to feel life-like soon. This is going to be a long long journey. Thanks,
Tim

Yes, it will be a long journey. But you will get well!! Probably won't have to take a break longer than a few days. Let's hope!
What you experienced is the 3-5 wk herx ... it cycles like that over and over again.
So, as soon as you feel better, get after it again!!
