Just wondering if Cipro is a good abx. Plus, if you used it, for how long?

Thanks for your comments.

Not for Lyme, but for bartonella.

Lymetoo.. thanks. Are you saying it's not good for lyme or that you didn't take it for lyme?

Both.

If someone says it does work for Lyme, I stand corrected. I've been here a long time and have never heard of anyone using it for Lyme.

My LLMD said it is not for Lyme, but for bartonella. I took it for a GI infection and felt so much better on it that my LLMD diagnosed me with bart and put me on Levaquin, which is much stronger and in the same family of drugs.

I used Levaquin for three months.

My LLMD says that family of meds hits Lyme also but that no one really knows this.

Its a broadspectrum ABX interfering with DNA replication. I think it is very likely it works vs lyme as well. biggest problem I see it can interfere with our DNA replicaiton too - not good
