I have been herxing - I think- for two weeks - after my rifing. Not an every day herx but every other and not bad enough to keep me in bed or the couch. Just overall fluish, neck ache,fatigue. I have been rifing since mid May and had a great Sept/Oct feeling much better.
I am not sure now this is a herx. We are down in Arizona for the winter from WA state. Rifed right after we got here. I have read in Rosner's book that sometimes a change in environment can mutate the bacteria back to the spirochetes.
I have been keeping my rifing to every two weeks. It is now a few days past my two weeks and still am not free of symptoms.
Do I wait until I feel better for a few days in a row to rife or go ahead and zap these bugs now. Beth

It is your call, but have you considered the sun exposure in Arizona may be contributing to your symptoms?
If you decide to Rife, keep it short and see what happens. You will have to determine if you are not detoxing properly or if it is still a Herx. I doubt a Herx would last more than two weeks, but if you cannot excrete toxins, it is possible.

Thanks Dan, I value your opinion and have learned a lot from all your posts. My thought too it was from coming to the heat again. We will see. Did a much shortened rife session today. Usually I seem to detox quickly so I'll see how it goes the next few days. Thanks again for replying. Beth
Can you tell me how many years your wife has been rifing?

Marne had an article showing that UV rays from sunlight causes Lyme to spread in the body. it appears to activate the Lyme.
My wife has been treated with the Rife machine for about four years. She is normal as anyone now, but not completely cured. Probably as close to being cured as she has ever been.
She has been having problems with her stomach. I assumed it was from Lyme, then I assumed it was from H-pylori. I eliminated the Lyme as the culprit, since she has too little of it now to cause this effect.
I ruled out H-pylori by treating her for it with the Rife machine. I know from my own experience that frequencies are real effective for this bacteria.
I spent three hours of intense research today, as she can't even eat at times. I finally figured out the problem, and I suspect many others here have a similar problem.
She had her Gallbladder removed twenty years ago or so. It has never bothered her much in the past. I read up on lack of Gallbladder and the problems it can cause. Bingo.
Her ability to digest fats is compromised because she does not have the store of Bile needed process fats and food in general. As she has aged, her ability to digest has diminished as happens with all of us with age.
I bought some digestive enzymes and we went out to eat. She had a Steak and Baked Potato with Butter. She would have been near puking yesterday eating that meal. She took the enzymes and ate her meal and felt fine.
I thought I would throw this out there since I know some other have had this puzzling problem.

Dan, I have tried several types of digestive enzymes and none have worked so far. Would you mind sharing the brand name you purchased?
Many thanks.

The ones i bought now are just what I could find locally, and are not exactly what I was looking for.
I have to do more research to find out which would be likely to work the best, but I think the ones with real Bile Salts are going to be closer to a persons own digestion process. I was looking close at Jarrow's Formula, or something like that.
The ones I have now are from GNC, but are probably not what we will end up getting.
