I just upped my dose to 4 drops today..I've been taking it for a couple of days..

Tonight after taking my samento and then 20 minutes later taking banderol, I got up to check on my son and make sure the doors were locked..

To my surprise my left leg was useless...I could bend my knee and propell my leg forward but it could have been a prosthetic for all practical purposes..

It felt SO heavy too. I was wondering if anyone else has herxed like this with the leg thing taking samento and banderol or one or the other.

I'm wondering if this is lyme or co infection herxing or both.

My left leg has neuropathy but can range from feeling fine to being numb from just under the knee down on the worst days..

Because it's not the same every day I suspect it is more than regular neuropathy but lyme related.

I havent felt anything from the samento/banderol at full dose 30 drops. I did notice a flu-like headache on the 3rd day of using these, that went away and havent had any problems since. I started a week ago.

I wonder if its working, or maybe it is and I just dont herx?

Today my leg is better but I feel like I've been hit by a truck. All over stiffness and swollen face/eyes.

My mouth feels like I've been chewing in a garbage dump all night geeez....

I feel like I have a hangover.

I feel like I've been hit by a truck, too. Samento and Oil of Oregano together = powerful stuff. These 100 degree temps not helping, either. I can't keep it cold enough in here lol

When I hit max label dose of OofO with the Samento (I upped it quickly), I was in bed one night and lost feeling in lower legs. They didn't go tingly-numb - I lost all sensation, dead weight, useless limbs like you described.

It didn't last very long, though.

Hope you feel better soon. Show that bacteria who's boss!

When I first started samento, I started out at 4 drops, BIG mistake!!! I am very sensitive to everything, and within a half hour, I was so dizzy, very faint, my head was sooooo foggy, I got a migraine and I my vision was super blurry. I am scared now to even try one drop!

I noticed yesterday I did 30 drops of samento, and immediately after swallowing it I got a deep stomach pain, which I thought was weird? Must have attacked something lol.

My husband and I like it very cold at night...Like close to 60 degrees..

Our central Ac in this house won't cool lower than around 74 or 75 during the day when its really hot outside...

So we got an ac for the window and it works great. I sleep SO much better now.
