Hi Everyone , A large part of the past 2 wks I have been down . stmptoms so bad my left leg & arm almost useless .

my head so scrambled balance so poor I have problems just getting around in the house .

I see llmd for first time next wk . What should I exspect to happen when treatment starts ?

I could hardly wait to get started but right now it's getting scary . the thought of a herx
making things worse is not good .

All info is welcomed thanks BILL [confused]

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it does get worse at first.

My first herx lasted longer than a month, but then I saw improvement.

Start slow and small.

Ramp up slowly so that bacteria die off doesn't make you feel like dying too.

Drink plenty of water.

Come here often for support and understanding.

Hang in there.

Hugs,

Geneal
