Rich, PLEASE go slow on the herbs...it is not recommended anywhere to start at the highest dose!!!!! People start with 1 or 2 drops of Samento or Cumanda and add one drop per day to reach the proper dose. Herbs can be just as strong or stronger than abx and you can certainly have bad herxes from them.
I'm not sure what kind of GSE you have but 200 drops sounds crazy to me. We take 10 or 15 drops twice daily.

Hi tickbattler, I have never herxed on anything. I just want to finish off my Nutribiotic GSE so I just want to end it and move onto the Agrisept-L GSE. Taking such small doses never seemed worth it so with any herbs I have ever tried I always went to the top sode. Not a good idea for most I know.

I hope I herx so bad, I am in bed for weeks. It says start with 2 drops and work your way up to 15. I think if you tolerate meds and herbs well, start strong. I started off with 15 and am up to 20 drops now on Enula for example and some of the others.

Hard herxing is nothing to brag about. In fact, Dr. J (ND) believes that hard hexes that knock us on our butts is a sign of poor treatment. I tend to agree with him.
It's very hard on your body to have to deal with the shock of the huge die off and you can really make yourself sick going overboard.
I understand your desire to get rid of this disease as quickly as possible, but if you go too fast you'll actually slow your healing process down by overtaxing your body with toxins.
Toxins don't always come out of your body as quickly as you'd like. Slow but steady is the way to go.
You can get VERY sick with toxin overload. Be careful!

So far no herxing and I have been doing the herbs full strength from day one. Not sure what this means.
I am doing Banderol, Burbor, Cumanda, Samento, Enula and Agrasept-L, plus enzymes.

Richedie: Am wondering how you are doing on the Cowden protocol?
Also, wondering if those who are taking the Beyond Balance herbals are still seeing success? What symptoms have resolved, and are you taking them with abx?
Wishing good health to all!
