It can definitely cause herxing...so don't be alarmed that you're relapsing...because you're not.

Your body is ridding itself of toxins and that's hard work. You just have to guts it out and you'll start feeling better sooner than later!

Hang in there.

It can be either the detox or the condition worsening.

However, three days is too short of a time for the Lyme to be causing it. If it is your condition worsening, it's likely to be a coinfection.

I would talk to your LLMD about it. Detox breaks are good, but you don't want it to be for too long in the presence of symptoms.

I had the same response. Glutathione rocks. It's really good for detoxing.
