Hi everyone,
I just started treatment for Lyme, bartonella, mycoplasma and chlamydia p last week and have been feeling worse for 3 days now. Having worse fatigue, fever (101-103), chills, headache, slight congestion, coughing, body aches, swollen lymph nodes, mild chest pain, muscle twitches, knee pain, sweats and burny eyes.
So basically feel like I have the flu. Before treatment I had these symptoms as well sometimes

Do you think this is a bad herx or may it be a virus/flu anyway..? How to tell?
Thanks

It could be either, but basically you would treat them the same anyway.

Get lots of rest and plenty of liquids. Feel better.
