I try rifing a few time, and after each time, the next day I seem to have greater anxiety. Bart is my major problem I think, or so Dr. M says. He of course doesn't support rifing I do this on my own with a friend who has a rife machine. yesterday I only did 10 minutes on the machine. I am also takingn mino and the supportive vitamins he recommends and just started the heel detox kit to help with the pain around my liver area. But wondering Does anyone else out there experience anxiety herxing from rifing? Or anxiety herxing from antibiotics who have Bart? Is that a common side effect?

Is it safe to say that if you take antibiotics and you have WAY more anxiety from the Herx, that this is a Bart thing?
I'm telling you, my anxiety has gone through the roof since taking abx.
My best friend since kindergarten ( we've known each other 37 years and live 4 houses away from each other ) can come over to my house now, and just her being here makes me panicky. It makes no sense. If I'm comfortable around anybody, it's her.
But it seems like somebody can just look at me anymore and the anxiety goes up. I get dizzy.
I get anxious in the bathtub or shower, and if I walk to the mailbox.....things that I normally enjoy.
I think it's that I feel way more off-balance and loopy, and that scares me.
It was never like this before I got sick. I got terrible anxiety once I was sick, but it went to a whole new level once on abx.
This is so dang frustrating when all my co-fections tests were negative.

Bart anxiety is such a difficult thing to deal with. I upped the xanax and sleep when the anxiety gets too much. I agree with you both that I think it must be a a herx type of thing. Thank you both for your thoughts and I hope you feel better soon.

I had a terrible bout with it before bart was dx. even when it simmered down it was always there.
and then cyclically flaring during tx with abs (ongoing but improving).
I find that homeopathic aurum metallicum 200K works very well where little else has to blunt it and even sometimes disappears.
an oh what a relief that is...

Hambone, does your LLMD not treat you for coinfections if you test negative but have symptoms? Find another doctor. Really.

I'm getting concerned. I have been unbelievably good the past few weeks. Anxiety has gone away completely. My Bart symptoms have dropped drastically at 6 weeks of treating with Cipro. Should I be bracing for another wave? !#$@!
