Has anyone been prescribed Mytomycin C (cancer treating drug) for Lyme? Is it even prescribed for Lyme?

"One involved an anti-​​cancer agent called Mit­o­mycin C, which com­pletely erad­i­cated all cul­tures of the bac­terium in one fell swoop. How­ever, Lewis stressed that, given Mit­o­mycin C’s tox­i­city, it isn’t a rec­om­mended option for treating Lyme dis­ease, "

I had asked my doc about anabuse too ,he not willing to guinea pig ..
some asked about curza99 they are in phase 3 and evasapi paper on venom is due ...i had joked about chemo for lyme but anecdotly i have heard some cases of remission afterward ...

Hey, ole blue! Good to see ya, bud. Hugs.

I know. It's kinda nuts but also kinda logical that I'd try certain things to get rid of this junk. Wow.

Mitomycin C isn't ever prescribed for Lyme, they think it's too toxic. That might change though.
