My 7 year old went off about a week ago? He has been having some random complaints ever since. "Eyes feel weird", "dizzy" and tonight his stomach hurt.
He sounds a little congested in his nose, so not sure if it's that, or a reaction to not taking meds (he was taking zith and omnicef), or perhaps still lyme kicking around in there.
I'm really glad he's off the antibiotics, think he needed a rest, so for now I'm just taking note of his complaints.
So, my question.... how did you feel when stopping meds? Thanks....

I took a six month break from abx after treating for two years. All of my symptoms held steady for about four months.
The fifth month the old aches and pains (etc) starting to rear their ugly heads.
It is allergy season so that could be causing the congestion.
I'm bumping this up for others to see....
