I'm not exactly clear on the meaning of Herxing. My infused abx ended 1 month ago. I still have symptoms of dizziness, mental disconnection.

I just went for a brisk 1 hour walk and I am light headed and even more disconnected is this Herxing? Is this a good thing?

Herxing is a worsening of symptoms on antibiotics.

Not a month later.

It is caused by a die off of bacteria which release toxins.

You may have more pain, more difficulties and generally feel worse.

I would think that you aren't finished with Lyme and/or

Co-infections yet if you still have symptoms.

Are you seeing a LLMD?

Hugs,

Geneal
