Been experiencing bad cardiac like symptoms again. Had to stop
mepron and zith for a while. Been on it for 4 months with no problems. Have my llmd on the 4th and made an
appointment with my cardiologist. Im only 36 years old and I'm
having pains and aryhmia like symptoms. Been to so many
cardiologists these past 2 years with no problems. But I fear it's
getting worse. It all started when I went on art for 2 weeks.
Could this be a 2 to 3 week herx ? Im full of fear that I won't live long. Very afraid, very depressed.
Thanks for your ears.

It could be a herx, but you should always be concerned about cardiac issues. Did you call your LLMD and let them know?

My daughter had similar symptoms and still has some palpitations. It started when she took Zith and got better when she added in Flagyl and treated parasites. She said it felt like heart pain and lots of skipped beats. She couldn't tolerate the Zith and switched to Biaxin.
We think most of those symptoms were attributed to Babesia. She was on Mepron for almost 4 months at which time she plateaued, and is now off all abx and treating with herbs. She is only 26 and it's safe to say that Lyme does not discriminate according to age.

The primary herbs she takes are the Healthy Directions Bab1, Bar1 formulas. She also takes Cryptolepis alternating with Wormwood every 2 weeks. Colloidal silver and Cumanda with Burbur detox.
She attempted Samento but started at too high of dose and had a massive herx. She backed off that for now, and will retry later.
I think it's a matter of finding that silver bullet that works for you. We both feel that her main problem is bart right now so we are trying to address that with these herbs as well.
