Is this a herx? or...?

I'm on day 5 of Ammox - haven't even ramped up to full dose...am at 500 mg x 3 daily (am supposed to do 1000 x 3 plus probencid for enhancement) - haven't added the probencid yet.

I've always had nervous system involvement...vibrations/buzzing..but they seemed to be getting less significant....until the last couple of days...and especially today....
I feel terrible - my body is buzzing non-stop...and I'm also "nervous" feeling....it's definitely nerve related....but could it be a herx?? or since i'm treating lyme, could my bartonella be coming to the forefront? I've read it could be a bart symptom....

If it's not a herx...but bart...then do i have to suffer through it...my Dr. isn't wanting to treat bart for several weeks...
I feel horrible.

Girlie. I think you got a combination of two things happening. Your Lyme is dieing off, so you are herxing... This alone is a potent neurotoxin and can make people uncomfortable. Second, you are not taking doxycycline or Zithromax anymore, so your bartonella is not being treated.

So it's a combo of a Lyme herx and a bartonella flare up.

I don't react well to Amox, pretty bad in fact (but that was on 3000mg/day), gave me strong emotional herxes.

I had several stops in treating Bart, to give my body some much needed rest...
