Started antibiotics a week ago and was feeling okay except for some digestive issues.
Today, started feeling flushed, anxious, and the excruciating leg/hip pain has returned. I also have a slight headache and jaw pain.
Started having anxiety and sleep problems a few days ago...hadn't been an issue in months.
Could this be a herx reaction? If so, any suggestions to alleviate the body aches? How long does a herx typically last?

This could defintitely be a herx. Everyone is different. Herxes can last a couple of hours or weeks.
I hope it resolves itself quickly, and that you feel better.
