I was so afraid to start flagyl because of the horrible herx everyone talks about. Started it Sunday and feel great. I even went 24 hours without taking Ibuprofen. That has not happened since the day I got my first sx.

I'm already taking 1/2 pill three times a day and will work up.

Has this happened to any of you??? I hope I don't jinx myself and end up in bed tomorrow.

My son actually tolerated flagyl pretty well. He herxed some, some slight depression, but nowhere near some of the problems encountered by others on this board.

I take 9 tablets per day. Some symptoms got somehow worse, but I am laughing anyway.

wow u all are so lucky. I started taking flagyl last week. I had to stop for two days and then cut my dosage down by half. I take 250mg 3x day. I still get nautious and REALLY tired. However, I can't sleep. I am starting to get horrible headaches and stomach pains. I hope this is all herx and i will start to feel better soon-but i have a feeling that I'm going to be on this med for a long time. How long have u all been on it? Do you all take ne thing else. I am also taking mino and valtrex
