Hey all! I had my first time two nights ago. Background on me: I'm only very slight (49kg, 5'7 - don't worry I eat and am in very good health). I have super low blood pressure and am prone to anxiety but it's never been a huge concern unless going through a stressful time, but manage it with herbs and meditation during those times. I guess I am super sensitive to things physical and energetic. A true vata type if you know about ayervedic practices.
ANYWAY the experience was intense and I was still vomiting 4 hours later and feeling horrible. When I got home around 11.30pm I couldn't sleep properly and my mind was racing as was my heart, was also unsure if I may vomit again. I felt bad the next day too, super wiped out and thought I'd be fine to sleep the next night but no, same deal! My mind was racing big time and I couldn't sleep again! I had to take a herbal sleeping tablet. Now it's the morning two days on and I still feel rather anxious. I rarely have problems sleeping...I sleep at least 8hrs a night no worries.
Just wondering if others have experienced this and wondering if it's a shock to my body, that'll settle down in time?

Hey Tengri, welcome to this quiet forum. I haven't posted in quite some time, but thought I'd share with you that I too have experienced similar reactions to this medicine. I've been working with kambo for several years and anytime I take a significant break (at least a few months), the first time I apply the medicine again I will end up struggling through the night with what you described -- restlessness, anxiety and racing thoughts. I take it to be an immune response of some sort or it could even be viewed as a dislodging (purging to partial purging) of stuck energies or re-balancing of hormones (all guesses, of course) . Mine usually subsides before the second night, however it has lasted a few days once or twice.
At any rate, I wouldn't be deterred from giving this medicine a chance if I were you. More than likely you'll come out the other side better off, although kambo can certainly stir things up a bit. I've gained a lot from the frog vaccine and I usually find that my physical health and ability to withstand stress improves because of it and also, good things seem to come into my life at opportune times that seem to correlate with using the medicine, synchronicities aligning and all. It sort of helps one to get on the right track with their life, imo.
This initial reaction should settle down and it could very well be that you got a huge immune boost and are experiencing your body attacking disease, imbalance or uncleanliness within.
