Thank you for letting me know, lyme in Putnam. It doesn't sound good at all - as headaches are among my most debilitating Babesia symptoms.
Wishing you the best, sending you a PM ...

I hope you are feeling better Lyme in Putnam! You did this for just 5 days?
How long are people usually on this combo? A few months? Sounds intense.

That is a heavy protocol. I've been on Leucovorin and Daraprim. Concentrate on detoxing. I was starting to have more good days but my body wasn't detoxing well after about 8 rounds of it so it was discontinued. I anticipate having to go back on the protocol eventually.
I'm sorry you are experiencing headaches. I have headaches every day and have to take ibuprofen to control them. They may be due to the medication or the die-off or just the bugs.
