Can bart herxes come weekly?
Not sure what is going on. I added Rifampin and Doxy to Ceftin and plaquenil a few weeks ago.
Nausea, back pain, feet pain and legs burning are coming weekly and lasts for a few days.
Yuk! So tired and burned out.

I had pain daily while treating bart. The pain gets worse before it gets better while on bart meds. I don't know about your nausea, though. Maybe it's from one of your meds? Are you taking all of them with food?
It sounds like you are herxing from bart, babs and lyme. Babs has 7 and 14 day cycles.

Yes...pain is daily, just worse every 3-4 days.
I am taking all meds with food...seems like some people have nausea from the beginning of lyme, others not. It just really started for me in January....end of babs treatment and bart symptoms getting worse.

Does bart cause burning sensations? This has been a symptom that I just can't get rid of. Wondering if it could be bart.

Bart definitely causes burning for me.

Yes, I had burning on feet, foot pain, and eye problems (doc said it was bart). My foot pain got worse on bart meds for about 2 mos, but then it started to get better. Bart is a long haul. So many people go undetected (I did). Hang in there.

Rzr, I wouldnt take rifampin with food. Empty stomach is better as it absorbs better.
