Hey all:
Have this problem recently when I am on my week on abx and several days following.Am good the following week off meds.

When my body is at rest-worse in the morning when I am half a wake my body flex's and stretches then relaxes.

This goes on for a long time.It is so bad that I am afraid I'll pop another disc in my back.And when i wake up am sore all over.

This also happens when I am bed in the afternoon resting flat.Never when I am moving around.

Has any one experienced this? Could this be a cns herx?A siezure or new symptom?

Am gonna call my LLD on Monday but till then I was hoping for any feed back.Thanks
[shake]

5dana,

this happens to me, it feels like everything tenses up, my back arches then relaxes and it goes on for a long time, especially in the morning. It never feels bad enough to pop a disc but it's uncomfortable and quite scary.

It seems like a cns symptom to me, it happened before I took antibiotics but it's got worse since I started so hopefully that's a sign that the abx are getting to the part of the brain this is coming from.....do you think?

Thanks Elinor for replying.

You described to a tea exactly what is happening to me.

But do your muscles feel sore after the flexing ?

I hope also this is a possible sign that the abx are hitting the brain.

The whole disease is so bizzare like some monster movie I wish I could just pop out of my dvd player.
Getting puchie here .sorry .Thanks again and hope you feel better soon.

Here is a good saying I read on condors site.
"We must embrace pain,and burn it as fuel on our journey" [bonk]

Wish I knew how to do this!

Hi again Dana,
sometimes my muscles feel very tight and sore in the mornings......maybe that's because this is happening while I'm asleep, I always notice it when I first wake up but you just made me realise it could be going on all night!!

I told my llmd that I noticed it ever since I had a pseudo-seizure, that is a non-epileptic seizure, a few months ago and he thinks it is some kind of electrical discharge still happening.....freaky!

Yes this illness is too bizarre.
