The procedure was pretty painful since i dont respond well to numbing medication so i felt everything they were doing!.. I got my first dose of IV Rocephin 2 grams at 1pm & 30 min into the drip i started slightly herxing.. Back pain, back of head pain, felt very drowzy & out of it...
I feel different im not sure how to describe the feeling yet since its only my first day. But i just definetly feel different, out of it, & very sleepy!

Just rest up since it seems to make many very fatigued the first week. Your brave, I have yet to get my picc line or first month of rocephin. I am having so much difficulty with oral abx, I dont have hte nerve.
Try to relax and take the naps you need. Don't push yourself, I found that our the hard way.
Have a restful night

Is there some idea why IV antibiotics "work" and then patients relapse w/ regard to neuro issues? Is it simply that the spirochetes are not dead and simply reinfect or is that the IV abx 'calm' the inflamation and sympotms then disapper?
