I just dont know what to do, i dont know what i have.....what abx to take etc. The bactrim seemed to help but was that residule help from the cedax and levaquin, i dont know.
Im afraid stopping is going to bring back more lyme symptoms. Maybe i do have a UTI...sigh
does anyone have any advice on this?
dr said to take diflucan and the abx ointment for the swelling down below. Ugh, im tired of this neuro lyme...tired of the pain.......differing opinions of dr etc.

Why did you stop abx? Because you felt "well?" [sorry, i missed this part..]

Some are reporting excellent results with Diflucan and Penicillin. Research the Dr. Schardt protocol.

the dr said to stop because bacteria wasnt cultured........ im so tired of being my own dr.
this morning i only urinated twice......usually it is much more then that.....so i wonder if the diflicun is working and it was yeast all along, i guess time will tell.
im supposed to be on cedax for the lyme...but in my opinion the bactrim helped better then any of them.

I guess give it time and see what happens. Is the pain subsiding at all? If its not better by Monday or Tuesday, I would call your dr again!!

At the very least, get some unsweetened cranberry juice and dilute it with water (very strong con- centrated) and drink throughout the day. That will help with any UTI.

can'tgiveup, try drinking a gallon a day of distilled water for several days and see if you can't clean up the kidney, bladder etc.
Take care, Pam
