I have been on antibx for only one week and I beginning to feel really out of it.  Almost as if I'm floating-in a dream.  It's very scary.  I have had terrible pressure headaches where I cannot concentrate on anything and I get very, very irritable.  I have also had a couple of episodes on days that I dosed where I felt really shaky--as if my whole body was shaking.  Almost felt as if I had had 100 cups of coffee.  My hands were very shaky.  I'm assuming that I am herxing.  I'm doing a lot of detoxing, baths, supplements, burbur drops, lots of water.  I also seemed to have started my period early.  Anyone know if that is normal? Thank you for any insight.  Happy Easter to all.

You mentioned 'whole body shaking' - have you had your thyroid and adrenal function evaluated?

The normal tests for these that most doc's would run really won't show anything until these organs are almost shot, so you would need to have had your T3 & T4 tested for your thyroid and a 24 hr. saliva test (I believe) for your adrenal glands.

These two things are all too often over looked when we are being treated for these infections. It only makes sense that our adrenal glands are suffering, as the stress of being quite ill for an extended time really takes a toll on it. When the adrenal glands are struggling, the thyroid tries to pick up the slack, and so it soon begins to struggle as well. If we support these two organs, we will undoubtedly heal faster!
