I took two biaxin today and i'm having severe head pain in center of forehead, and intracranial pressure and cognitive probs.
I know this is typical for lymies...is it the die off from the biaxin (neurotoxins?) that causes this or is it that I haven't been treated for bartonella yet?
Does Bartonella treatment take this misery away? Does flagyl help this?
I hate this symptom

I've been treated for bartonella, and supposedly have it beaten, but I still get the headaches.
Have you tried Diamox for the intracranial pressure?
I just answered your reply to the thread I started about whooshing in the head. I get severe headaches sometimes too, but don't always get these sx at the same time. That causes confusion for me about whether the cause of the two sx is the same.
BTW since you asked about Flagyl, I'm on it this week along with my other abx, and my headaches have been unusually severe. I suspect I'm busting some cysts.

I've read a ton about Diamox on here. I'll definitely mention it to llmd in a few weeks. Thanks!

Consider E-EPA (Omega 3) from GNC...
To reduce inflammatory cytokines.
Follow bottle directions and then adjust dosages up as tolerated/needed.
