I hate being sick. I hate antibiotics. I hate this stupid flesh prison I’m living in

Update yayyy So I started taking AL Complex on Sunday night. Twenty minutes in, Herx Reaction. Holy shit. I have never experienced anything that awful. I couldn't move, I could barely breathe, I wanted to throw up. It was hell. I managed to smoke some and that made it possible to sleep. Woke up this morning, and my Wolf made me take it again, which I love him for even though I cried and fought him the whole time. Herxing started after 45 minutes. It wasn't as bad but that might be because I smoked before I took it and was pretty high. A few hours after taking it is was actually able to go to dinner and shopping with my mom and sister, only to collapse when I got home from exhaustion. Just took the third dose about an hour ago. No nausea anymore, my legs and back are still spasming occasionally though. Hopefully the worst has passed and I can spend my first full day with Wolfie in two months in a semi healthy state. Any who, that's where I'm at. For anyone who was wondering....

Step 2 -Herxheimer reaction-

So you got the Doxy antibiotic treatment, it worked for the first five-six days, you saw a heathy ray of hope shining down on you from the heavens above, you even had the energy, finally, to go out with friends and celebrate the good news, only to find yourself the seventh day down on the floor, with half of your face paralyzed, barely breathing, severe nausea, cold tingling lips and extremities,…

Ellory - starting a two week antibiotic treatment for SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth). Bring on the herx! Killing the bacteria releases toxins causing some of our symptoms to worsen for a time. Like fatigue, brain fog, feeling like we have the flu. But it should help us feel a little better soon. It’s nice to be able to do something. #sibo #herxing #lymedisease #xifaxan #chronicfatigue #ibs #gerd #brainfog #chronicpain #dissociativeidentitydisorder #alters #chronicillness https://www.instagram.com/p/B5qsdyWJA69/?igshid=1qz4u4p315i5p

I’ve been having night sweats in my bed all day. So what does that tell you?

I’ve been crap at posting but I wanted to give you all an update. I’m on week 3 of this herx. My wisdom tooth is all healed and I stopped having any pain from it for about a week and a half. I do have an area on my tongue that is still numb unfortunately. I’ve been doing everything that I can to shake this herx, but it’s not budging! I’m exhausted, weak, shaky and in a lot of pain. This is the worst I have felt in a few years. I was doing so well in March and April, so to have my health so miserable right now is very discouraging and mentally and physically hard for me to deal with. I feel as if I have taken 10 steps back and fell into a hole with no way out. When I feel awful I become distant as I don’t have the mental energy nor the physical strength to scroll through insta. I’m really struggling to put out my YouTube videos at the moment, and for the time being will only be posting once a week as I just don’t have the energy to edit. Hopefully things will turn around for me soon 💚 #ChronicLyme #LymeDisease #Bartonella #Herxing #LateStageLymeDisease #LymeDontKillMyVibe #LymeWarrior (at Nova Scotia)

Selfie Saturday ✌🏻💕 • • 100% do not look like this at the moment. I woke up with a migraine today and my body pain is really bad! Trying my best to make the pain tolerable, but this herx is making it hard! Sending hugs to anyone that needs them today💚 • • #SelfieSaturday #LymeDisease #Herxing #ChronicLyme #ChronicPain #Spoonie #LymeDontKillMyVibe (at Nova Scotia)
