Hi Mrsd-

Thanks so much again for the response!

My first symptoms were neurological in nature and I was lucky enough after several years of doctors not believing anything was wrong to finally find a physician who came up with the idea of testing me for lyme and then finding other doctors who ordered additional neuro testing, skin biopsies, etc.

The small fiber neuropathy preceded any antibiotics that I took and preceded my lyme diagnosis. I did find that IV rocephin helped my symptoms to some degree but IVIG was much more effective.

So I don't think it could have been the antibiotics that caused the SFN since I didn't start taking the antibiotics until after my symptoms had already developed and after I got the lyme diagnosis.
