Well the decision has been made to start IV treatment next month.

As I have medicare I will be going to the docs everyday 7 days a week for 4 months. Does this sound right with no breaks at all?

I also herxed my way into bed 20 months ago on oral's. Was in bed for 6 weeks. My twitching and spasming became very intense. I was also introduced to crawlers they were hell and lasted for months. Will I go through this again?

I would say I am at about 80% now, which really sucks. It is like I have had a lobotomy now. I also have constant anxiety. Should I expect this to change with this treatment?

I am heartbroken I can not continue my job search. I know returning to work would be tough but I felt it was going to be a big step in getting my life back.

So that is my situation. Tired of this hibernation, it is like house arrest. I wonder if I ever get into any legal trouble if having Lyme would be considered time served.

Take care and peace.

Daily is how I did it for twelve months. Herxes are bad but depend on the person. It is vital that you go one a anti yeast diet and use antifungals(natural or presription) during this treatment. You should start feeling better in time. I saw real improvement at the three month point.

I was able to use medicine balls at home so if I was feeling decent I could just take it with me but depends on your insurance.

I hope this is the answer for you and you see great improvement.
