i recently had a tooth infection, i had no insurance so i went to the ER. i was talking to the dr and told him about my lyme disease, he asked if i ever tried cleocin, i hadnt so thats what he described for the infection.

i went home and took the meds and i tell you i thought i was dead, i thought for sure i was allergic and i was so bad i couldnt even call the ER, i figured this is it, i'm dieing.

my head felt like it was going to explode, my arms wouldnt work right, couldnt move and i passed out. when i awoke about an hour later i couldnt believe it, i felt normal again, my vision wasnt blurred, i could think clearly, nothing hurt. whatever is in me did not like the cleocin.

i went for it and took the rest of the meds and i havent felt this good in 2 yrs, i could actually remember things, i didnt ache from head to toe my mind was clear. but as always good things have to come to an end and the meds ran out, i talked to the DR but he wouldnt give me anymore, oh well back to normal.

the only problem i noticed from taking the cleocin is my tongue hurts and is red and looks like it was sliced with a razor, anyone know that might be? anyone know where to get cleocin?

I would be interested to know if anyone else found relief with this drug.

Toxic mold was suppressing our immune systems, causing extreme pain, brain fog and magnifying symptoms. Four days after moving out, the healing began.

We have another thread going on clindamycin - three of us with CA Lyme exposure have done well with it - wonder if this med is strain-dependent.
