As some of you know I decided to go to a Lyme & Chronic Illness clinic for some of the strongest treatment offered in the country.

I am on day 17 now and have been herxing almost non-stop. These herxes have been the worst I have experienced and they last longer as well.

My current treatment is:

IV Vancomycin 2,000mg a day
IV Antioxidants
IV Glutathione
IV Heparin
Biofeedback
Supplement Support

I do this everyday of the week.
So... no improvements yet, just alot of herxing.

I'll post again in 15-20 days.

Can a true "herx" last 17 days, or would that be detox after herx?

Thanks for posting your progress report.

I'll keep you in my prayers.

I hope you feel a turn for the better soon!

I agree. I did too. Yes, it ebbs and flows, but was constant.

Good luck, Byron!

I was on Vancomycin at that dose every day for six weeks. I herxed constantly from the toxicity of the medication and all of the die off. It took me a month after I stopped taking the vancomycin to notice the improvements I had made. Good luck!

Take care,
Lindsay

Good luck to u hun. I was on 1 gm(which is 1000mg right? lol) twice a day for 5 weeks, which was all i could bare. I thought it was gonna kill me. I herxed the whole time and it took months for me to clear the toxins. Its good youre on the iv Glut...I believe the that is what helped me(not iv, but transdermal, as well as whey protein, and lots of antioxidants). Let us know your progress.
