It's probably a herx - normal, unfortunately. Hang in there.

16th, and great on 17th. Now comes the 18th and had all the symptoms

came back with a bang along with being very fatigue. Is this normal or

should I call my LLMD.

I agree that it is probably a herxheimer reaction. But I would

suggest two things:

Call your LLMD. See what he/she suggests for this reaction. Get in

the habit of being in close communication with your physician.

Chart this on your calendar. Some people can pick up a pattern in how

they feel. Men sometimes can herx every 3 weeks. Women tend to every

4 weeks because of hormone influence. And some people have no pattern

at all. But if you can pick up a pattern it makes life a little more

predictable.

Best,

IT SOUND CORRECT. BUT TO BE SAFE GIVE HIM/ HER A CALL. MY TREATMENT WAS YEARS

AGO AND WAS WITH A CENTERAL LINE USING KEFLEX. SO CHECK. BUD
