      It would be more clever if the function knew which key was used to call
   the macro (the macro would have to pass this) and rebind THAT.  As it is,
   hitting C-\ will just call the macro again, so you get the effects you
   described.  The isearch function will insist on you using C-s to repeat the
   search. (or you could then press C-r to reverse the search, but that
   doesn't help :-))

Set the variables search-repeat-char and search-reverse-char to the
characters you wish to use to repeat the search or switch it to a
reverse search (and repeat the reverse search).  In your case, you
would set search-repeat-char to 28, which is the ASCII code for C-\.
