I´ve almost done any kind of treatment. better but still sick. The treatment that works as one of the bests is ceftriaxon i.v.+metronidazol i.v. i´ve done several months of this. also reaction to moxifloxacin, some to Ketek, clarithromycin, cumanda, mora, pure tetracycline some to malarone, some to minocyclin, biltricide for 2x 2 weeks (done antibiotics oral for 2,5 years and i.v. for several months
no or almost no reaction to doxy, azithromycin, levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, rifampicin, ivermectin, alinia, enula, mepron
don`t know if Albendazol did anything, no significant herx to it
positive for borrelia by western blot and for epierythrocytic bacteria attached to red blood cells by fry lab as well as for substanial amount of biofilms.
negative for protomyxzoa rheumatica by fry lab.
negatvive for babesia by fry lab blood smear, igenex and and other antibody tests
had extreme food intolerance, now better but still there, severe histamine problems, quite extreme hair loss which increased when I started antibiotics about 2,5 years ago, stopped some time ago but didn`t regrow so far.
my question: which bug causes this?? hemobartonella does not cause hair los, babesia does not as well, lyme does and mycoplasma does but both should not react to biltricide and should react to doxycyclin or azithromycin significantly.
bart should react to levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin but they didn`t do anything. should also react to rifampicin and to doxy.
on the third day of i.v. ceftrixon and metronidazol I start to feel worse e.g. cold and just blahhhh, lethargic but no real weekness.
getting cough from metronidazol.
Is this still the lyme? What is it?? It´s so difficult because all the time I don`t know which one I should shoot at. I a little sceptical because of my overuse of metronidazol. Altogether if I count the months together I`ve taken it (but not i a row of course) it´s more than 6 months.
metronidazol and tinidazol create taste changes in my mouth, I think this is a symptom that it is working.
What do you think could this be? Comments from own experiences welcome.

Hair loss can be caused by low thyroid. Have you had a thyroid panel done (TSH, FT4, FT3, RT3)?
