Hi all, I have a semi-traditional mixed bag of nasty neuro symptoms. When your symptoms are in periods of flare-up, do they cycle during any given day? I am freaking out because I have been generally flaring up and/or herxing over a couple of weeks. I seem to go a half day feeling great, low/few symptoms, low anxiety, and then some symptoms flare up, the anxiety kicks in, and then all the other symptoms flare up even worse (apparently) as a result of the anxiety. It is a wicked roller coaster. Seems to be worst in the afternoon and late in the night. Just wondering if it is like this for others, and would apreciate some suggestoins for managing the situation. Thanks!
Get better!
Peace...

When I was flaring, I felt it was the Bartonella that was causing it. All my bart symptoms would be magnified 10 fold.. Since I have been on A-Bart I have not had those flares. It's only been 4 weeks but so far so good.

wg, I would have intense chest pain along with upper abdominal pain.. Loss of appetite and severe fatigue. Those would be my dominant symptoms, but I also would have short term memory loss and anxiety. I think the best way to describe it is it feels like all of my internal organs become really inflamed.

During those severe flares I would be housebound. I've been really functional since I've been on the BW formula, and crossing my fingers that it continues..

Even the really horrible, morning chest pain that I would get everyday is much resolved.
