My daughter has been feeling pretty well for the past several weeks. She went on a drug holiday

over the weekend because of what we assume is

yeast on her tongue. Anyway, today she started

back on her 3000 mg Amoxicillin and 1000 mg Tini

and is feeling bad. Sore back and neck, knees,

fatigue and overall crappy..could this be a herx

that fast??? I hate this she seemed to have

felt better off the abx... Any ideas?

Probably a herx. I sometimes herx within just a few hours after starting an antibiotic.

It could also be systemic yeast. If her tongue was

that bad. What is she taking to prevent that?
