Hmmm....the herxing can vary due to severity of infection and the persons own particular immune response.

My Bart herxes included an increase in mental symptoms - anxiety, depression, brain fog, memory issues, etc. As well as feeling very fluey and tired.

My bart herxing involves deep bone pain in my shins and also the long bones in both my arms.

By far my worst pain. My muscle and arthritic pain doesn't compare to this deep bone pain. I hate it!!!!!!!

Thanks for the heads up.

I hadn't really thought about Bart herx, more lyme herx.

It's sounds like it occurs despite it being a different bacteria.

I'm pretty sure my son has Bart.

Is it true then that whatever ails you is magnified with therapy before it gets cleared up?

He's been on treatment 1.5 days. The only thing I noticed is that he is more emotional.

I remember my daughter improving without too much of a herx. She had Bart in the stomach.

Thanks for you're help.
