The reason most of the time that symptoms restart when starting on a new Protocol, especially one like Buhner's is that you most likely still have an infection. This is most likely a Herx. The homeopathic remedy is working to slowly help your body heal. Buhner's Protocol is more aggressive. Using them both together, but not taken at the same time (hope whoever prescribed you the remedy explained how to take a homeopathic remedy) can help cause a big dent into these bugs. Though, it is true that some of the botanicals can have an adverse effect, especially if it lowers your blood pressure. Check your pulse, if it's fast and your blood pressure is on the low side, than that will result in palpitations. You should can then lower the botanicals to 1 drop 3 times per day and increase 1 extra drop 3 times per day every day until you get to a full therapeutic dose. If you have a Herx at anytime during your increase to full therapeutic dose, then hold at that dose until the Herx stops (this may take a day or more, even up to weeks). If both your pulse and blood pressure are normal, then it may be neurological, and Buhner's Protocol is very powerful since many of the botanicals can get into your central nervous system. To me it sounds like a Herx, but be sure to keep seeing your cardiologist on a monthly basis. If he/she rules out any major pathology, outside of Lyme/Co-infections, than most likely what you are experiencing is a Herx and should go away over time as you knock these bugs back.
Best wishes and God bless!
