Guest guest Posted December 14, 2000 Report Share Posted December 14, 2000 This past summer my Lyme literate physician advised me to take: Mag-Ox 400-600mg at breakfast for 14days, Slo-Fe add at dinner on the 15th day. I started this regimen along with my regular abx 1000mg of Biaxin and 400mg of Suprax daily, on September 1, by September 16, I was so ill that I ended up in ICU at my local hospital. I was never so sick in my life, and I was delirious and hallucinating, I had no memory of being taken to the hospital via ambulance. I woke up 24 hours later. When I saw my doctor on the 30th of September, he told me that other patients reported the increased herx while on this, but not to the severity that I did. He explained to me what the thought was behind taking these supplements and how it affected the Bb but I just don't recall what it was. Can anyone with a scientific mind explain why these supplements caused such a severe herx in me, I definitely have Neuro Lyme, with brain MRI's and PET Scan to support this. I should mention, I felt 100% normal from early November till just this past week when I had a symptom flare. I stopped taking the supplements as I could not bear to become that sick again, but I am considering restarting again after the holidays, after I speak to the doctor. Thanks in advance, Marta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
