OVer the last 4 days, I have had intense back pain and burning, frequent urination (about 4 times at nite, and 5 times during the day)diarreah and loose stool, burning red ears, Painful jaw for one day, and some pain in my kneees.
Well now I have 3 or four bumps under my right armpit... they are swollen and hurt. They are a little pink... and formed about 2 days ago.
Should I be concerned about this and call the doc? OR do you think I was herxing, and this is a result of the herx?

Jade, it's possible it is a herx but as a precaution you should check with your doc.
The frequent urination, severe back pain and bumps in the lymph glands should be voiced to your doc.

I have had all of your listed symptoms and then some. Maybe you can ask your doctor to decrease your abx to ease the herxing, and then try to ramp up slowly. This has worked for me.
