    DH has been taking OLE in capsule form for 5 months straight now and hasn't had any issues. He's taking the Seagate brand, which is my best friend's dad's company!

    July 2016: Laproscopic surgery to remove a ping pong ball sized endometrioma on left ovary and 3 pea size fibroids on outside of uterus. Hysteroscopy to remove one larger "penetrating fibroid" inside uterus.
    Oct 2016: Heartbroken after DH's vasectomy. Looks like my dreams of a daughter are gone.

    I don't want to sell anyone's experience short, but I personally am skeptical that the Herxheimer reaction is being caused by OLE taken by normal healthy individuals (this is usually something seen with people being treated with antibiotics for life-threatening diseases like syphillis and Rocky Mountain spotted fever and Lyme disease) and some herbologists like to take an actual thing and stretch it to support their notions.

    but like I already told Coffeepot, if she thinks it's causing her husband's fatigue, drop it and see what happens. I added it to my notes but no one else has reported it so far (I thought there were two but it was actually just Coffeepot twice LOL)

    Ha! Thanks everyone! I just wanted to make sure no one else is having trouble with OLE. I was having guilt thinking it had anything to do with the herbs.

    So, the mystery of hubby's fatigue has a more probable cause than OLE or Soy Milk. Long live my sway!!!

    Was he dealing with an infection of some kind? Your description sounds similar to something my DH was dealing with too (fatigue plus other male issues). Glad the OLE wasn't causing it though as I'm looking to add that to our sway!

    atomic- he's not on any supps yet. He's been dealing with reoccurring prostate infections and gets one about once a year.

    ok so just to clarify, he was NOT on the OLE when he was feeling poorly??

    having any kind of infection can knock you back to a greater or lesser extent, even mild ones. I've had a couple of mild bouts of mastitis that made me feel pretty sick even when it wasn't a real bad one. :/
