Sorry for all the questions...still figuring all this out.

Since oral abxs usually don't cross the BBB, I was wondering if shots do.

Thanks [Smile]

Hey Life lyme....
Have you used bicillin? if so, did you respond well to it?

Minocycline is doing a great job for me right now and it crosses the BBB
