I had to stop probiotics when I went into the hospital, but was discharged with Mycelex Losanges which are antifungal and used to treat Candida as it's all over my tongue and god knows where else.
I've been sucking on 5 losanges per day and my tongue is still coated.
I woke up this morning with some of my usual symptoms, but I was and have been freezing cold and it's nice outside. Anxiety is unusually high and just aching all over. I gagged a few times over the toilet from terrible nausea.
I'm drained as can be, much more than usual. It seems like whatever I take now, just makes me sicker all around.
How I got this, I have no idea since I havn't been on abx. Things are easing up a little now, but I have felt like death all morning, just groaning from the discomfort.
Kids off to the Zoo with my wife. I am so tired of feeling sick and not being able to do things with my family.

Didn't you just do some IV rocephin for a couple of days? Did you forget? That could of easily set it off especially if you already had it brewing.
Remember you had a herx from the coconut oil? I know sometimes I forget things. Maybe some coconut oil will help? Hope you feel better,

When I first took Nystatin it threw me into a herx that took a week to come out of. I had to restart little by little and now can take it okay.

I say yes too..sometimes I cannot tell what is a lyme die off from abx and what is a candidas die off.
Everynow and then I take a product called Candigone when I really want to get agressive but have had very good results with just Oil of Oregano and Olive Leaf Extract combined with pro.'s.
Does anyone know HOW to tell the difference between lyme die off and candidas die off?

You don't have to be on abx to get systemic yeast. I just started back on Diflucan and BOY can I feel it!

yes, definitely i have herxed hard from a yeast die off. sometimes just as hard as a lyme herx.
diflucan works the best for thrush & systemic yeast for me, but everyones so different. ya have to get your liver function tests though if your on it for some time.
may be worth will to do a search here - some studies have suggested it can hit some forms of the lyme as well.
the above is not meant for medical advise - just my 2 cents
