Well, my LLNP does not know exactly what to do with me: I saw
him about a week ago and felt crummy at that point: tired,
sweaty, and with a rapid heartbeat. He upped my Bicillin to 3
shots a week, and added Plaquenil. I had only been doing the
Plaq for a couple of days and had one additional Bicillin shot
when I got feverish, achey, and exhausted. Over the next week
(last week) spiked a fever of 102 103 over three days. Now the
fever has abated - though I still have a slight one - and I am
sweaty and exhausted. Also having palpitations. He says it could
be: 1-Ehrlichia from a new bite 2-a viral infection 3-Babesia or
4-the mother of all Bicillin herxes (he says Lyme hates fevers & I
must have been killing something off. Any opinions? His advice
was just to stop the Biciliin and Plaq and see what happens..He's
ordered blood work but I can't get it done til Friday.

One suggestion......blood work should not be done on a Friday. Best to do it on a Monday or Tuesday so that it doesn't sit over the weekend.
