Default orals versus IV

orals are great if you are realteivly new and not neuro-

if you are neuro you need IV or IM-

I needed 9 months of IV Rocephin- the first 6 I had no big changes at all!!!
One year of orals did NOTHING- I just got worse & worse!!!

Make sure to get treated for coinfections because they are the rule not the exception. In our 350 person support group from the last 8 years mayb 5 people have JUST had Lyme- the rest have all had mixed infections-

Babesiosis- Ehrlichiosis- which require different drugs- so you need a good LLMD!!!
Sincerely,
Sarah
