Diagosed with Lyme in July 2008. Treated twice

and now I am on my third treatment. Anyway,

when I was first diagnosed, I had a swollen

knee. After that the tingling started.

After the 2nd round of treatment it went away.

Back to now...

I started my new abx protocol on April 1st.

Ceftin 7 days a week and Doxy 5 days a week.

The tingling started to appear again a little on

April 3rd and now it is much, much worse. It is

everywhere and can be quite intense. Is this a

herx? The only other thing going on is that I am

tired but that is starting to lift a little.

Thanks for any advice. It has been a long week

and it is only Wednesday!

Worsening of lyme symptoms is a herx.

It very well could be. If it was happening too me I would call it a herx
