Yes, you did do something wrong and whatever it was (pretty sure it was not art!)it effected your mental state and now you are definitely CRAZY!
If you are that ill, heed all of the advice you have been given and go to a doctor!!!!
I think you should stop posting about this and respect people who are legitamitely trying to find out information and help on this site.
Get some help and then get back to use as to how things worked out.
There are many people who come here seeking answers and are new to the whole lyme thing----you perpetuate the label that lymies are a little off of their rocker by continuing to post.

Polar, in all of your posts, I don't see an answer to the question,
"What does your LLMD tell you to do now?"
Surely you've talked to him. What does he say? You need to read Bea's advice again and again. I believe lyme and coinfections are the problem, not Art poisoning.
The symptoms you list are indicative of lyme and babesia and some kind of autonomic dysfunction - the type of havoc these diseases wreak but one which can be fixed with treatment.
How does your LLMD propose to treat you now? Plenty of docs treat without art, by the way - just Mepron and Zith.
Can you answer the LLMD portion of this post without saying you've overdosed, please? I know you're worried. Stay focused. We've been there.

I will agree with you on one thing...that he needs to seek medical attention NOW.
However we all know the lack of concern when we show up shouting Lyme disease and all that we feel inside going on in our body's and were looked at as tho we are CRAZY!.
It is not a fun place to be in.
I think it is everyone's WISH at this moment for this man to GET HELP NOW - demand to be observed - heck even for just one night thru the ER!
But to the other part about him posting to much or whatever...
This I do need to say - this man feels ALONE...this man is SCARED....this man does not know what is happening to him.....this man isn't able to get anyone to understand him.
I think many of us have been right where he is now at one point or another during our yrs and or journey with LYME - it's very unpredictable.
Feeling ALONE and SCARED is very scary in of itself - needing support and understanding and not getting it is scary in of itself....
Being among others who do understand - lending support - and handing out a HUG - and or just letting someone know SOMEONE CARES can be a calming and or healing factor in of itself!
Bottom line - we all want for this man the same thing - were all in this together!

No, the part in bold:
What does your LLMD say about all this?
How does he think you should proceed?

OK. You've talked to him about your problems you're having, right? What does he want you to do next?

Well, I would call and confirm it's OK to be taking nothing by way of antibiotics until you see him. Because he might be expecting that you are presently still ON the mepron/zith.
If he OK's you being off all meds, then just use the "break" to detox, detox, and detox.
Try some of the really good suggestions for detox I've seen on here, such as chorella, water with lemon, hot baths with epsom salts, lots of rest.
I know your symptoms seem overwhelming. But when your infection is cleared, things will be much better. I'll be glad when you can get back on the treatment wagon.
