Tomorrow!! [Big Grin] Ya never know. Hope it doesn't hit you too hard.

To minimize the herxing, follow a good diet. [Less to kill off!]

Lymetoo, what is an example of a good diet? (I'm serious, lol!) What should be avoided?

Roxy... SUGAR! Go easy on the fruit. Granny Smith apples are OK.

NO simple carbs like potatoes, pasta, bread.

I'll see if I can bring up my links and info. My other computer is not cooperating.

Eat green vegetables and proteins.

hope that helps!! [Cool]

Are you thinking the Diflucan will make you herx due to yeast or Lyme? I ask b/c I'm on it now and herxed like crazy!

Well I am on it for Lyme. I just hope it kills something. I am sure yeast is having a party in my body.

When I had yeast problems, I'd have major fatigue within 24 hours of taking Diflucan.

Hey Merry,
I've taken it for lyme and it hits between a week to a week and a half.

Keep us updated!

I just got put on Diflucan 100mg yesterday...I'm suppose to take it every 3 days.
I had no idea it could cause a herx???

So it helps kill Lyme as well as yeast???
How do I know if it causes me a herx?

Merrygirl--how are you doing on the diflucan? I just started it last night (along with amoxycillin) and was wondering how you were faring. [Smile]

I guess I just learned something new. I started in Diflucan 3 days ago. Did not have any idea it would cause a herx. I was on for a week or so once before and I thought it made me feel better.
