In re-reading Buhner's book on Lyme for the gazillionth time, I decided to try some Biosil to help with my peripheral nueropathy.

I couldn't find information anywhere as to whether or not it can cause a herx so I started with 6 drops...this was Tuesday night.

Well, I am dealing with my worst-ever herx. Any herx I've had on herbs previously would last just a few hours with an increase in detox.

Things were so bad that I didn't take any more Biosil or antimicrobial herbs yesterday and I'm still deciding about today.

Somehow, I'm thinking the Biosil is to blame (I found some info that Dr. K uses it as adjunct biofilm therapy but I'd been treating for biofilm for awhile so I'm not sure about that connection).

Does anyone have any insight to share?

Dummy me just now thought to Google silicon or silica and herx.

Lo and behold, I've been finding stuff like this:

I resumed my antimicrobial herbs this morning and opted out of more Biosil. I obviously need to start Biosil more slowly (and will need to find a convenient time to herx lol)

We use Biosil as per Klinghardt to detox aluminum. 4 drops 2x daily and have had no observable herxing from it.
