Been retreating babs 2 months now , and having some good days. Bad days not too awful
Today for the first time in months I am stuck in bed. Feel feverish major nausea and headache. Why would I have such a bad Herx now? I did add tindamax, only 2 days. I took flagyl before over the summer and didn't have to much of a reaction
I am really discouraged.... Not sure if this is the right path anymore.

Are you sure its a herx, and not a virus? Perhaps it is the addition of the tindamax, which would be a good thing, correct?

Anyone else. Really feeling discouraged and miserable. Wonder what's the point of treating when I feel like I'm going in circles

Maybe the Tindamax is hitting cysts, Lyme, garbage, being opened different than Flagyl-
It can pack quite a punch in the beginning. It's the strongest thing I've ever taken.
You could try some binders...
Hope you feel better-

Hope you are taking it with another abx. You released a lot of spirochetes when you opened up those cysts. Try working up the dose gradually.

I am taking mepron and clindamycin as well. I didn't feel too bad taking 10!days straight of flagyl over the summer

maybe detox - at least lemon with water and anti-histamine helps with nausea and vomiting.

When you were taking the flagyl were you also on the mepron and clindamycin?
Based on hubby's experiences I think that both tindamax and flagyl can work on babs -- but they don't do much just by themselves. When added to other babs meds it makes a much more powerful combo.
I would stick with your current combo if you can tolerate it as it sounds like you are really hitting the babs or something that needs to be killed.

No-I was on biaxin, and ceftin I think.
No anti-marials
